Our Verdict
Darn Tough Outer Limits RFL Over-the-Calf Snow Socks are built for adventure. These lightweight, performance-oriented socks provide the perfect balance of warmth, breathability, and protection for long days on the slopes or in the backcountry. Including merino wool ensures that your feet stay dry, no matter how much you sweat, while the specialised shin padding helps absorb pressure from ski boots, reducing discomfort during extended use.
They're surprisingly light for over-the-calf socks at just 84g (for a medium), and their snug fit ensures no slipping or bunching inside your boots. If you're looking for socks that won't quit on you, these come with a lifetime guarantee, a bold testament to their durability. The Vermont-made quality is evident, and the thoughtful design, with mesh panels for added ventilation, makes them ideal for serious skiers and snowboarders.
Durable, comfortable, and designed to keep you warm and dry, these socks are essential for any winter sports enthusiast looking to push their limits.
