Hiking on the trail can be an incredible adventure, but your feet can suffer if they're abused by your footwear. When you use the Smartwool Unisex Hike Classic Edition Extra Cushion Crew Socks, your feet stay comfortable and dry. These socks are constructed with a blend of recycled nylon, Merino wool, imported yarn, elastane and nylon. The elasticized arch brace supports your feet, and the flat-knit toe seam provides comfort during long hikes. Unlike other crew socks, Smartwool socks provide additional padding to protect your feet during your outdoor excursion.
