  • 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.
  • Lightweight socks balance breathability with responsive temperature regulation to keep feet comfortable all day.
  • 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 using the highest quality yarns, sourced from around the globe.
  • Unconditionally Guaranteed for Life - if these aren’t the longest lasting socks you’ve ever owned, return them for another pair.

Slightly too snug.

"Full disclosure up front: this is an atypical use case. I broke both ankles about 2 months ago. . . I am currently wearing two walking cast/boots (I'm still forbidden to put weight on one leg). Long and short of it is that I needed a tall sock for under the boots. This fits the bill. My only gripes are that the sock seems a bit taller than OTC might suggest and that it is pretty tight. The height of the sock (adult M) easily hits the crease of the knee (I'm 5'9, ~160, average/athletic build) and is a bit tighter than I'd prefer (especially if I were skiing. . . might be hard on circulation). I do love the pattern and colors, though. All in all, If my legs weren't . . . uh, altered, I'd totally rock these on the slopes. A little more girth in the weave would be nice though."

Best Socks Ever!!

Great but thick

"As I said in the other reivew for their lightweight sock they are thicker than expected. Are they amazing socks? Yes. Are they super lightweight? In my opinion, no."
