When your child needs a padded hiking sock

A kids' sock with a 3/4 crew cuff and padding underfoot, in 30% wool, 29% polyester (Drytex) and 20% polypropylene.

Keep in mind: Rohner sells kids' sizes from EU 23 to 38; choose by the shoe size your child wears now.

Closest in Rohner’s range: the Hiking Kids. They differ in cushion and blend; the cuff and size chart are the same.

Check the size and the shoe together

Start with the kids’ chart for this exact model. Use the size lookup or the whole Rohner 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 selected size with the shoes and insoles you plan to use. Added cushioning should not crowd the toes or distort the heel position. The footwear-fit checklist explains what to check.

Care for the exact pair

Wash gently at no more than 30°C (86°F).

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: “medium-high padding” here, “cushion” there; check each brand’s size chart.

Darn Tough Kids Sal Micro Crew Lightweight 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.
