With Indestructawool™ technology and extended durability zones, these socks are built to last. The comfort welt provides a 'stay put' fit so they won't slip down. They measure 8' in height. Made in the USA from imported yarn, the composition is 56% Merino Wool, 11% Nylon, 31% Recycled Nylon, and 2% Elastane, combining softness, strength, and elasticity.

These socks are perfect for hiking. Just put them on like you would any regular socks. Make sure they fit well around your ankles and calves. When it comes to washing, use a gentle cycle with cold water to keep the Merino wool soft. Avoid using bleach as it can damage the fibers. After washing, let them air dry instead of putting them in the dryer, as high heat can shrink the socks. If you notice any loose threads, trim them carefully to maintain the sock's durability. With proper care, these socks will serve you well on many hikes.
