Performance you can feel on the trail

These socks bring together several performance features that matter on the approach, ascent, and descent. Indestructawool technology reinforces durability zones to stand up to rocky terrain and long days in boots. A mid-crew height shields against debris while keeping ankles comfortable. The 4 Degree Elite Fit System creates a snug, locked-in feel so your socks stay in place as you move, with an arch brace that helps reduce shifting and rubbing.

• Durability that lasts with reinforced zones for rugged trails
• Enhanced performance fit for a secure, move-with-you feel
• Targeted cushioning in the heel and forefoot for comfort where it counts
• Breathable mesh zones to promote airflow and moisture management
• Eco-friendly design crafted in the USA

In real-world use, the combination of cushioning and fit supports steady footing on rocky sections and downhill sections alike. The cushioning provides a soft landing for each step, while the secure fit helps maintain alignment inside your boot, reducing fatigue over long miles. The moisture-wicking properties of Merino wool help feet feel drier as temperatures shift throughout the day.
