Smartwool Hike Targeted Cushion Ankle Sock Black, M

What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I reach for these when I want merino comfort without the bulk of a crew sock. The light cushioning hits a sweet spot for trail days and everyday wear, and the merino blend keeps odor in check even after back-to-back outings."Good socks are the kind of gear that quietly makes every trip a little bit better. The Smartwool Hike Targeted Cushion Ankle Sock delivers that foundation in a low-profile ankle cut - enough coverage to stay comfortable on the trail without the extra warmth of a taller sock on those shoulder-season and summer days when a crew feels like too much. The blend of 56% merino wool with recycled nylon brings the natural temperature regulation and odor resistance that merino is known for, keeping feet fresh across long days and back-to-back wears. Light cushioning targets high-impact zones to absorb trail shock without adding bulk inside the boot, and body-mapped mesh ventilation zones promote airflow where feet tend to run warmest. Built with 31% recycled nylon, these socks carry Smartwool's commitment to responsible materials without giving anything up in durability or comfort.
