DANISH ENDURANCE Hiking Socks, Merino Wool Socks for Men & Women, Thermal 3 & 5-Pack

Love these socks. I am 4’9” and use the Small size. I’ve had these for about 2 years from a previous order. Great for hiking and going to the gym. I have a dry skin type but when I sweat, it doesn’t feel uncomfortable at all. Snug as a bug. Great for winter and breathable for the summer! At least for me the odor isn’t bad after intensive hiked or the gym. Great quality for the price in my opinion!

Comfy, keeps sweat wicked away, no blisters, and no stank. When these wear out. If they wear out I will purchase more. Had them almost a year. Probably going to get more regardless.

When I received these socks, I really didn't think I would like them. The tops looked like they would be too high, and the shape of them didn't look like they would be comfortable. I decided to try wearing them anyway if for no other reason than to confirm that I didn't like them. As it turns out, the length of the socks is totally comfortable and doesn't make lines on my legs. They are cushioned on the soles of the socks which adds to the comfort and they are actually warmer than I thought they would be. The comfort alone makes them a great value for the money. I can't attest to the durability as I haven't had them for very long, but will update this review if my opinion changes. UPDATE 12/23/25: I have been wearing these socks for about a month and have washed them a couple of times. After washing, they scrunch up a bit and don't fold flat, but they are still very comfortable. I like them well enough that I bought another set in different colors. I hope this review was helpful for you.

To start with, I like these socks - I got the brown ones, and I like that they have the lines and color variations on them so it's easy to tell when you have them lined up on your feet. If you get them note that they suggest you wash them inside out, which I do, and they also have a guarantee that you won't get a hole in them for at least a year. I find them warm and comfortable. The whole moisture wicking thing does work, but once it gets to the outside it's still in your boot anyway! It is really nice when you take your boots off how fast they dry out though! I mentioned the strange bit. I have 9 pairs of these and I wear them all, but 6 pairs of them have what I will call "wider" top bands on them and they are very comfortable and easy to put on, and the other 3 pairs have slightly narrower top bands, maybe 7/16" less, even though I ordered the same product and size, and those ones kind of feel like they are a half-size smaller even though it might be my imagination. They just seem tighter going on and off. That isn't a deal-breaker for me, but I did the usual thing where I get the first 3-pack to see if I like them, buy another 3-pack that seemed like it was made by a different mfgr even though it is the same sock, and then the 3rd 3-pack was back to the original again. I will probably buy at least one more pack. If you like colors there are plenty to choose from, but I stuck with the brown so I can wear them for work. I DO recommend them and wear them for daily use. I went with the biggest size as I am a 12-wide.

I’ve been really impressed with these socks! I wore them in a cold environment while walking over 10,000 steps a day for two months, rotating between pairs, and they held up incredibly well. There’s been no noticeable wear, thinning, or issues at all. They kept my feet warm without overheating and were comfortable all day long—no bunching or slipping. You can tell they’re high quality and built to last. I’d definitely recommend these to anyone looking for durable, reliable hiking socks!

I liked the first 3-pack of these socks I bought (light grey, large), so bought more. Did not like the second set! Tried one last time, but third set still "not quite right", so sending them back. Too bad, but if the manufacturing of these socks were consistent I'd give them five stars. The first set were warm and comfortable, a nice intermediate-weight sock to wear for cool days and light hiking (I'd probably want something thicker for below-freezing weather and/or heavy-duty hiking, skiing, motorcycling, etc.). They remained comfortable all day and didn't leave a ring around my calf when I took them off. The second set--supposedly the same style, size, etc.--felt much tighter going over my foot and definitely left a calf-ring at the end of the day. The material also felt coarser. The third set--again same style & size--felt somewhat better than the second, but still a bit tighter and coarser than the first. As the photo shows, there are visible differences between the three sets of socks, indicating whatever factory (or factories?) make them, the materials and construction vary between runs. Note that they all have a red dash on the interior of the elastic cuff. The first dash is the largest and widest, the second the smallest and narrowest, and the third somewhere in between. Is this red dash a "Comfort Indicator"??? I don't know if that was the plan, but that is the reality I've experienced. Looking closely, there are slight differences in the weave (which may, along with differing fabric compositions, account for their different feels). And the three sets have varying cuff widths, with the third being the widest (they're also slightly longer than the other two), making them more comfortable than the second set, but still not equal to the first set, which are the softest and stretchiest. Bottom line: These socks have five-star potential (first set), but I can only give three stars due to their inconsistency.

I absolutely love these socks! They do great at keeping my feet dry, they are comfortable, and durable. They even have a 1 year no-hole guarantee! I will never buy another brand from now on

Great hiking socks. I have both the ankle and crew length lightweight socks that I love for summer hiking in Southern California, but wanted something a little thicker for upcoming cold weather/ mountain hiking in the Sierras. These are great socks. Slightly thicker with slightly more cushioning than the light weight socks, but definitely not bulky like a heavy winter sock. My feet still fit great in my standard sized boots. I tried them out an a 7 mile hike in low 60s through mid 70s temps. My feet felt great, no hot spots or sliding around. The extra cushioning over the light weight socks was nice to have. And best of all, my feet did not feel overheated or sweaty even at these temps. The socks are quality and a bargain at the price. So far I have three sets of different hiking socks from this company and they are all top notch socks.

Son geniales para invierno, mantienen mis pies calientes, me gusta caminar mucho y son muy cómodos para eso. Me encantarón.

3 issues: A. I got 2 pairs instead of 3. Amazon was kind enough to compensate me, but the packaging was really disappointing. The parcel was pretty much half open when I got it. B. The fabric is peeling more than I expected. Any kind of debree/small weeds or anything else gets lodged into the sock and takes a chunk with it when removed. C. They're not too stable and tend to slide around your foot more than other socks I've tried, even from the same brand. Pros: They're comfortable, breathable, and don't start to smell too quickly.

これらの靴下は、最初のハイキングでほとんど崩壊してしまいました。ほつれ始めただけでなく、靴の中に繊維や素材のカスが残り、インソールを掃除するのが大変でした。街中で履く分には問題ないかもしれませんが、宣伝されているような高品質のハイキングソックスではありません。最初のハイキングの半分も持ちませんでした。絶対に購入しないでください。

All ok

I purchased these DANISH ENDURANCE Merino Wool Hiking Socks (Thick Cushion). Comfort & Durability: The thick cushioning at the bottom makes them extremely comfortable to wear. Even after several washings, they haven't lost their softness or shape and remain just as comfortable as the first day. Odor Control: The anti-odor property of the merino wool is verified to be true. There is no noticeable odor even after hours of wear. I am extremely satisfied with this purchase and will definitely be ordering more. Highly recommended for outdoor activities or everyday wear!
