UOG TOP PICK - Burly and built to handle the trail for extended periods, these award-winning socks provide stability, support and comfort mile after mile on the trail. We love to see innovation, in clothing, and these are one of our top picks

Swiftwick says: 

Designed to provide your feet with advanced stability and support so you can get the most out of your next trail adventure.

Swiftwick FLITE XT® TRAIL features AnkleLock™ Technology that supports your ankles during quick movements on uneven & varying terrains, while GripDry™ Fiber in the heel and forefoot keeps your feet from sliding in your shoes. But, we didn't stop there - we blended natural Merino wool with a full Olefin fiber footbed to move moisture away from your feet, keeping them dry and blister-free even during the longest of treks.

Our Verdict

These have to be some of, if not the best, socks I have ever used while hiking. They are soft and comfortable and instantly feel supported when you put them on. They have won awards from “Runners World Magazine”, “Men's Health Magazine”, and “Outside Magazine”, so I was keen to get my hand on them.

The thing that sets them apart from other hiking and running socks is the GripDry™ Fiber they utilise in the heel and forefoot of the sock, a grippy material that feels as it if has silicone or rubber in the weave, which helps your feet grip your shoe. This is brilliant if you are on uneven terrain, resulting in a more precise, confident step. 

The Merino wool and Olefin fibre blended sock breathes incredibly well and helps move moisture away from the skin, resulting in fewer blisters. They have performed well in every environment and weather condition I have tried them out in. They dry very quickly; I tend to wear trail runners when hiking, so damp socks are par for the course, so I was pleased with how fast they dried.
