Description

Made by our Ethical Clothing Australia-accredited mates Humphrey Law here in Melbourne, the 27B Merino Wool Ankle Sock are a the perfect sock for those that wear trail shoes (and like a low cut sock) on the track rather than chunky boots. 

This ankle-height sock is referred to as a 'cycling sock' by Humphrey Law but they're ideal as a shoe hiking sock too. From the manufacturer: "The use of high quality merino wool outside combined with CoolMax®inside produces a sock that keeps the foot comfortable and less sweaty. The CoolMax® wicks perspiration away from the skin foot and nylon in the heel and toe provide additional reinforcement."

Why do we stock these Australian made merino ankle hiking socks? These have been our go-to low-cut 'trail shoe sock' or 'short sock' for a couple of years now and we swear by them. Now available to Ottie Merino customers.

 

Made from 54% Merino Wool, 25% CoolMax®, 19% Nylon,  2% Lycra.

Sizing (Australian shoe sizes): Small fits women's 3 to 8 and men's 4.5 to 7. Medium fits women's 8 to 11 and men's 7 to 10. Large fits men's 10 to 13.
