How do you keep your feet cozy!?

Ive been having a hard time with my ski socks lately. I bought some DC socks last season (I know they're 'snowboarding' socks but they're pretty thin and thought id wing it) I wore em last season and loved them, and now this season they're itchy as fuhhhhck. I haven't done anything different, I never shave during the winter so I don't think that should've changed it.

Just curious what you ladies wear for socks and what you've found to work for you!

Have you tried stance socks?
I got yelled at by boot fitters saying they were too thick for ski boots but I enjoy them.
Also smart wool ski socks I love.

Smart wool!! I have like 5 pairs and I'm obsessed. I have the hardest time keeping my toes warm. Also check Targed cause they have some pretty high quality warm wool socks. Those are my second fave

Another huge fan of smartwool socks. I can't fit thick socks in my boots so they are perfect for me.

Bridgedale control fit is the way to go. I buy a men's small since I've had a tough time finding their women's equivalent.

sounds like you're allergic to wool. My mom is the same.

Smartwool or vermont tough ski socks are my favorite. They're designed for ski boots, and haven't failed me yet! They tend to last way longer than cheaper ones in my opinion, and if you're feet are small, save some cash and buy kids ones.

I bought Burton socks (even though its for snowboarding) they are so thick and warm. Seriously I would check em out. Also, your feet can get cold if you sweat in them. Try wearing different socks until right before you put your ski boots on! It can make a world of difference trust me.
