Customer Reviews Smartwool Hike Medium Crew

The Trekking sock is the best sock I ever had. I am a hotshot firefighter and 16 hours days for two weeks straight are the norm for us. When I upgraded to the Trekking socks from a different store brand I could really feel the difference. Pretty much like trading in your Geo Metro for an Escalade. Really, Really comfortable. I wear them together with the Smartwool liner socks and I dont travel without this combo anymore. Highly reccomended

I am in the military and needed new socks for work. I picked up a couple pairs of these just to try them out. I was amazed at the quality difference between these and my other socks. The smartwool socks are the most comfortable socks I have ever owned. I have had them now for a few months and I am impressed with how well they are made. They are a must have.

SmartWool makes the best hiking socks, period, and are the only socks I wear when hiking and backpacking. They provide superior cushioning and comfort, even when trekking in the backcountry for several days in the same pair. Just like Seinfeld's Elaine in her Himalayan Walking Boots, my feet are resilient after a long day on the trail because of my SmartWool hiking socks!

I've never cared or thought much about socks, until my wife got me a couple of pairs of these a while back. I have to say my feet have never been so happy. We live in Southern California, and I thought that wool socks would make my feet way too hot in a warm climate - but these keep my feet cooler than any polyester or cotton sock every has. They're incredibly comfortable, cool when they need to be cool, and warm when they need to warm. Until these, I'd always just bought socks like... well... like they were all the same. I've never been happier to be proven wrong, and love, love, love these socks.

After suffering through winter after winter in Buffalo with frozen, wet feet, I changed over to Smartwool socks a few years ago and could not be happier. They last forever, and consistently keep your feet dry, cushioned, and warm. I got rid of all my cotton socks and now only wear Smartwool. My feet are MUCH happier.

I have searched high and low for the perfect warm pair of socks. I found warm ones but, they were too thick. I found thinner ones but they were not warm enough. These are just right! I have had my first pair for over 2 years now and they are showing almost no sign of wear. I asked for 2 more paris for Christmas and plan to keep adding more to my collection. I will never buy another brand of socks again. I wore them horseback riding in the mountains last weekend and my toes were toasty warm while everyone else's froze!

I have been wearing my first pair of Hike Medium Crews for 10 years! I wear these all the time; running, working, kayaking, chores. Summer or Winter. Anything and everything I do is in a pair of Hike Medium Crews. They are always the right temperature. They look like they would be too warm for summer days, but they regulate the temperature perfectly. They are not too warm on hot days, in fact they keep my feet cool and dry. They allow my feet to breathe and I love them for it. Please note: I am a SmartWool employee, but I have only been an employee for three years and I have been wearing these socks for ten.

I've got 10 pairs of these socks. I've had some pairs for over five years. They've been on my feet, all around the world, in all kinds of climates. I've worn them in 130 degree deserts and 4 degree snow storms. I wear these socks with my Army boots and many different pairs of civilian hiking boots. Wash them inside out to keep the pile fluffy and they'll last you years.

I have worn these socks while being on my feet all day on concrete. They provided plenty of cushion and kept me from just wanting to get off my feet. I look forward to an upcoming day of hiking.

Hi , I wear wool socks every day, I am a service technician and wear work boots.years ago I gave up cotton and exclusively use wool. So far so good they also worked well on a hiking trip to Utah.

I love the classic medium hikers. I'm wearing some that are 10 years old. I just ordered 2 pair and they look the same, but the lining is different. I have several pairs that are not the classic hikers. My toe nails snag the lining threads in these no matter how carefully I trim my nails. I'm hoping the new lining is not like this.

Pricy but very nice.

Ordered thickest sock available. But sock no thick than previous Smart Wool socks hence the 4 star and not 5.

Perfect as far as fit and cushioning. I would prefer a high percentage of wool though. I get more chilled and damp with the nylon.

Comfy socks. It run big. I wear a 10-11, and purchased a large based on the sizing. But I’m swimming in them. I’ll buy again, but in a smaller size

Love the material and the cushioning . They just need to be a tad longer and more snug at the foot.

Very comfortable

If you are in the market for something with a higher wool %, Check out both the Trekking Heavy Crew sock (70% wool) as well as the PhD Outdoor Heavy Crew (73%). Also the Mountaineering Extra Heavy (74%). Granted these will be thicker than the Medium Crew above.

product is great; I am 74" tall and 240 lbs so cushioning is great; signed up to buy 5 pairs and get 6th free and still waiting for 6th pair

Is now my go-to winter sock (Minnesota), as well as onboard our sailboat in other than hot weather.

SmartWool socks don't seem to be as well made as before. Maybe the material is the same but the thread count seems lower than before.

Great shipping and great socks! Made the perfect gift!

Good job Smartwool.

Daily wear. Wear inside instead of slippers, but heels wear out in time. Is it possible to make the heels more durable?

Good every day sock
