Classic Hike Light Cushion Crew Sock

Merino Wool is renowned for its softness, lightweight nature, and breathability. It naturally wicks moisture away from your skin, keeping your feet dry during activities like hiking. Additionally, it regulates temperature, ensuring your feet stay warm in cold weather and cool in warmer conditions, making it an excellent choice for outdoor adventures.

Recycled Nylon is made from repurposed materials, such as old clothing and plastic waste. By using recycled materials, we help reduce landfill waste and the environmental impact associated with producing new nylon. Choosing products made from Recycled Nylon supports a more sustainable and eco-friendly approach to fashion.

Crew Height socks rise to the mid-calf, providing essential coverage and protection for your lower legs. This height helps prevent chafing from boots and shields your skin from brush or debris on trails. They are designed to enhance comfort and support during long hikes, making them a practical choice for outdoor enthusiasts.

"Cushion" refers to the padding in the sock that enhances comfort and support. A sock with "light" cushion offers some padding without being overly thick, allowing for a snug fit in your shoes while still providing comfort during activities. This balance helps reduce fatigue and discomfort during long walks or hikes.

While these socks are specifically designed for hiking and backpacking, their comfort, moisture-wicking properties, and cushioning make them versatile enough for various activities. Whether you're walking, running, or engaging in casual outdoor activities, these socks can provide the support and comfort you need.

When selecting socks for hiking, consider factors like material, height, and cushion. Look for Merino Wool for moisture management and temperature regulation, choose Crew Height for added protection, and decide on the level of cushion based on your comfort preference. Additionally, think about the terrain and duration of your hike to ensure you have the right support for your feet.
