    FAQs

    Socks are an essential part of hiking gear. They not only complement the functionality of footwear, but also significantly affect comfort, performance and feel. Careful material selection and technical features are key when choosing hiking socks to meet changing weather conditions and the needs of the wearer.

    Hiking socks are designed to suit different uses. For example, UphillSport socks are divided into categories based on thermal value, shaft length and thickness to make it easier to choose the right type of sock. Thin technical socks are suitable for warmer conditions and active movement, while thick socks provide warmth and comfort in cooler weather. It is also important to consider the footwear you are wearing; the heavier and looser the shoe, the thicker the sock is recommended. For longer hikes, you can use the technique of double socks, which is popular with hikers. The first is a well-fitting thin liner sock, topped with a second thicker sock depending on the conditions.

    Durability and lifespan are important factors when choosing hiking socks. High-quality hiking socks are designed to withstand heavy wear and tear and retain their shape and properties for a long time. It is also important to maintain your socks properly so that they remain usable for a long time.
