Smartwool Trekking Crew Socks - Men’s Heavy Cushioned Wool Performance Sock

These are the most confortable socks. However I bought these 'heavy crew' for a week long backpacking trip in the Grand Canyon thinking they'd be more cushiony when ive been using the lighter weight Smart Wool socks and had broken in my boots with the lighter socks. These will work well for people who are used to thicker socks or with my mountaineering boots. It was a mistake on my part to get the new heavy crews for the first time on a long trip ... but after my trip and a blister on my arch from the friction of a thicker sock than I'm used to, I been wearing these around like slipper socks or with my crocs. So comfy. I'm sticking with the lighter weight smart wool socks for my regular hiking boots. But it was my mistake so not sure it's fair to lower a point, especially when these socks are so comfortable for other uses I don't regret buying them now that my trip is over and im using them for other things other than with my regular hiking boots. Smart wool always makes high quality socks. Just need to choose the right kind for your specific use. As a backpacker/hiker/mountaineer I should have known better.

I own several different types of smartwool socks. Hiking, dress, and running, and this is the first pair that isn’t “5 starts”.They’re great socks; they keep my feet warm In my Iron Ranger boots, but they peel fuzz balls at the ankles. These are the only pair that have ever done that. I believe it’s from the extra layer of fabric they put in the socks. It’s not a big deal, and they serve there purpose of keep my feet warm and cozy.

I purchased this item for myself. I love them, they are so warm and comfy. They are quite thick but I have worn them under my winter boots, garden boots and ice skates with no problem. Due to the thickness of these socks they add quite a bit of comfort to all of them.I wear a size 7 women's shoe and they are just a bit too large, I think I will order the smaller size too. The size I purchased, meduim, fits women's shoe size 7-8 1/2, so I am at the lower end of this size according to the Smartwool company's website. My husband wears a side 8 1/2 men's shoe (which is the upper end of this socks fit) so I may pass these (unisex socks) on to him, I think they will fit. If not, no problem, they do fit me well enough that I will definitely wear them, I was just thinking he would love a pair too!http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000UZDB1U?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00

I bought these socks because I was tired of my feet getting cold while working outside. These bad boys can go down to 32 degrees easy and, while they won't keep your feet hot, they won't be cold either. I've also worn them in 70+ degree weather and my feet never got hot or sweaty. I don't know what kind of magic enchantment are on these, but they just work.

Loved socks. If not for the price, I would have gotten more

I was skeptical to purchase at first but so glad I did....this pair is super comfortable and warm....worn with quality pair hiking shoes and I can walk all day....I have ordered another pair....excellent quality

I wear these around the house in winter and out hiking in winter. As someone with Raynaud's, I really need a sock that will keep my feet toasty. So glad to have found it! Plus, being wool, they can go a very long time in between washes, which only adds to the durability. Highly recommend for anyone looking for winter essentials

How do I love Smartwool? Let me count the ways!1. My feet freeze from October to March, no matter the weather. Once they get cold, they don't thaw until spring. Smartwool keeps them toasty, no matter the weather.2. My feet used to sweat when I put on fleece socks. Them they'd get wet AND cold. But Smartwool keeps them dry.3. I used to wear out my old socks and have to buy them again each winter. Smartwool seem to last forever. I've had the first three pair I bought five years, and they still fit perfectly...not stretched out or baggy.4. Smartwool socks are not cheap, but I will continue to buy them because they are simply the best socks I've ever had.

Fit perfectly

I used these for years then tried Yuedge (made for tiny feet) and Danish Endurance (not much merino in them really) to save a few pounds, but it was a false economy. Once I got another pair of Smartwool, I could see there was no comparison and my feet are kept at a nice temperature year round, no smells or noticeable sweat and just so very very comfortable. I you are buying Merino socks, always check the actual content of merino wool, as many have only 50% or less and the rest is synthetic garbage. I bought the Smartwool heavy hiking socks and also the Smartwool Indestructawool versions for work in steel toe boots and they rock. Yes, very expensive, so I bought two pairs every payday this year and binned all my other socks at the end. Your feet are worth it. (Yuedge LMAO at those plasticky socks...you know they pay ppl for good reviews right!)

Really comfy socks. I actually wear them for playing cricket as I find they last longer, and retain their comfort for longer than cricket socks.

秋→冬→初春くらいまでの山に行かれる方にすすめたい。安定感、あったかさ、籠もらない感じ、すべて兼ね備えてます。私の中では登山用靴下はスマートウール一択です。ちょい高いけど、使ってみて損は無いかと。

Warm wool socks. They are fantastic for hiking
