Personal Preference
The best part of choosing a sock comes in deciding what will work best for you!
Some considerations:
Length: From Ankle Socks to Over the Knee
How much coverage or protection do you want? If you have issues with swelling, you might like our "footlet" or ankle sock for ease in getting in and out of the sock. On the other hand, if you need some extra warmth for your whole leg, you might want to try knee or over the knee socks. And of course, there is the mid- length calf sock.
Thickness: From Light to Extreme Warm
This will depend on how cold it is, and how much give you want the sock to have. Lighter socks are great for keeping you cool and staying comfortable, while our extreme warm socks are as thick as most slippers and meant for tougher climes. The lighter socks also have more give than our heavier socks so take that into consideration too if you need something with more or less stretch.
Softness: Merino and Beyond
Choose a sock that has the right comfort level for you and a good balance between feel and structure. Most people find that our socks are non-irritating, but if you are worried about rubbing or have sensitive skin, you might want to try our softer Merino Wool Military Sock.
