SOCK FEATURES


▪︎ Moisture-wicking merino wool adds to the versatility of these socks — because extra support shouldn’t mean extra sweat.


▪︎ A good sock does its job without being noticed. Enjoy itch-free comfort without any hot-spots, bunching, or slouching.


▪︎ Ultra runs, thru-hikes, and travel days don’t need any added hassle. Our naturally odor-resistant merino wool keeps your feet feeling (and smelling) fresh — all day long.


▪︎ When you want extra support, these socks will deliver. The reinforced heel and toe provide lasting durability when you need it most.


▪︎ After a big day on the trail, don’t let sore muscles get you down. The moderate compression in these socks aids with swelling and aching legs.


▪︎ Trail-tested across the trail of the Pacific Northwest.

Quality, economic compression sock

"I wear my cloudlines most of the days I’m on my feet all day, and they make a world of difference in how I feel at the end of those days. Will be purchasing again."

Jake S. (5/5)

Necessary Gear

"I purchased my first pair of Cloudline socks 6 years ago and those socks are still going strong. So when I needed a pair of wool compression socks I decided to get them from CL, over other brands, which I also have."

Jorge S. (5/5)

Great - Would Buy Again

"I got a large…wear a 10. 5 men’s shoe. Fits great. It hits right above the calf, and fits the foot well. The fabric isn’t itchy, or have uncomfortable seams. The compression isn’t too tight, but tight enough that it feels like it’s helping. The retro style is actually why I wanted to go with this company in the first place, and it didn’t disappoint. I would like for them to make more retro styles."

Benjamin M. (5/5)

Not worth it

"very poor quality for price not worth it, doesn't feel like good merino like I ht ehikihn socks. reached out to support and will update"

Rohit S. (2/5)

Great Compression Socks

"I wear these for about 14 hours at work and they are the most comfortable compression socks I’ve tried yet."

BRIAN M. (5/5)

Well made and comfortable

"The socks were purchased to add to an earlier purchase of Ultralight compression socks of a different design. They are well made, very comfortable and are my every day, all day socks."

Michael P. (5/5)

It works!

"I was a skeptic about the ability of merino wool to suppress smell. I also wear support hose every day as I have done for almost half a century. Wore my first pair daily for a week to test it out and a little punky at the endnof each hot summer day and scent gone by AM. Fit is very comfortable, no scratchy feel and these are now my go to socks."

Daniel S. (5/5)

These are the most comfortable

"These are the most comfortable compression socks I’ve ever worn. So comfortable I will use them for my hunting/hiking socks."

Jim S. (5/5)

Not Comfortable

"Not sure why you would want a compression sock putting pressure on a muscle in your leg versus coming all the way up like a medical compression sock. Cloudline does make compression socks that come all the way up like medical compression socks do. I ASSUMED all compression socks were the same length. When you look at the socks side by side you can see that this Retro style is shorter. Cloudline should show a side-by-side comparison. Also noticed the pics they use are inconsistent. One appears to show the sock near the bend in your knee and another further down the leg. I do not like the Retro style and could not wear them all day. The other style I could wear all day but they are not as comfortable as Darn Tough socks. Unfortunately, Darn tough does not make compression socks"
