If you are reading this, you are part of a small and fortunate group of people a collective who understands the absolute power and magic of the mountains. Simultaneously humbling and thrilling, our interplay with nature and gravity becomes an undeniable force guiding our lives. We are blessed to know this feeling. This is not a new phenomenon by any measure, but the tools and means by which we commune with our surroundings continue to evolve and improve.
Our collective frontcountry and backcountry playgrounds demand respect and full commitment – equipment needs to work. Dissent Labs is the thought leader in performance socks, next-to-skin, and gear solutions for performance-outdoor and mountain-sport athletes. Whether it’s a quest for the most precise and consistent bootfit possible, a need for all-day-long comfort, or for maximizing performance (and by extension, safety) in the backcountry, Dissent offers purpose-built gear for those who obsess over the details that enhance their day. Our customers and our team athletes can always be assured they have the best tools possible for their chosen path.
These are exciting times to be in the mountains - let’s enjoy every moment.

“Seriously a game changer. One of those products that once you try, you’ll have a hard time wearing anything else without noticing all of the negative aspects of regular ski/snowboard socks. Your feet and calves gain a super supportive feeling that lasts all day, they don’t wrinkle, or move on the foot all day, even during long hard approaches / tours. Ill never spend big days in the mountains without them anymore.” - Spencer Romanchuk / Calgary, AB

“I’ve never had a ski boot fit better, feet feel more comfortable or been able to honestly say that I actually have more energy at the end of a long day due to rad feeling feet, until now!

“With a grim outlook of a torn MCL and prescribed carbon brace I tried the Boa Knee sleeve to take care of some hotspots and help keep the brace in place while skiing. The Sleeve gave an immediate feeling of support. The custom brace did stay in place and the pressure points were reduced. Even though the brace was custom made for me, 8 hours of wearing it was difficult. The Boa helped tremendously.” - Chris Christie / Squamish, BC

“I’ve been using Dissent socks for the last two seasons and it’s no exaggeration to say that pulling them on before a ride now feels like a part of the pre-ride ritual. They feel so good that I get anxious when my last pair is used up and I’m still a few days away from doing laundry. That feeling when you first pull them on and know that they’re going to stay in place for the whole ride is worth the cost – any other benefits are just gravy.” - Pete Roggeman / NSMB.com
