Minimalist checklist: fit, comfort, style.

The Pennant sock checks all the boxes with its next-to-skin, no-slip boot connection, fatigue-easing arch support, Merino Wool performance, and a dash of drop-needle design. It’s the best sock for skiing and riding because it’s also Guaranteed for Life.

Our Verdict

The Darn Tough Pennant RFL Over-the-Calf Snow Socks are designed for those prioritising a lightweight, next-to-skin fit for skiing or snowboarding. At 72g (medium size), these ultra-light socks are crafted from a blend of nylon, merino wool, and Lycra spandex. The merino wool helps regulate temperature and wicks moisture, keeping feet dry and warm.

The over-the-calf height offers full coverage, making them ideal for snug-fitting ski or snowboard boots. As always with Darn Tough, these socks come with a lifetime guarantee, reflecting their high-quality construction.
