Men's Ultralight Merino Wool Hiking Socks - Crew 3-Pack

Our lightest men's merino wool hiking socks are back in a 3-pack for triple the ultralight comfort. These crew hiking socks are big on breathability and built for warm-weather hiking, or for when you want to move fast and light on the trail.

Cloudline's durable merino wool is naturally moisture-wicking and odor-resistant, keeping your feet cool and fresh mile after mile without weighing you down. The ultralight construction delivers a barely-there feel underfoot, while the crew height provides ideal coverage for off-trail excursions and brushy terrain. A precision fit means no rubbing, no slipping, and no blisters, from the first step to the finish line.

Stock up with our 3-pack of men's ultralight hiking socks and always have a fresh pair ready for your next adventure. Perfect for warm weather hiking, thru-hiking, backpacking, and fast-and-light trail days.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size should I get?

Men's sizes follow your US shoe size: Small Youth 3 - 5.5, Medium fits 6 to 8.5, Large fits 9 to 11.5, and X-Large fits 12 to 14.5. If you're between sizes, size down, since the merino and spandex blend stretches for a snug fit. If you have wide or high-volume feet, size up. See the full size guide.

When should I choose ultralight?

Ultralight has no cushion, just a thin knit, so it's our coolest and most breathable hiking sock. It's best for summer hikes, hot climates and snug shoes, and the merino still wicks sweat and resists odor. For more padding underfoot, try our Light Cushion. For boots and cold weather, Medium Cushion is warmer. Our cushion guide compares all three.

Will they shrink in the wash?

Every Cloudline sock is washed and preshrunk before it's packaged, so the fit stays consistent. High dryer heat can still shrink wool over many washes, so tumble dry on low to warm heat or line dry.

How should I wash them?

Turn them inside out, machine wash cold or warm with like colors, and tumble dry on low to warm heat. Skip bleach and fabric softener, because softener can reduce wicking. On the trail they hand wash and air dry quickly. Full tips are in our washing guide.

What does the lifetime guarantee cover?

If your socks ever get a hole, or your dog eats your favorite pair, send us the guarantee form with your order number, or the name and email you ordered with. Our in-house team will replace them.

How do these compare to Darn Tough and Smartwool?

All three make excellent merino hiking socks. This one is 59% merino, 34% nylon and 7% spandex. It's knit in Fort Payne, Alabama and backed by a lifetime guarantee, at $53.99 for this 3-pack ($18 a pair), versus $22.99 for a single pair. See our side-by-side comparison of durability, guarantees and value.

Well Made - Tight in the Calf

I want to love these socks, but they are too tight in the calf for me - I think of my calves as being in the normal range. Disappointed b/c I wanted thin black socks. :/
Customer service offered to exchange them - even though I had opened two pack pair of the three pack and worn one pair! So I'm looking forward to receiving the replacements.

Exactly What I Wanted!

I was looking for a lightweight sock to wear with my Doc Martens in hot weather. These are perfect. No chafing and wicked moisture perfectly.

Simply the best.

Buying these socks from USA for the third time despite the import tax and the postage. Great snug fit. Very durable and comfortable. Best socks I have ever had.

Really nice socks

I believe they will last a very long time. Much better than cotton for sweat!

Only socks I wear

They never wear out! Have been using for several years and no weak spots in the heal as I always had with other socks.

Bad stitching design on toes

The stitching has hexagonal angles on the toes and heel cup. I don't know the reason for this but it created extra material on my toes which made me feel the seam all day. It wasn't awful but it was uncomfortable. The ultra thin were almost too thin and my feet slid in the sock. I'm going back to just the lightweight tactical sock. Kudos to cloudline for exchanging my socks out after I washed them. I bought cloudline over 5 years ago and have been buying them since.

Great socks

I have been a Darn Tough fan for a while now, but have had 1 pair of CloudLine in the rotation that have lasted for several years of heavy use. Compared to the Darn Tough I decided my feet breather better and are more comfortable so I finally bought some more CloudLine socks.

Nice enough

Socks seem fairly comfortable, but the socks are much too narrow in the toes

Not good for larger calfs

I’ve been very happy with all of my Cloudline socks so far. These did not meet my expectations however. I was looking for a lighter weight sock and these fit the bill. My calf’s are a little bigger and these sock tops are just too tight. After washing they probably won’t fit. Fortunately my son got a three pack of new socks!

Love these socks!

Ultralight - but not TOO ultralight. Just the right thickness to be comfortable but not too thin. Love 'em!

Great socks but issue with fit on Ultralight pair

I love Cloudline socks; I have bought many pairs for myself and as gifts. This is the first time I have ordered the ultralight crew socks and they fit very tight, almost like compression socks. I always order XL and the light cushion fit me perfectly even after numerous washing/drying. I struggle to get the ultralight socks on. I thought perhaps they sent the wrong size but the wrapper says XL. I'm wondering if there was packing error.

I purchased 3 3-packs (9

I purchased 3 3-packs (9 pairs total) several weeks back but wanted to get consistent real-world use before writing my review.

I wear the ultralight hiking socks everyday, replacing my typical cotton crew socks. It is midsummer in the Milwaukee area, and I wear a pair of Salomon GTX Hikers 8 inch as my everyday boot. I'm typically on my feet at work my entire shift, and I usually workout daily including rucking for about 1 hour twice weekly. I'm 230lbs, and often brutal on my footwear. These socks have kept my feet comfortably cool and dry when the cotton equivalent would be sweaty and uncomfortable. On my rucks i carry an additional 32 lbs in my pack and these socks have held up wonderfully so far. Of course proper foot and toenail grooming adds to longevity. They are very comfortable against bare skin, no scratchy/ itchy feeling from the materials at any time.

I am very pleased with my purchase and I highly recommend this company's products, you will not be disappointed. I hope my review helps your decision.

Ultralight hiking sock

This sock is perfect for me. Not thin and slippy, but instead very breathable, moisture wicking, doesn’t keep a smell, durable, and good looking. I would recommend this to anyone to use as part of their casual lifestyle and for more sporty activities

Impressed!

I normally run in a 1/4 crew sock, but tried out the ultralight hiking sock. I was afraid that the socks would start to slip, but they have not to date, and as a bonus I get some extra protection on those days I lose the trail and have to bushwhack through the weeds!

Great value

These are my favorite sock for my morning walk. 3 miles and my feet feel better than with cotton or poly. Even in summer, the thin design is perfect.
