All the features you expect from our Light Hiker collection, but now in 1/4 sock height. Modest enough for a Victorian aristocrat, and equally familiar with dominating vast stretches of land, these ankle-covering socks offer a smooth cuff, legendary fit, and lightweight functionality that truly endures. Cushion extending up the Achilles adds targeted comfort and enhances the durability we guarantee for life. Men&';s 1/4 socks average 5.5 in. from heel to cuff - expect them to show about 3 in. above a low hiking shoe. A performance fit means no slipping, no bunching, no blisters for peak hiking comfort. Light Hiker socks have cushioning underfoot, atop the ankle, and up the Achilles to keep feet comfortable for miles and miles. Multi-zone mesh panels improve venting and flexibility, while reducing bulk and pressure points. Merino Wool is at home on the trail, naturally moving moisture to keep feet fresh and dry in all weather. Lightweight socks breathe naturally and deliver flexible, all-day comfort for summer hiking. The "still" in Still Made in Vermont, USA is personal. We knit all our socks at our VT-based Mills - we can&';t imagine it any other way. Unconditionally Guaranteed for Life - if these aren&&';;t the longest lasting socks you&&';;ve ever owned, return them for another pair.
