Let’s face it, heavyweight hiking socks are really not very comfortable for hitting the trail in warm or hot weather – what you need is something like these lovely, soft, lightweight jobs from Bridgedale.
The Woolfusion Trail Ultralight socks provide great ventilation and wicking thanks to a combination of high quality yarns and high performance microfibers whilst targeted cushioning around the toes and heels and mesh ventilation panels over the top of the foot add to comfort levels.
They also have a nice loose fit around the ankles to round it all off, and because of their light weight they’ll dry quickly when washed which is always useful if you’re backpacking or camping.
