Inspired by the red-blinkers and multi-colored mushroom flags which light up Tuesday night Utah Skimo events...."Spent the night in Utah in a [pain] cave in the hills."

This is a major upgrade to the WSP. There is slightly more mass (my pair is under 800gms, as opposed to Skimo.co's testing), but this not noticeable on the uphill compared to my WSP's.

Unlike other heated socks and chemical toe-warmers, the 6.0 socks barely take up more room than a conventional ultra-thin ski sock. The heating element only surrounds the toe box, and this is the only area where you may need to ...
