Customer Reviews Smartwool Classic Mountaineer Maximum Cushion Crew

I purchased both the full and extra cushion hike crew socks, which allows me to adjust to current weather conditions. Both socks are comfortably padded and warm. I do prefer the previous product packaging/labeling (hiking, trekking, mountaineering), as this is clearer and simpler. Socks can wear out a bit rapidly, but nevertheless Smartwool socks are my favorite and I recommend them.

These extra cushion socks are wonderful in my husbands work boots!

Good heavy sock. These should be warm.

Good heavy sock

The extra cushioning is great and the usual good quality wool is there. The only negative is that it's classified as a crew sock but it is a bit longer than the crew sock model with less cushioning. Not horrible but without question not your normal crew sock. It wasn't a shipping error either the sock tags said crew.

Warm and lots of cushion. Worn for a winter hike and it felt good. Need more miles to make a better review. They are nice.

great hiking socks in winter

Not sure how durable they will be, but they do deliver on the promise of extra cushion.

Comfortable, warm, and though it's still early, they seem to wear well in my work boots.

My husband loves Smartwool socks! The only downside is the price.

#sweepstakes I found these very comfortabe, but roomier than expected. I could have gone one size down.

Very thick and soft. XL fits a little big for a 12.

Scanning on Vail Mountain on my 6 year. The socks are warm and they ware well.

I was hesitant to buy from Smartwool after I found out the wool percentage has gone down about 7% since I bought my last pair about four years ago. I know their merino wool is what makes the socks so unique and high quality. The comfort and warmth is unmatched! I decided to give them another chance anyway after buying a pair by a different brand (which turned out to be horrible). Lo, and behold, I was surprised there wasn't a big difference in comfort, warmth, or quality! I suppose time will tell how long they last as I've only had them a week or so. The best thing about Smartwool is they fit so well without being loose. I've tried other brands and they are so tight they're uncomfortable. Also, Smartwool seems to be more durable over time while other brands shrink right away. Also, they are the softest brand out there. Other brands I've tried are so harsh and scratchy they are not the same as Smartwool! I would give 5 stars if they hadn't changed the wool content which I preferred what it was previously. #sweepstakes

They're the best

I wear in winter mostly whenever outside.

I like wearing hiking socks from October to May and I want them comfortable and warm. I've been wearing SmartWool for years. Not changing now when I know what to expect

Wonderfully warm and great cushioning. I wish there were more colorful options.

Ordered large and wear a 11.5 street shoe. The fit is great. Quality is great. Very comfortable to wear.

I work outside in Wyoming every single day 365 days a year, winters get cold. This sock is very warm and soft, the only issue I have is that the whole foot is very loose.

I am wearing them right now. Very soft cushioned sole. A little bit bulkier than I had imagined, but great for in my boots.

Very confortable and warm but after first use the socks started to leave fibers all around

Comfortable but ugly. They are not versatile for different outfits. They could become relevant like sorel did with creating style. Please do that smartwool!!!

Too thick to wear with shoes. My husband can only wear them for sleep or around the house with slippers.

I'm grateful for the price, color is cool, and cushion seems adequate. They seem to be slipping down just a little bit, and I think that's because they might be too large for my foot. With Smart socks, the size matters. Great quality of sock.
