After nearly a decade of regular mountaineering, I am having this issue first time. And, I am almost sure to claim that it may not be because of the shoes that I use since I have been using them for close to an year and half. Those shoes are ankle high. Material of the socks that I have tried are typically nylon and cotton. Haven't tried wool yet. I am certain that I am not using a pair of over-sized socks, because I had been using the same size for years.

Problem: While hiking down a lengthy sharp descent, over the time my socks seems to roll towards the toe. Its not a really big problem, but at times its annoying.

I have tried different socks so far and eventually after a more or less time each of them end up doing the same.

Have you ever had such an issue?
