Men's Merino Wool Running Socks – ¼ Top Medium Cushion

Built for runners who face changing trail conditions, our men's merino wool running socks are designed to keep up whether you're tackling a long-distance trail run or a quick morning jog. When conditions shift from cold to warm fast, this sock adapts with you.

Cloudline's natural merino wool regulates temperature and wicks moisture, keeping your feet comfortable from the first mile to the last. The medium cushion delivers generous impact absorption to keep tired feet feeling fresh on long runs, while the ¼ top height blocks trail debris so you can stay focused on the run ahead. A precision fit means no rubbing, no slipping, and no blisters — mile after mile.

Perfect for trail running, road running, and all-day training — these men's merino wool running socks are engineered for runners who refuse to compromise.

SOCK FEATURES

▪︎ Don’t underestimate the comfort of dry feet when you’re running in cold weather. Our moisture-wicking merino wool means you’ll be running in dry, blister-free bliss.


▪︎ Bunchy, slipping, itchy socks can turn a beautiful day on the trail into a major annoyance. No need to worry - our socks are made with ultra soft, itch-free merino wool.


▪︎ Long, cold, and potentially wet trail runs are a recipe for stinky socks. But our naturally odor-resistant merino wool keeps ‘em smelling fresh no matter how big your adventure.


▪︎ Don’t hesitate to put some miles on these socks. A reinforced heel and toe make them comfortable and durable.


▪︎ Trail tested and loved in the PNW.

▪︎ ¼ Height: Sits just above the ankle for the perfect trail-running fit.


▪︎ Easy Care: Always wash inside out to prevent pilling. Machine wash and dry warm, do not bleach. Can also be hand washed and line dried on the trail.

Always the best

Found cloudline winning an ultralight giveaway from garage grown gear couple years back. Many pairs later, recommendations to friends, family and fellow hikers. Hands down nothing compares. Soft wool, absorbent, blister resistant after 50 plus miles. Depending shoes. Leaves darn tough and others in the dust. 90% of my drawer is cloudline. I still have darn tough I use on light days.

Great Socks

These are all I wear to work or play. Wether I’m 5 feet down in a hole on a water main break or running trail Cloudline comes through. American made too so awesome.

The Best Trail Running Socks!

I'm a new customer and love these socks. I recently completed a10.5 hour 23 mile trail run/hike on Crow pass trail (Alaska). The entire time my feet felt great! 12 miles of that run my feet were completely wet soaked from rain and multiple creek crossings. Not one blister or sore spot to be found. I've gone from new customer to lifelong customer!

The best hiking and general socks full-stop!

I have been buying and using Cloudline hiking and running socks for the best part of ten years now. I love them. They are incredibly comfortable and durable. In that time, I have never had to replace a pair because they have worn thin, or, worse, holes have appeared. They look great and, given how long they last, are outstanding value. The short and long hiking socks double as everyday socks in winter. Likewise, the running socks for everyday use the rest of the year.

Love these socks

I love these socks. I've tried other wool sock brands. Used to buy from Smartwool, but they're too tight and it started to bother me. Plus they're too thin. Cloudline socks are incredible. They're amazingly comfortable, not too tight, and they last. I've now bought 10 pairs of their socks and I couldn't like them more.

Best Socks!

Best merino socks in the game! So comfortable and they last forever! I have some that I've had from 2019 with over 2k trail miles and thousands of more just out and about. 100s of washes and no issues! Great for thru hiking, day hiking, training or just going to work! Just bought 2 more pairs of these awesome socks! Thank you Cloudline for making such comfortable and reliable socks!:u1F973::hugging:

I have a bunion and the designated R and L socks are too tight on my foot. These are perfectly comfortable for working out or day to day use. Buying more.

I only wear Cloudline socks!

My latest purchase of the 1/4 top medium cushion running sock was just the latest in the addition to my Cloudline sock collection. I wear the Cloudline work socks all week and run and hike ONLY in Cloudline socks. After hundreds of miles on the pavement and the trail, I am still using the same socks with no signs of wear in any of the pairs that I own. I am a brand loyalist when it is rightfully due and Cloudline has definitely earned my trust!

Medium cushion is too much

Unfortunately I feel that medium cushion is too much for any shoe that I own as it makes it rather uncomfortable to wear. But besides that, the sick keeps you warm.

Best and most durable merino socks!

Best socks I've ever had. I bought these back in 2019 along with a variety of other brands such as darn tough, farm to feet, smart wool etc.. and while most of them did ok. This one pair of cloudline socks is the only pair that went through 4 thousand plus miles ( on Trail and off) and are still going strong.. no holes or signs of ware.. it's truly remarkable! I've never had a pair of socks that I put through so much use and didn't hang to replace. Not only that, their prices are extremely competitive and they offer a lifetime warranty. To top it off the staff are very nice and easy to work with. If you're looking for a tough, durable, long lasting sock for thru hiking, camping or any outdoor activity, definitely give these a shot! For comparison; I bought 2 pairs of darn tough socks at the same time (five years ago ) they ask went through the same usage. But both the darn toughs had to be replaced via warrant. Thank you cloudine for making such great socks!

Comfy (if bulky)

Very comfortable and seem to breath well for being relatively thick. The medium cushion is bulkier than I would have thought it would be, so that is a consideration. I would go for a lighter sock next time, but I am still very happy with these.
