Almost all of my socks are Smartwool because of comfort and warmth. When I put these socks on, I love how they hug my feet. Best socks ever!

Super great, I lose a lot of socks so that's the only negative!! Losing a pair of these! They are super soft and comfortable.

Accompanies my other good purchases. I will prefer additional colors and designs in green and red. Like argyle pattern.

I miss the PhD smart wool socks. those were the perfect thickness for workshops AND they gave me such comfort as I stood most of the day as a doctor. These are what I got to replace them.

Smartwool socks make my feet feel wonderful, like healthy. I don't have anything bad to say about them every Christmas I buy at least 100.00 dollars worth of them. I give them as gifts. I personally own probably 25 pairs. All different thickness and all different cushioned. Thay are great

97 yr old man receives compliments from doctors and nurses at all his visits. Stylish, and great for walking a mile every day.

Just WAY too tight throughout the body. And seemingly pretty thin material for a "hike" classification.

I have been kicking around doing holiday stuff in these and they have been amazing! Keeping my tootsies warm during the polar vortex and comfy during Christmas shopping. I am all in on these socks.!

I'm a rough carpenter that builds homes in Michigan. I'm out in the weather all year around. I had cold feet for about 10 yrs as I tried different sock brands with non of them meeting my standards. I came across Smartwool socks one day. They were alittle more then what I was used to to spending but I took the chance. IM SO GLAD I DID ! It changed me for life. They were by far the warmest socks I EVER had. Above the extreme warmth they were very soft. They fit like a glove and wick all the moisture away to keep you warm and dry. I now have been wearing smartwool socks for the past 15 yrs. The summer I buy anklets, fall I wear above ankle and winter I buy full cushion hikers. Some of my pairs I have had for 4-5 yrs. They are by far the best socks ever. I ONLY buy smartwool socks. With the performance of their socks I chose to try smartwool base layers. They did not disappoint. It's the only base layer I wear. If you have not tried smartwool products I would suggest you try. I tell everyone about their products and have given many people new pairs to try. They now agree and that's all they buy now. If you want warmth, comfortable and durable products by SMARTWOOL. THEY DONT DISAPPOINT!!!!!

These are the best socks I've ever worn. I bought my first 3 pairs at an RCI store in 2015 or 2016 and still no holes, all the other merino wool socks I purchased only lasted a few years. I recently bought 3 more because they are the best boot socks I've ever worn and I wear boots everyday at work. I also added these socks to my family gift exchange for 2025. Want to do laundry a little less to get to wear my favorite boot socks at work. All of mine are of the light grey style so far. I have probably about 30 to 40 pairs of merino wool socks and this pair is my favorite followed by the Darn Tough hiker socks. No other socks are worth mentioning.

Great on a winter hike on the trails. They keep my feet warm even when they get wet in the snow. I love the Chestnut color.

I recently purchase 5 pairs of hiking socks. A couple pair of the Lolo Trail Crew, and 3 pair of the regular Hike Crew. To be honest, I'm not sure I can really tell that much difference between them, but one thing I do know for sure: these Smartwool socks are the best I have ever owned! The first 5 pair that I bought, starting over 5 years ago, are all still in rotation. A few pair are starting to get thin, but still very usable. If you are considering purchasing but held back by the price, stop hesitating and buy some now! They are worth it and your feet will thank you!

Super cushy where it needs to be and stays put
By Mike W.
I am loving these socks! I wear slip on Blunstone boots for work and often my socks move around when I put my boots on but I didn't have to adjust these at all. The design seemed weird at first due to the thinner material mid-foot but it was so thick and cushioned everywhere else, it felt amazing. My foot is between a 10 and 11 usually and these felt like the perfect fit. I had been wearing these as work socks, as I am on my feet all day. They work super well for that and feel great (as g...
