Product Details
Our premium hiking socks are made from itch-free merino wool that naturally wicks moisture away and resists the growth of odor-causing bacteria. With generous cushioning and plenty of stretch, they'll keep your feet extra-comfortable on long hikes.
L. L. Bean used to say, "if your feet are happy, you're happy". Both you and your feet will be super-pleased on every hike with these ultra-comfortable merino wool hiking socks. They absorb shocks, wick moisture, hold their shape and won't smell funky at the end of a long day on the trails.
- Made with a blend of responsibly-sourced Merino wool that's naturally odor-resistant and breathable.
- In a soft, moisture-wicking blend of 77% Merino wool, 21% nylon and 2% Lycra Spandex.
- Machine wash and dry.
- Seamless toe prevents chafing.
- Improved design for more comfort, durability and a better fit.
- Lightweight cushioning for reliable comfort.
- Reinforcement at heels and toes for durability and comfort.

Very good wool/nylon/spandex blend 3-season socks
These have become my go-to three-season socks for fall/winter/spring.
Pros:
- I like the wool since it's warm, moisture-wicking, and does not hold foot odor.
- The fit works well for me. I wear a size Medium sock and my feet are size 8.5 - 9 in most shoes, especially sneakers.
- They are thick enough to provide cushion without too much bulk. I also have very high arches and I find the thickness is supportive, but not too big to wear inside my sneakers along with my custom orthotics.
- They have been sufficiently durable for me: I go through a batch of 7 per year, and then I hand them off to a family member once the socks start to wear but before holes appear, and I get a new batch.
- I have bought these for 2 years now, late each summer, and I am sufficiently satisfied that I plan to continue handing these off each summer before buying another 7 pair, as long as I continue to like style, fit, and materials.
Cons:
- I find these sufficiently soft, as I want some body in the wool. But I agree with some other customers that these can feel a bit on the scratchy side for a premium wool sock, though I find these soften up with machine washing and drying.
- I am satisfied with the platinum (gray, basically) color, so I have a week's worth of pairs in the same color, since I mostly wear jeans or dark pants. But I do find the other colors kind of "off" and less appealing, rather than more standard gray, blue, black, tan, green, etc.
- I do find they pill a bit, though it seems to level off, and not keep pilling until the socks disintegrate.
- Also, the loops on the inside can catch my fingernails and toenails when I put them on. This is tolerable, but I do notice it.
f you find wool is the best sock, this is a very good candidate.

Huge!
I ordered a women’s small. They were huge. Fortunately they fit my husband’s foot who is a men’s medium. He loves them but I don’t have my socks!

Socks Suck
Flimsy, lacking the appropriate amount of padding featured in the Bean socks I attempted to replace and hardly “mid-calf” I regret to inform you I returned these socks and instead intend to try the Thorlo product.

Nice socks
Great but run large- I bought a medium. I wear a women's shoe size 7.5 and they are big for me. Put in dryer and good for boots but probably should have sized down.

Lining too small
Inner lining made the socks too small. Recommend purchasing one size up

The warmest winter socks
These are my favorite winter socks! I bought three pairs and rotate them daily. They keep my feet so warm!

Every day: Spring Summer, Winter, and Fall
I have been wearing the Cresta Lightweight hiking socks, all day, every day, 365 days a year for years plus one more day on leap years. They are super comfy and last a long time. One design feature I really like is what I call the "racing stripe" up each side of the sock. It is a guide when putting the socks on to keeping the sock straight by aligning the stripe right over each ankle. High praise for attention to detail!
