Avery S. ★★★★★

My feet usually destroy socks by the end of a work week, but these no-shows have held their shape and stayed put after several washes. The merino wool is noticeably softer than the cotton blends I used to buy, and I haven't dealt with any friction at the ankle line.

Harper ★★★★★

Wore these on a 10-mile hike in trail runners and my heels came out totally unscathed—the merino wool kept things dry even when I hit a muddy patch. They’re thin enough to slip under sneakers without bunching, which is exactly what I needed.

Christopher E. ★★★★★

Bought these for a long hiking trip and my feet came out completely unscathed – no blisters at all where the sock meets the shoe, which is exactly what they promise. The merino wool feels great against the skin, and the no-show style stays put without slipping down into my sneakers.
