Jimmy Chin - with his fear of the indoors - has directed award winning films - taken timeless photographs - oh - and he was part of the first American team to ski off the summit of Mount Everest. If that fails to convince you these are a pair of socks worth having in your wardrobe we're not sure what will - but the stripe and gradient design - along with tonal mountain shapes might help. With graduated compression for great circulation - breathable performance mesh throughout the socks and arch support - the Backcountry Ultra Light socks from Stance are an ideal choice for colder weather.
