All-mountain. All American. The Captain goes big on comfort and cushioning with patriotism and pride. Just like every single one of our socks, it's still made in Northfield, Vermont, USA.

Weight: Midweight
Pair with: Ski boots, snowboard boots, winter boots
Style Number: 1818
  • Men's over the calf socks average 17 in. from heel to cuff - expect them to cover the leg to just below the knee.
  • A performance fit means no slipping, no bunching, no boundaries. Here's to feeling connected and comfortable in your boots run after run.
  • Merino Wool has a natural ability to move heat and moisture, keeping skier's and rider's feet warm and dry.
  • All-season performers, midweight socks naturally adapt to keep your feet at the right temperature.
  • Reinforced Achilles cushion reduces heel lift, which helps socks feel better on and last season to season.
  • We close every toe seam using our True Seamless™ Toe technology for an ultra smooth, undetectable feel.
  • The “still” in Still Made in Vermont, USA is personal. We knit all our socks at our VT-based Mills - we can't imagine it any other way.
  • Unconditionally Guaranteed for Life - if these aren’t the longest lasting socks you’ve ever owned, return them for another pair.

A Benefit - we're Saving Money

Q&A

Though technically not a compression sock, is there some “compression” that might otherwise help with reducing fatigue and increasing comfort over the day?
