ABSTRACT:
This sock is particularly adapted for use with ski boots and the like and the leg portion is provided with terry loops extending inwardly of the inner surface to provide additional fabric thickness for cushioning the leg of the wearer against chafing by the top and upper edge of the ski boot. The sock is provided with an upper cuff portion of rib knit fabric with elastic yarn incorporated in the upper portion thereof to draw the upper end of the sock inwardly when the sock is relaxed and to aid in maintaining the upper edge of the sock in snug engagement with the leg of the wearer. Color bands are provided at the upper and lower ends of the leg portion to aid in defining the area of the leg portion in which the terry loops are formed.
