The TEKO eco EXPEDITION 5.0 MERINO WOOL Extra Heavy Full Cushion Socks are an over-the-calf / below-the-knee height designed for wearing with tall and heavier trekking boots. These are the thickest, warmest and most comfy socks we produce. These socks have some serious cred having been used by Alan Hinkes, the British Mountaineer in his successful attempt to climb all 14 of the world's 8000-metre peaks. They have also been to both Poles as well as every 4000-metre peak in Europe.
With extra heavy cushioning throughout you benefit from the luxurious comfort of having all that merino wool around your feet and its incredible wicking properties essential for extreme cold. Perfect for arctic polar conditions and high-altitude expeditions. You get 100% natural merino wool next to your skin and the nylon is plaited to the outside of the sock for added durability and performance. The nylon reinforcement is doubled up in the heel and toe areas. No nylon touches your skin, only pure merino wool.
