We made some heavy additions to our Light Hiker—and we’re not talking weight. Reinforced with high-density knitting in the leg and cuff, this Boot height sock protects feet and guards against debris. Mesh panels in the foot add breathability, while increased durability in the heel makes even your toughest hikes feel like an amble.

Height: Boot

Weight: Lightweight

Pairs With: Hiking shoes, trail runners, fresh mountain air

Style Number: 5028

Men's boot socks average 28 cm from heel to cuff - expect them to show about 13 cm above a standard hiking boot.
A performance fit means no slipping, no bunching, no blisters for peak hiking comfort.
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.

Unrivaled Durability

We make one thing, and we make it better than anyone else – ask any thru hiker and you will likely hear the same. In order to unconditionally guarantee a hiking sock for life, it must be durable. It must maintain its comfort, and it has to fit for miles upon miles on-trail. The socks that do return through warranty inform how we can improve. And we do. Our guarantee is a promise to you, but it’s a standard for us. We have yet to produce our best sock, but we get better with every step.

Amazing investment

"Bought for my son who has never worn wool socks… he absolutely loves them and is now a complete convert. First time he has had warm feet in the cooler spring days"

— A R. (5/5)

Great socks. Toastie warm without

"Great socks. Toastie warm without being too bulky"

— Duncan B. (5/5)

Hiker boot lightweight.

"Excellent socks. Strong, durable but most importantly hugely comfortable. Great cushioning underfoot with a lighter upper to aid with heat/sweat displacement in hotter conditions. My only very slight criticism is I found them a little tight around the sock top & I wouldn’t say I have particularly big legs & ankles."
