These socks are a good inch (or more) taller than any other crew socks. I haven't tested it, but I'm pretty sure they'd clear ski boots. There's just no reason for it, so it's annoying to have extra fabric bunched up. They're also pretty tight around the calves if you have mountain biker calves. I'm hoping this relaxes over time. The tightness and extra height also compound each other, making the socks somewhat uncomfortable on the legs in general. I'm not returning them though because I love the feel of the foot portion, which is just as great as Point6's other products. I ordered 4 pairs of crew socks, of three different designs, and they all fit like this. It's a trade-off that's acceptable since I already own the socks (and love the feel of Point6 in general), but will prevent me from ordering any more crew socks in the future.

My wife and I have been fans of Point 6 for nearly as long as Point 6 has been making tootsie wear. We’ve tried the competition - if you want to call it competition - but none wear as well, keep their shape, last as long, are as comfy, are as well priced (thanks for occasional “insider” sales), and keep our tootsies as healthy and happy as Point 6! We wear Point 6 socks nearly every day.

fun socks good cause

I still have 2 pair of Point 6 socks from many years ago. They are a bit stretched out, but not worn out. The new socks fit snug and will for many years. My olds ones I wear around the house in the winter since it’s too cold to go barefoot, so stocking foot is the next best thing!

These Sandhill Crane socks are designed to keep you warm and cozy while the cranes are away (migrated) from Colorado. Did you know cranes use mountains and rivers to navigate their flyways?! See you again soon in the Yampa Valley Sandhills!
