Choosing the right material for hiking socks is crucial, as it contributes significantly to their power and comfort during your adventures.
Merinowool is a first-class choice for hiking socks. It offers excellent moisture-regulating properties, outstanding heat-insulating properties and is also breathable. Even in hot temperatures, merino keeps your feet cool and dry, while warming them in the cold. It is also odour-resistant and soft, which minimises chafing and blisters.
Synthetic materials: durability and lightness
Synthetic materials such as nylon and polyester are known for their durability and lightness. They dry quickly and offer excellent durability, which is an advantage straight away on intensive hikes. They also ensure a good fit and elasticity.
Cotton is very breathable, but less suitable for hiking socks as it absorbs moisture and dries slowly. This can lead to uncomfortably wet feet, which can be problematic on long tours.
Wool blends, for example merino in combination with synthetic materials, combine the best of both worlds. They offer comfort, thermal regulation and improved durability.
Caring for hiking socks is crucial to ensure their longevity and power. It is recommended to wash them at low temperatures with a mild detergent that is gentle on colours. Washing them upside down and separately or with similar colours prevents discolouration and protects the materials. After washing, the socks should be air-dried to avoid possible damage caused by strong heat. Proper care increases the service life of your socks and ensures their optimum comfort on your next adventures.
Bladders can spoil the fun of hiking. Make sure you choose well-fitting socks that are seamless and don't rub in your shoes. Moisture is also a factor. Our trekking socks, especially those made from merino wool, offer cushioning and moisture control to prevent blisters. Merino hiking socks wick moisture away from your skin and keep your feet dry - a key factor in preventing blisters. The wool can absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture without feeling wet, which ensures a comfortable foot climate.
