We got some more Smartwool socks. We are all pretty happy about this. Especially Nick, who is by his own admission “a man who enjoys a nice pair of socks”.

We only got one size and one color of one style - Smartwool Men's SKIING LIGHT Sock (closeouts). These aint no fancy PHD or nothing like that, no, this is an everyman’s sock. This is a skiing sock for the gentleman in the musty F150 who gets up at 5:15am on Saturday to beat ski traffic, pays full price for his day pass, drinks MacDonalds coffee, works an honest blue collar job, listens to the Dire Straights, and pays too much for health insurance. Men like these don’t need no sissy medium cushion ski sock, and they don’t need to be paying $20 a pop for them. No, a nice light pair of merino wool socks in an outdated pair of boots is all it takes to provide a cathartic ski day for America’s backbone.
