When your boots have room for full cushioning

A crew hiking sock with Wigwam’s full cushion label, a heavyweight knit and a 61% merino wool blend.

Keep in mind: Full cushioning adds fabric around the foot. If your boots already feel snug, a lighter sock may fit better.

Closest in Wigwam’s range: the Merino Comfort Hiker Midweight Crew. They differ in weight and blend; the cuff, cushion 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 Wigwam 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

Turn socks inside out and wash in warm water, no hotter than 120°F (50°C). Skip bleach and fabric softener, and keep them away from denim and Velcro. Tumble dry on the lowest heat or lay flat to dry.

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: “full cushion” on both, as each brand defines it; check each brand’s size chart.

Smartwool Hike Classic Edition Crew Full Cushion, SW013000 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.
