Review on ๐Ÿงฆ thorlos Men's Ultra-Light Hiking Crew Socks with Thin Cushioning by Lakeem Pickel

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Ideal for trail runners

I've been using these socks for trail hiking and running for several years. This is a good mix of thin but with a small cushion. Probably too thin for boots and very bumpy trails, but great for a trail runner or light hiking shoes (like the Merrell Moab). I personally prefer a blend of synthetics over many thin merino socks because they don't shrink over time. This fabric is also resistant to felting over time and the wear and tear that merino wool experiences. They respond better to washing and drying than merino wool, which can get a bit stiff on a long hike. That's my choice until they change it.

Pros
  • Lightweight, lined socks for day hikes and casual wear on the road
Cons
  • No instructions
