🧦 Lorpen Coolmax Performance Liner Socks Review

I feel the quality when I work with it. I've used them on several climbs including Mount Whitney and they show no signs of wear. :) There's nothing more to say about that. I mean, I didn't have blisters before I had these and I still don't, so here's the thing.

I wear size 6.5 women's shoes with a wide foot, so size 7 socks. I ordered small ones and they are huge. They may work for some purposes, but absolutely not as a thick sock. They are going back. (PS If the smallest male size that fits them is 5 and the smallest female size is 6, then one of them must be wrong because they are not equivalent sizes.)

These are my hunting socks. I have several pairs. They are warm in winter and not too thick. I also use these socks when I go hunting early in the season in different hiking boots that are not insulated. They just work for everything once you have your system set up. I would recommend buying these socks and then trying on hiking boots. This way your boot will match the sock you intend to wear.

I don't know how long they will last but they fit great. They're not very stretchy, but so stiff and shaped they almost snap on your foot (they're soft as socks, yes, but they don't rely on elasticity, just good fabric shape). Ventilation and padding in the right places. Cool enough for the Caribbean. If they keep a decent time I can't fault them.

I bought them to avoid the problem of sweaty feet when wearing winter socks and boots. I had a problem with sweaty feet while wearing winter socks and I thought these insoles would solve that problem. These socks were a partial solution, sweating was drastically reduced, but didn't fix the problem. I wouldn't recommend it if you wear winter socks that need to be lined for more than a few hours.
