Shin bang is no joke people. It kills the joy in any downhill adventure in no time. Don’t underestimate the importance of a quality sock and consider adding Snow Shield to your on-mountain equipment quiver. This lightweight model gives you a double whammy of bliss with a built-in liner and an extra cushioned shin panel. The patented INgenius™ sock and liner in one moves moisture from the inside out to keep your feet dry while Merino Wool insulates. If you need a little extra shock absorption in the front of the boot, this is just the ticket.
