Thorlo's Moderate Cushion Low-Cut Hiking Socks are ankle-height hiking socks built around targeted padding at the heel, ball and arch rather than all-over thickness. The knit is 79% THOR·WICK COOL polyester with nylon and elastic, plus ventilation panels and a flat comfort toe seam. They suit hikers and trail runners who want blister protection and arch support without a tall, hot sock. Against thicker crew hiking socks they run cooler and lighter, but they offer less coverage and less warmth in cold or rough terrain. Owners rate them well, calling them light, comfortable and secure on the foot.

These are low-cut hiking socks with moderate cushioning, made to protect against foot pain and blisters. The padding is clinically backed and helps alleviate pain caused by plantar fasciitis. The instep and arch are cushioned for a more comfortable hike.
The socks use moisture-wicking material and ventilation panels for moisture control and breathability. A comfort toe seam helps prevent irritation during extended wear. THORLON® yarn provides softness, durability and moisture-wicking.
The socks are made in the USA of domestic and imported yarns.
