ABSTRACT:
A forward lean sock, that is particularly suited to snowboarding is provided. The snowboarding sock includes a woven sock body having a leg section and a foot section joined by a heel and front arch. The heel includes a Y-heel construction that provide an enhanced pouch of material at the heel to remove tension at the opposing front arch so that bunching is minimized in a forward lean position. The toe section can include reduced padding or a flat weave with no padding to provide more freedom of toe movement for the wearer.
