Flying-saucer-worthy style comes easy in the Close Encounters hiking sock. So do great trail hikes, thanks to the smooth 1x1 ribbed cuff, performance fit, and climate-regulating merino wool for comfortable and dry trekking. We can't guarantee you'll have a supernature experience on the trail, but if you do, feel free to tell bigfoot we're still working on those custom XXXXXL sizes.

FEATURES

  • A performance fit means no slipping, no bunching, no blisters for peak hiking comfort.
  • Reinforced footbed and Achilles cushion improves the comfort of our socks and helps them last longer.
  • Merino Wool is at home on the trail, naturally moving moisture to keep feet fresh and dry in all weather.
  • These all-season weight, midweight socks thermoregulate to wrap feet in steady comfort when temperatures change.
  • The “still” in Still Made in Vermont, USA is personal. Darn Tough knits all their socks at their VT-based Mills.
  • Unconditionally Guaranteed for Life - if these aren’t the longest lasting socks you’ve ever owned, return them for another pair.
