It's going to be a glorious day on the slopes. The sky is blue, the sun is shining and the snow is like a movie. But there's one thing that's going to spoil your fun: foot problems. It's the same story every winter: you suffer from unbearable foot pain after just a few hours in your ski boots, and you accept it as inevitable! Well, this situation is not normal, and we've come up with a solution: our new Protect Evo ski sock.
A high-performance ski sock that reaches new heights in terms of comfort. Specially designed to meet the needs of the most sensitive skiers, our Protect Evo ski socks offer incomparable softness, optimum breathability & shock-absorbing shin protectors.
‘A ski sock specially designed to meet the needs of the most sensitive skiers’.
Why is foot protection essential when skiing?
Firstly, because it affects your pleasure and your performance: if your feet hurt, you enjoy the moment less, but you're also less precise in your trajectories. Secondly, foot protection is becoming an issue because of the rigidity and narrowness of these ski boots, which have been a nightmare for some skiers.
Foot pain can occur in several places: the heel, the toes, the malleolus and, very often, the shin. All these strategic areas therefore deserve specific protection.

How can you avoid shin pain in your ski boots?
Your shins are undoubtedly the most stressed area of your body when you put on those narrow ski boots. It's all down to that famous ‘forward lean’ that your instructor has taught you and then harped on endlessly from your very first turns. The pressure exerted on your shin by the tongue of the boot can turn your day into an ordeal.
To say goodbye to pain and hello to comfort, there are two solutions:
- The first option is to use - like our top-level alpine and freeride athletes - specific shin guards that you slip under your sock.
- The second option is called the Protect Evo ski sock. The ultimate in comfort in the land of technical socks. This high-performance ski sock features innovative shin reinforcements, an incomparably soft feel and perfect moisture management.
