U.S. Merino Wool

Merino wool is soft, itch-free, naturally odor- and bacteria-resistant, cool in the summer and warm in winter. We source our 100% U.S. grown merino wool exclusively from sheep raised by American farmers on American farms.

Outer Nylon Plaiting

A more traditional sock construction technique that produces classic linear patterns and heather textures, outer nylon plaiting knits the stretch yarns in the outer layers of the sock and the body yarn on the inside. Reinforcing yarns woven into the stretch shell increase durability, while wool fibers sit closer to the skin for maximum insulation.

Bottom-of-Foot Cushion Zone

Found throughout our Sport collection and in some Hike models, bottom-of-foot cushioning adds shock-absorbing loop knit across the entire sole, from the toes to the heel. Cushioning here reduces impact from running and hiking, and the fitted instep won’t interfere with low-volume shoes.

Half-Density Cushioning

On the inside of the sock, a terry knit loop every other stitch creates half-density cushioning to add softness and wicking performance without dramatically affecting sock thickness. Its lower density makes it ideal for casual socks.

Seamless Toe Closure

Advanced knitting techniques create a totally flat connection in the toe box, reducing bulk and eliminating blister-generating friction.

Comfort Compression

Circumferential compression from the top of the sock through the arch creates a precise, comfortable fit that helps support the foot throughout the day.

Durability Assured

Reinforced construction and low-stress seam placement reduce wear and tear, increasing the life of the sock.
