Forest Light Weight Crew Hiking Socks

$16.95

Full coverage. Light on your feet.

Crew height protection. Lightweight feel. The best of both worlds for hikers who want  coverage without the bulk.

Our hiking crew lightweight socks gives you full shin-to-toe coverage - shielding against boots, brush, and debris - while keeping things breathable and light. Cushion on the underfoot, toe, and heel areas provides comfort exactly where you need it, and nowhere you don't.

Full coverage doesn't have to mean full weight.


About This Sock

Light cushion where it matters — underfoot, toe, and heel. Crew height for full boot coverage. No extra bulk, no trapped heat.

These are the socks for warm-weather hiking, shoulder-season trails, and any day where heavy socks feel like overkill. Merino wool breathes, wicks moisture, and keeps odor in check even when temperatures climb. Mesh ventilation panels let air move through. They stay dry, you stay comfortable.

Reinforced heel and toe hold up to season after season of use. Seamless toe closure means no rubbing inside your boots. Arch support keeps everything in place on uneven ground.

Full coverage without the weight.

Frequently asked questions

Are these socks really 100% merino?
The yarn is 100% merino wool — that's the part that touches your feet. But no sock is made of 100% wool alone; every sock needs nylon and spandex to keep its shape and last. Our socks are up to 84% merino wool. The rest is what makes them last.
How do I wash them? Can I use the dryer?
Wash cold, inside out, and air dry. That's the whole rule. Heat is what damages wool — a hot dryer shrinks the fibers and makes them stiff over time. If you only have a dryer, use the lowest heat setting and take them out while they're still slightly damp. An occasional low-heat dry won't ruin them; doing it every week will.
Will these work in warm weather?
It depends on the weight you choose. Our heavy cushion socks are built for cold: winter hikes, shoulder-season backpacking, days at elevation. Our light and medium weights handle warmer days better. Matching the sock to the temperature is the fastest way to keep your feet comfortable all year.
What happens if they wear out?
We back every pair with our Hike Further Guarantee. If your socks don't hold up, we'll replace them. No fine print, no receipt hunting. We make socks we'd want to walk a long way in — and we stand behind them the same way.
What if I'm between sizes?
If you're between sizes, size up. Wool stretches slightly with wear, and a sock that's a touch roomy is more comfortable than one that's tight. The crew height should sit comfortably below the calf — no bunching, no tight band.

Light Cushion

Light cushion on underfoot, toe, and heel areas. Adds comfort where impact hits hardest without adding bulk - a balanced choice for warm-weather hiking and running where breathability is key.

Crew

Extends to mid-calf, offering full coverage inside hiking boots. Protects against boot friction, debris, and brush while providing additional warmth and support on longer, more demanding days.

100% Merino Wool Yarn

100% merino wool against your skin. Not synthetic. Not a blend. Dry when it's hot. Warm when it's not. Just wool, doing what wool does best.
