As mentioned earlier in this focus this was my first time Snowboarding and I had no preconceptions about any of the products I would be testing however I was thinking have I made a mistake when pulling the Sidas Ultra Think Socks out of my suitcase while looking at what everybody else had packed, it felt like a PE Lesson at school and inferiority struck again over the lack of sock girth!

However it was too late now to organise a Plan B I had arrived - so I put the socks on and thought well at least they are comfortable even if I do freeze to death later!  If I am honest I had completely forgotten about the socks as I was more scared about being dragged up the mountain backwards on a button lift or maiming a small child.  When I noticed these socks was when I went back to the chalet for lunch, I took my boots off and my socks were dry, I then couldn’t remember any point where I had felt the cold.  I brought two pairs of these socks and I only had to use the one, they are awesome and not only do they keep you warm but they didn’t make my feet sweat either.

The reason these socks worked so well is that they are developed with X-Socks technologies and the thinness of the fibre in the mesh and the semi synthetic materials used provide comfort and thermal regulation in all situations. Highly recommend and save room in your suitcase! RRP £44
