About this piece

Whether you're sliding past the backcountry gates or one of the first to get through, the low bulk Outer Limits sock is built for long days in ski/ride boots. Made from lightweight, thermoregulating merino wool, these alpine-ready socks are back by popular demand, featuring an all-new tech foot and terry loop cushioning for added comfort when traveling out of bounds.

About the artist

Ric Cabot's family has been making socks in the same Northfield mill since 1978. When cheap imports nearly killed the business, Ric pivoted to premium merino wool and slapped an unconditional lifetime guarantee on every pair. The bet worked. Darn Tough now knits over 30,000 pairs a day, employs 300+ Vermonters, and has an estimated return rate under 3%. The guarantee isn't a gimmick — it's a quality control mechanism that forces them to build socks that simply don't wear out.
