Our take on the Smartwool Smartwool Hike Targeted Cushion Crew Sock Winter Moss

The Smartwool Hike Targeted Cushion Crew is a merino wool hiking sock with cushioning placed where boots press hardest: under the heel and ball of the foot. The blend is 54% merino wool with nylon for durability and a little elastane for stretch, so it wicks moisture, resists odor and stays put on long days. It suits hikers and runners who want a crew-height sock that cushions without bulk. Against fully cushioned rivals it is lighter and more breathable; against thin liners it offers more protection underfoot. Owners of Smartwool's Hike line generally praise the fit and durability, though some find the targeted padding thinner than expected and the merino blend less plush than all-wool socks.

Questions and answers

Is this sock warm enough for cold-weather hiking?
It works for cool and mild conditions, but the 54% wool blend is less warm than all-merino socks. Pair it with a liner or choose a thicker sock for deep winter.
How does it compare with Smartwool's full-cushion Hike sock?
This one pads only the heel and ball of the foot, so it is lighter and less bulky. The full-cushion version adds padding across the whole foot for more protection.
What sizes are available?
It comes in US sock sizes S through XL, which covers most men's foot sizes. Check Smartwool's size chart against your shoe size.
How should I wash it?
Machine wash at 30 degrees Celsius and avoid high heat. Tumble drying on low or air drying helps the merino and elastane last longer.
Is it only for hiking?
No. The crew height and cushioning also suit trail running, walking and everyday boot wear.
What is in the box?
One pair of socks.
