Conquer rocky trails and forest paths in Smartwool’s Hike Light Crew Socks—your essential partner for sustainable adventure. Formerly PhD® Outdoor, these premium Merino wool hiking socks blend ZQ-certified responsibly sourced wool with 31% recycled nylon for eco-conscious performance you can feel good about. Experience cloud-like comfort mile after mile thanks to light cushioning underfoot, perfectly paired with your favorite hiking boots or trail shoes.
Why do serious hikers choose these durable crew socks? Our Indestructawool™ technology targets high-wear zones for exceptional longevity on rugged terrain, while strategic mesh ventilation zones actively manage moisture and boost breathability during steep climbs. The 4 Degree™ Elite Fit System ensures a locked-in feel without slippage, even at tricky ankle joints, and the Virtually Seamless™ toe eliminates painful blisters—critical for long-distance hikes.
Standing 8″ tall, the crew height provides reliable trail coverage against debris and brush. Whether you’re tackling day hikes or multi-day backpacking trips through varying conditions, these sustainable hiking socks deliver temperature regulation and enduring comfort where it counts. Machine-washable and built in the USA with imported yarns (56% Merino Wool, 11% Nylon), they’re engineered to help you hike farther, more comfortably, and more responsibly.
