dude I agree with your first statment, but how do socks bunch up at your shins? how freakin loose are your boots??

and soccer socks aren't too good the fabric generally isn't as comfy and definately not as warm as some nice smartwools or any kind of actual ski sock. worthwhile investment.

you arent supposed to ski in cotton socks, they absorb sweat.....ski in wool or synthetic wool

I dare everyone here who skis in ankle socks to wear them in there boot somewhere else other then new jersey. NEVER wear cotton any where on your body when you ski.

I'm rocking synthetic socks that go past my ankles but not up my shins. My shin-length soccer socks always used to bunch up.

i do on warm days because they are cooler. i do sometimes too because it feels nice sometimes. i think my leg hair hurts more when i use ski socks. it makes the toe and footbed of my boot feel different

Ankle socks? never have.

I'm usually barefoot in my boots, or in ski socks if the day is really cold.

Ripping out leg hair??? The liner is doing that- what's the deal?

I've never had that problem (and yes, I do have some leg hair), and I'm almost never wearing socks, either.
