Merino wool is a great choice for hiking socks because, first and foremost, it has a nice soft and luxurious feel but for hiking socks merino wool has lots of other benefits too - it naturally wicks sweat away from your skin and can absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture without feeling damp. This helps keep your feet dry and, with the wools’ soft and smooth texture, reduces the risk of blisters. Merino wool helps keep your feet warm if hiking in cold weather and cool in warm weather due to its breathable and insulating properties. We all know how smelly hiking socks can become but merino wool has natural antimicrobial properties that prevent the growth of odor-causing bacteria, keeping your socks fresher for longer. Merino wool is naturally elastic, so it maintains its shape over time while still being durable enough for frequent use. Many hiking socks blend merino with synthetic fibers for extra longevity.
