The Darn Tough Women’s Traverse Over-the-Calf Lightweight Ski Sock with Padded Shin (Style 8022) in Eclipse is a women’s ski-specific sock with a padded panel running along the front of the shin — the area that takes the hardest pressure from a rigid ski boot tongue on long runs. A lightweight cushion layer sits along the base of the foot, and True Seamless toe construction closes the sock smoothly so there’s no rubbing inside a high-performance women’s boot.
The blend — 52% Nylon, 43% Merino Wool, 5% Lycra Spandex — leans nylon-heavy for durability under aggressive ski boot wear, while the merino percentage handles moisture management through cold morning chairlifts and warmer lodge breaks. The lightweight build keeps the foot low-profile inside the boot liner, and the 5% spandex keeps the shaft from slipping mid-run. Eclipse is the dark women’s colorway.
