I was buying bargain hiking/hunting socks that didn't last long and soon began to fall down and bunch up. You know the story. I have been very happy these socks and i'm staying with this brand.

Comments about Thorlo CoolMax Light Hiker Socks:
I have seven pairs since 2000 and they've held up marvelously: an excellent value. The added support (in addit to your shoes own arch support) is an added plus. I've used them exclusely running. They were my only choice for my only marathon. They're the ideal running sock. They're also stylish - I get a lot of comments. Thanks Thorlo!

Comments about Thorlo CoolMax Light Hiker Socks:
These are great. There is no wool, Yea!!! They are the only ones I have found that are still thick, but not too thick, they hug your foot. They come in womens and mens sizes. I go between my snowmobile boots and shoes for work, during the day, and they are perfect. They are warm but not too warm and not too heavy. Can't wait to try them in my hikers 4 wheeling this Spring. I think they are all weather socks.

Comments about Thorlo CoolMax Light Hiker Socks:
I tested these socks on my recent trip to Yosemite for the half-dome hike. The hike itself was pretty dry so wet shoes/socks wasn't a problem. Here are the benefits for those who are interested:
-Thick, durable socks to keep you warm
-Fits pretty well
-blister free feet
-Did what it had advertised.
However, after returning from the hike and changing into something more comfortable, I found that my feet were a little moist. The wicking can be better improved but again it was hardly noticeable and it didn't hindrance any performance throughout the whole entire hiking trip. In fact, I didn't notice that my feet were moist until I removed the socks. Explore away adventurers!

Comments about Thorlo CoolMax Light Hiker Socks:
I like the padding in Thorlo socks, but was having trouble getting a good fit -- not too big, not too small. These fit like a glove yet don't feel cramped -- very comfortable.

Comments about Thorlo CoolMax Light Hiker Socks:
These socks are wonderful. I wore them while hiking in Belize, and they wicked moisture well and were very breatheable. I wore them on a cold day here in Ohio and they were warm and comfy. Sometimes I wear them around the house. They're really supportive, too. I have zero complaints. I bought five or six pairs because I love them so much.

Comments about Thorlo CoolMax Light Hiker Socks:
I have 5 pairs of these. The first pair is 15 years old. I wear them weekly. NO HOLES. These last forever! The elastic at the top is starting to give a little but the rest is still going strong. I would like to see a warmer winter version, as my feet get a little cold in the winter. Maybe a wool blend?

Comments about Thorlo CoolMax Light Hiker Socks:
Great socks. Bought two pairs for my 14-day hiking trip, with 5-7 miles of hiking each day. Washed one pair each night and wore the other pair the next day. Slow drying, so overnight drying not likely to work. These are very comfortable socks, however, and well worth it. I have replaced my smartWool socks with these because these fit better.

Comments about Thorlo CoolMax Light Hiker Socks:
Own 6 pairs of these purchased 4+ years ago. Wear them just about every weekend and all the time while backpacking or on vacation. They wear extremely well. My oldest pair (about 5 years old) is starting to get a little slack, but they aren't saggy. Bottoms still look new - no holes or abrasions, even after wearing them in boots for weeks on end. My feet overheat easily and these are great for keeping me as cool as possible. I recommend them highly.
