Merino Wool Low-Cut Hiking Socks – Breathable Ankle Socks for Men & Women, Anti-Blister for Outdoors, 3-Pack

I have been getting back into hiking and had purchased a pair of Darn Tough hiking socks. I live in a warmer climate and wanted enough cushion with plenty of breathability. They are nice socks, but fairly expensive. I wanted some less expensive but still quality socks for when I wear my hiking boots or shoes but was not doing a longer hike. These looked to tick those boxes. I have worn them quite a few times now for both full day wear with my hiking boots and for shorter hikes. Honestly, I like these better than the more expensive pair. These have a little better cut and a little better stretch making them easier to get on and off. They fit well, are comfortable, have enough padding, yet are thin enough to breath well. They are even more comfortable than the Darn Tough socks. If you are looking for a quality hiking sock at an affordable price, these are a great choice.

These are winners! Bought these for husband, and crew socks for myself for a recent 2 week trip to Scotland where we’d be doing a lot of walking in damp conditions. They worked great! Kept our feet warm and dry- even if the socks got damp. They were worn several days without washing and didn’t get stinky, despite being in hiking boots all day long. Dried quickly when wet. Sizing is true to size. No uncomfortable seams. Thick, but didn’t make boots fit differently. Have machine washed quite welll and I hang them to dry. I feel they’re as good as the expensive pair I got at REI. Would definitely buy more if needed.

I wear a US size 11 got the large according to the size chart. They seem a little big. I’ll need to wash and see if they shrink up some.

Great socks

These are thin wool socks, perfect for summer and for work out/running. Once you wear them a few times and then wear cotton socks again, you will want to throw out all your cotton socks.

The socks were were I call 1/4 hiking socks, just past your ankle bone. The socks were pretty thin, but otherwise were pretty good. I would probably still take a darn tough sock, but the Danish socks were only about 1/3 the price. Both were comfortable. I will be wearing both types in my next long hike in order to test durability.

They have warmth and a good feel. I wash them on gentle cycle in cold water and let them air dry.

Excellent! Comfortable. Fit well. Wash well.
