FITS Wool Hiking and Running Socks

July 5, 2017 by Scott Witner Leave a Comment

FITS Wool Hiking Socks

I recently did a quick review of the FITS Tactical Crew Socks, which have been performing quite well. Having such a good first impression with the Tactical Crew Socks, I decided to give the quarter height hiking socks. I generally prefer a quarter height hiking sock whether I’m wearing shoes or hiking boots.

The FITS hiking socks have performed equally as well to date as the crew socks. I’ve worn them for several days through various activities to include running, working out and general everyday wear. Like the crew socks they stay on my feet when I kick my shoes off and they don’t shift during physical activities.

If these socks continue to impress like they have been, I just might find myself ordering a few more pair to have on hand.

Specifications (courtesy of fittssock.com)

All the great features of our Light Hiker but in a lower profile for those that like their socks close to the top of their hikers. The FITS® quarter length sock is also one of the great all around socks money can buy.

  • Our patented Full Contact Fit® hugs the contours of your foot and stays put so there is no loose socks to rub you the wrong way.
  • Lightweight.
  • Quarter height is just above your boot line.
  • Extra cushioning in the heel, toe and the arch.
  • Merino Wool 70%
  • Nylon 23%
  • Polyester 4%
  • Lycra 3%
  • MADE IN THE USA
