The Icebreaker Men's Ski+ Medium Cushion Over-The-Calf Socks are engineered for full-day comfort and performance on the slopes. Crafted from a premium, naturally odor-resistant merino wool blend, these socks feature medium-density cushioning designed to absorb shock and provide robust insulation. With a men's specific anatomical fit and targeted support zones, they guarantee your feet remain dry, warm, and securely locked into your boots from the first chair to the final run.
Specs & Features
Technical Specs
- Model Code: IB0A573P
- Height: Over the Calf (OTC) - specifically designed to rise fully above the ski or snowboard boot collar.
- Cushioning: Medium (strategic, medium-density padding along the shin, heel, and forefoot for impact absorption and warmth).
- Material Composition: Premium Merino Wool Blend (engineered with Nylon for structural durability and LYCRA® for active stretch and memory retention).
- Fit: Men's specific anatomical Left/Right design.
Key Features
- Maximum Shin Protection: Integrated medium-density padding along the front of the leg effectively absorbs impact and mitigates "shin bang" from rigid boot tongues.
- Anatomical Construction: Asymmetrical left and right mapping ensures a seamless, precision fit that completely eliminates bunching and wrinkling inside tight boots.
- Seamless Toe Closure: A smooth, bulk-free toe box prevents cold spots and painful friction over the sensitive tops of the toes.
- Breathable Instep: Strategically placed mesh ventilation panels over the top of the foot release excess heat and vapor, keeping feet dry and comfortable.
- Secure Support Zones: Elasticated ankle, Achilles, and instep support zones lock the sock firmly in place during aggressive carving and dynamic mountain movements.
Care Instructions
Maintain the loft, elasticity, and thermoregulating properties of your merino ski socks with these simple steps:
- Wash: Machine wash on a cold or warm gentle cycle. Always wash inside out.
- Detergent: Use a mild liquid detergent. Never use fabric softeners, as they coat the natural merino fibers, trap moisture, and destroy the wool's breathability and insulating power.
- Bleaching: Do not bleach.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or line dry in the shade.
- Ironing/Dry Cleaning: Do not iron. Do not dry clean.
X-Boundaries Professional Tips
- The Perfect Match for Standard Boots: While "Light" cushion socks are ideal for custom-molded, ultra-tight performance boots, these "Medium" cushion socks are perfect for standard-volume boots, rental boots, or boots whose liners have "packed out" (compressed) over a few seasons. The extra loft fills dead space, giving you better control and superior warmth.
- Never Double Up: It can be tempting to wear two pairs of socks on a sub-zero day, but this is the number one cause of cold feet. Layering socks restricts blood flow and creates friction. Trust the thermal power of a single, high-quality pair of medium-cushion merino socks.
- Base Layer Discipline: To prevent severe shin pain, ensure your thermal base layer pants stop above the top of this sock. Overlapping your thermals and your ski sock creates a thick, painful pressure ridge right on your shin bone the moment you lean forward into your stance.

Bought this strap to attach to my Montbell hat, the strap is of high quality and the adjustment of the buckle is smooth and easy.
Material looks good, I have used their short sleeves before and it works very well in hot and humid weather. Now trying out their long sleeves and would expect it to be the same.

Montbell Thermal Men's Trail Action Jacket - CLIMAPLUS® Active
This is to replace what I’d lost on a recent trip. The goretex works very well, shielded me from sudden downpour. The cap is also very fitted for me, not all caps can do. Though the price here in SG is $20 more than what I got from Japan but it’s worth the buy!
