Yes, merino wool is a natural thermoregulator, meaning it helps keep feet cool in the heat and warm in the cold, though the midweight padding makes them best for mild-to-cool weather.
No, these are made from ultra-soft fine merino wool, which is much thinner than traditional sheep's wool and is generally non-irritating to the skin.
Nylon is added to increase the durability and stretch recovery of the sock, ensuring it doesn't lose its shape or tear easily at high-stress points like the heel and toe.

These socks are designed to work seamlessly with standard hiking boots and trail shoes. To ensure optimal performance and longevity, follow these care instructions:
