When you want a thin liner under your hiking sock

A crew liner sock with no cushioning and a 60% merino wool blend.

Keep in mind: A liner adds a layer under your hiking sock; check toe room with both on.

Closest in Smartwool’s range: the Hike Classic Edition Crew. They differ in sock type, cushion and blend; the cuff and size chart are the same.

Check the size and the shoe together

Start with the unisex chart for this exact model. Use the size lookup or the whole Smartwool 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

Machine wash on gentle cycle in warm or cool water. Tumble dry low. Do not dry clean. Do not iron. Do not bleach.

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: “no cushion” here, “liner” there; check each brand’s size chart.

Injinji Liner Crew Wool 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.
