STERLING Snowboard Socks - The Jamie Nicholls PRO
Awesome snowboarding socks from a new British brand pioneered by Snowboarding's 2006 Winter Olympic Legend, Dan Wakeham and Nick Atkins,official photographer for the British Snowboard Team. These guys,along with Pro riders Aimee Fuller, Ben Kilner and Jamie Nicholls, have developed a funky range of socks for the active freestyle snowboarder.
Jamie's sock is a thicker sock.This could be for two reasons, one that he has girl feet or the other could be that he is so good at snowboarding that he doesn't even break a sweat. Jamie wanted a plain style sock which kind of resembles a football sock.
TECH
Using Acrylyester fiber technology and strategic silhouette construction, Sterling socks regulate your feet’s microclimate by keeping them warm and dry by getting sweat up and away from your skin. Ignore the old granny’s tale to wear two pairs of socks as feet crammed in to a boot will only make your feet colder. Proper circulation and mobility are your friends so Sterling place padding where you need it most, on the bottom of your foot. As you know, heat rises. As you also know, heat trapped in your boot creates a sauna effect, only there’s no exit and you’re trapped. Even on the coldest days your feet will eventually sweat in this claustrophobic climate. Sterling sock construction allows heat and moisture to rise and move away from your foot. The result is a foot that is dry and ready for some proper snow surfing action!
Sterling socks are made in panels of different thicknesses.
 | Areas 1 and 2 are in the landing zone. The toe and heel cup are thick for comfort. Area 3 has a reduced thread count for moisture management. Area 4 is Sterling's articulated joint area which is designed to prevent sock bunch. Area 5 has football sock tech which makes sure that when you pull them up, they stay up |

The socks are lightweight to prevent overheating, however if you are prone to cold feet then go for one of the thicker models such as the Aimee Fuller Pro or the Jamie Nicholls Pro sock.
