Inner: 40% merino wool, 40% acrylic, 17% polyamide, 3% elastane.

Between the inner and outer knits sits a Porelle® waterproof, breathable membrane, which DexShell prints under “Interlining” as PFOA free polyurethane.
What DexShell says about it
“Full terry-loop merino-wool blend inner.”
“Heavyweight warmth and cushioning.”
“Mid-calf coverage for winter conditions.”
Cushion and weight labels are this brand’s own terms. They are not a shared thickness or temperature rating.

Check the size and the shoe together
Start with the unisex chart for this exact model. Use the size lookup or the whole DexShell size chart to find the published range, then check the heel position, toe room and cuff in your footwear.
The maker does not give a heel-to-cuff measurement. Try the socks with your boots to see whether the cuff sits above the collar. See how sock heights differ.
Try the complete layered construction, not only one layer. Extra fabric can change toe room and pressure inside the shoe. The footwear-fit checklist explains what to check.
Care for the exact pair
Wash at or below 30°C / 86°F. Use a mild detergent. Drip or line dry naturally. Do not bleach. Do not wring. Do not iron. Do not dry clean. Keep away from direct heat.
Use the care lookup for this model’s wash and dry directions. A general wool routine should not override instructions for a membrane, a two-layer construction or a specific treatment.
Another sock to compare
Both constructions contain animal fiber (wool or alpaca). Padding: “maximum cushion” here, “full terry loop cushioning” there; check each brand’s size chart.
Showers Pass Cross Point Waterproof Mountain uses its own size chart. Compare the two socks to see where their height, material, cushioning and care differ. Matching specs don’t mean they will feel the same in your shoes.
