Knee-High Socks

There are several ways to take care of your feet during various outdoor activities. Alongside quality shoes, boots or trainers, you can reach for classic or functional thermal socks, but knee-high socks should also not be missing from your backpack. The reason is simple. Knee-high socks, like thermal socks, can eliminate pressure points and blisters, but with the right choice you need not be any worse off in terms of thermal regulation, adequate sweat and moisture wicking, or mechanical durability. And that may not even be the full picture.

Knee-High Socks Have More to Offer

Unlike regular socks, knee-high socks work equally well with lower and higher footwear models and, in addition, some models offer added value in the form of compression effects. This is especially true of knee-high socks made from a combination of fibres that includes flexible elastane. Such knee-high socks not only stay on the foot better, but also help improve venous blood return, prevent the formation of blood clots, reduce the feeling of heavy, aching legs and contribute to faster recovery after demanding hiking trips.

Knee-high socks without elastane, combining wool, cotton, CoolMax, nylon, polyamide etc., will of course not disappoint either. These knee-high socks are made for everyday wear, but can equally well be used for climbing, hiking and many other outdoor activities. Available in various sizes from renowned brands Bobr, MFH and Mil-Tec, the range includes summer and transitional knee-high socks as well as knee-high socks suitable for winter.
