Introducing the
Le Bent Elyse Saugstad Pro Series Snow Sock - the world’s first women’s-specific backcountry sock!
This is version 2.0 of the world's first, award winning, specific backcountry sock… but with a mighty twist! Pow(d)er couple Elyse Saugstad and Cody Townsend have spent years dominating burly lines and big mountain feats. Then after Cody spent several years detailing what would be required to make the best backcountry sock, Le Bent stepped in to help make it happen. Along with a unique merino blend, technical know-how and Cody’s vision, this sock was built for the way up to send on the way down.
The Elyse Saugstad Pro Series has exactly the same technical features as the Cody Townsend Pro Series, with Elyse putting her mark on it by adjusting the sizing to be a more women’s specific fit. Slightly shorter in the foot length and leg of the sock. And finally, a stunning aesthetic which speaks to the mountains we play in.
FEATURES1. Silicone Ankle Locks: strategically placed bonded silicone strips across the rear of the ankle, eliminating foot slip and avoiding the infamous anxious sock-bunch.
2. Silicone Cuff: Adding a silicone ring to the top cuff keeps socks standing tall, without claiming hairs, so you can break trail without your socks going flaccid.
3. Toe Box Cushioning: More cushion in this high-impact area improves comfort and extra warmth over your foot fingers.
4. Shin Compression Area: Slight compression to the shin & calf areas, helps to manage lactic-induced fatigue.
5. Mesh Ventilation: New mesh ventilation zone increases breathability across the top of the foot, letting moisture and steam release from the top of the foot.
