You've researched and bought the best hiking boots for you, you've mapped out the trail and have everything you need but wait! Don't forget what goes between your feet and your boots, a good pair of hiking socks. You don't want to wear just any old pair of gym socks; hiking socks are made especially to help cushion your feet while trekking through the wilderness.image

Which Material Is Best for Your Hiking Socks?

Wool is the most popular hiking sock material for most hikers. It regulates temperature well to keep your feet from getting sweaty and provides cushioning.

Polyester is a synthetic material that insulates, wicks moisture, and dries quickly. It is sometimes blended with wool or nylon to create a good combination of warmth, comfort, durability, and fast-drying.

Should You Wear Two Socks When Hiking?

You should wear two pairs of socks or a sock liner, and a thicker pair of socks helps wick away moisture from the foot, and the friction is kept between the inner and outer socks.
