What makes a good hiking sock?
Good hiking socks should fit like a second skin to avoid irritation and blisters during long walks, backpacking, or hiking. They need enough cushioning to absorb impact, and they should be made from breathable, moisture-wicking, quick-drying materials that keep feet at the right temperature in both warm and cold conditions.
Sockwell hiking socks are designed with all these qualities in mind.
Why choose compression hiking socks?
Compression socks offers many benefits in daily life – and just as many when hiking. The gentle pressure prevents swelling, improves circulation, and helps your body deliver oxygen-rich blood to your leg muscles while removing waste products more quickly. This keeps your legs feeling fresher for longer, reduces fatigue, and supports faster recovery.
Compression hiking socks can also help minimise the risk of cramps and provide a feeling of stability and support throughout your hike.
Premium natural materials
Our hiking socks are made with a carefully chosen blend of the finest merino wool and alpaca wool. These fibres absorb and release moisture naturally, keeping feet dry and helping to prevent blisters. They also regulate temperature – warm in winter, cool in summer – and are naturally antibacterial, helping to prevent odour.
For durability, elasticity, and a perfect fit, we add stretch nylon and a small amount of spandex. This ensures the socks stay in place, keep their shape after washing, and provide consistent compression.
Why Sockwell?
Sockwell hiking socks feature breathable flex zones for better ventilation and freedom of movement, a cushioned footbed for comfort and support, and a seamless toe for irritation-free wear. A specially knitted heel helps prevent slipping, and the high moisture absorption keeps feet dry – reducing the risk of blisters.
Choosing the right hiking socks
- Our women’s hiking socks are available in S/M (EU 35–38) and M/L (EU 39–43).
- Our men’s hiking socks come in M/L (EU 39–43) and L/XL (EU 44–47).
For summer, shorter socks may feel cooler, while in winter, knee-high compression socks provide extra warmth and also support the calf muscles. Always choose a height that matches your footwear – socks should come above the top of your hiking boots to prevent slipping.
If you’re between two sizes, we recommend choosing the smaller size for the best fit.
In short: Sockwell compression hiking socks combine premium natural materials, smart design, and the benefits of compression to keep your feet comfortable, supported, and ready for more miles – wherever the trail takes you.
