When you’re logging long miles in rugged terrain, your socks matter just as much as your boots. This collection features GOHUNT-tested hunting socks built for durability, moisture management, and all-day comfort from early-season hikes to late-season snowstorms.
Whether you're climbing steep ridgelines, crossing wet basins, or waiting out a cold snap, the right pair of socks helps prevent blisters, regulate temperature, and reduce fatigue. Choose from merino blends, compression fits, and high-cushion options tailored to serious mountain hunters.
With trusted brands like Darn Tough, Kenetrek, OS1st, SheepFeet Outdoors, King’s, Hanwag, and GOHUNT, these socks are built to perform where it counts most, on your feet.
Hunting socks are designed for rugged terrain, variable weather, and long hours on your feet. They offer better moisture control, insulation, cushioning, and durability compared to everyday socks. The right pair helps prevent blisters, cold feet, and fatigue, all of which can cut a hunt short.
Absolutely. While they cost more than cotton or basic synthetics, merino wool socks offer superior comfort, warmth, and odor resistance. They stay warm even when damp, making them perfect for cold or wet conditions.
That depends on your boots and the weather. Thicker socks add insulation for cold weather or uninsulated boots. Thinner socks are better in warm climates or when wearing snug-fitting boots. Make sure the sock complements your boot’s fit to avoid pressure points.
Choose heavyweight merino wool socks with full cushioning. These provide warmth and comfort without trapping sweat, key for keeping feet dry in freezing conditions. Pairing them with a liner sock can also boost insulation.
Liner socks can reduce friction and wick sweat, making them a smart addition for long hikes or multi-day hunts. They’re especially useful if you're prone to blisters or hunting in cold, damp conditions.
Start with well-fitting, moisture-wicking socks. Avoid cotton. Merino wool or performance synthetics are best. If needed, add a liner sock. Always test your sock-boot combo before a hunt to catch any hotspots early.
Replace them when you notice worn-out padding, sagging elastic, or thin spots. Typically after a few seasons of heavy use. High-quality socks will last longer with proper care.
Wash in cold water with mild detergent and avoid high heat when drying. Lay flat or hang dry when possible. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners, which can break down wool fibers and elastic.
