Smartwool Men's Hike Classic Edition Light Cushion Ankle Socks - Light Gray

 

The Smartwool Hike Classic Edition Light Cushion Ankle Socks are traditional Merino wool hiking socks that have been trusted by hikers around the world for more than 25 years. Made with a high percentage of premium Merino wool, they help keep your feet dry, comfortable and at an ideal temperature throughout your hike. Light cushioning across the entire foot provides extra comfort without making the sock feel bulky.

 

The Ankle height sits comfortably just above the ankle and is designed for use with low-cut hiking shoes and lightweight outdoor footwear. Compared to the Performance Hike range, the Classic Edition features a more traditional knit with a softer, fuller feel, making it an excellent choice for relaxed walks, day hikes, travel and everyday outdoor use.
