Are these good for hiking?

For short, light walks yes, but the sole is thin. For long or rocky hikes, pick a cushioned wool hiking sock.

Do they keep feet dry?

The polyester blend wicks and dries faster than cotton, so feet feel drier during normal activity. They are not waterproof.

They come in S, M, L and XL. Check the size chart against your shoe size, since the fit runs close to standard men's sizing.

Only partly. Cotton is about a quarter of the blend, with polyester making up most of the rest, plus viscose and a little elastane.

Yes. Machine wash warm and tumble dry low. High heat can shrink the elastane and loosen the cuff.

Four pairs of black crew socks in the size you choose.
