Emphasis on the SKI socks, darn tough makes some great ones, a lot of people think they want thick warm socks but you really want some thin merino wool, otherwise your feet will be killing you by the end of the day

The Darn Tough ski socks have extra padding on the shin area but aren't as thick around the foot. They're taller than your boots. You can get 'em in different thicknesses but I've found the thinner ones are plenty warm and it's easier to fit into your boots that way - ski boots aren't generally generously sized.
