Le Bent Cody Townsend Pro Series Zero Cushion — Merino Ski Touring Sock

Semi-compression zero cushion profile with shin and calf compression for precision and snow feel

Anti-blister silicone heel grippers and a technically knit Achilles band to minimize heel lift on the skin track

Definitive Fit System™, Foot Moulding Memory Stretch™, anti-wrinkling instep, and mesh ventilation for airflow on the bootpack

Q1: How do I find the right size Le Bent Cody Townsend sock?
Size by your shoe size using Le Bent's chart. S fits US men's 3–5.5 / women's 4–6.5 (Mondo 21.5–23.5). M fits men's 6–8.5 / women's 7–9.5 (Mondo 24–26.5). L fits men's 9–11.5 / women's 10–12.5 (Mondo 27–29.5). XL fits men's 12–14.5 / women's 13–15.5 (Mondo 30–33). A touring sock should fit snugly with no bunching, so if you're between sizes, our staff can help you choose in-store.

Q2: Is the Cody Townsend Pro Series compatible with modern ski touring boots?
Yes. Le Bent recently removed the extra toe-box cushioning after feedback from Townsend and the backcountry community that modern touring boots no longer need it. The zero cushion profile and anti-wrinkling instep keep the sock thin and flat inside the boot.

Q3: What's the difference between the Cody Townsend and Elyse Saugstad Pro Series socks?
Both are zero cushion backcountry socks with the same technical features, including silicone heel and calf grippers, shin and calf compression, and mesh ventilation. The Elyse Saugstad has a women's-specific fit with a slightly shorter forefoot and leg height. The Cody Townsend uses Le Bent's standard sizing and comes in Black.
