They look like they could be good socks, yet that price is extremely high. Not sure how supportive a sock can really be in a ski boot. Maybe better suited to a softer snowboard boot?

Smartwool and Fox River make some excellent socks in the $15-$20 range that would serve anyone well.

I would like to try them but was thinking the same thing as you about how supportive it could be. I don't think they are all abiut support though. Cushion comfort and warmth was mentioned as well.

andyzee has some cool socks with an L and R on them. Rumor is they make him ski really fast.
