I can't decide if I should use hot chillis or another brand. Will the black ones work as well as the red ones? I ski 14% backwards, 24% park, 31.5% big mountain/powder, 19% park and 11.5% extreme backcountry. Oh I'm 4foot 2, 211 pounds. Thanks

If you don't wear siver or orage socks, you aren't even close to core. You might as well quit skiing.

dude the red ones are better for colder weather, and the blue ones are better for the warm weather
if you can get ones with flames on them they'll keep your feet even warmer!

I don't want silver or orange socks. Unless thats what all the cool xtreme park riders use. I would prefer black or red. Thanks though!

i heard lime green is in this year. oakley might make some antifreeze ones. you could also go for the battery-heated type if you plan on doing some glacier skiing.

for the most part ski boots are really warm. The reason ur feet get cold is beacuse they sweat. stop being a sissy and use any socks u can get. if ur feet are cold take a break and grab some food, take ur boots off and let your feet warm up. if u do this around 9-10 in the morning then ull be set for the rest of the day

Dude I suggest getting bootwarmer insoles and getting the red socks, the red work better by conserving 2% BTUs/hour than the black ones.

HA HA. go black for sure, reds so played, black lets you ride like T-hall.
But seriously people need to start riding in the X-sock, its got a left and a right sock and a two year garunteee so you have to register the sock on the internet. Its the most complicated sock Ive ever seen.

Sounds sick! What colours do they come in?
Are they looking for team riders 'cause I just got in a fight with my sock sponsor, punched my rep in the temple and got dropped.

the x-sock is great. just make sure you dont get a bootlegged version (i think champion is trying to make fake versions and stick the x-sock logo on them). you'll know as soon as you try to register the pair... and please, make sure you order the pair. there are some guys out there that could screenprint a picture of your mom on the sock too. those are rad.

you fail to mention that the anit freeze sock will keep all ice and snow awat from your foot/boot when skiing due to its anyifreeze properties. and flaming socks work better than battery heated crap.

Where did you get your info?
I have been online for weeks and can't come to a decision. I guess I will have to use last years socks. Hopefully no-one finds out it would be a disaster for my rep.

You are an idiot unless you get Armada socks, because they are the most core.

Me too. I am seriously worried about the future of skiing based on some of the post on this site. I imagine even after this post someone will be like" Fuck don't be so stoopid, jst get any sock"
Anyways I think I'm funny. (I know you all think I'm not)

just dont get line socks. i hear they are overweight and have a tendency to snap in half. the fatty sole is a good idea though.

i think you should go with the carbon fyber thruster tubes from hot chillis they will give you the perfomnace of a red sock with all the sleek and styly looks of a black sock.
I dont really mind what color my socks are, im really good soo that dosent matter. I just try and spend as much of my parrents money and buy all the "dopest shit ever" soo i can fool people to think im really good like i did just a few lines up.
