6 Pairs Merino Wool Ankle Running Hiking Socks Compression Support Breathable Thick Cushion No Show Socks for Women Men

These socks are absolutely great! I was looking for short socks that would keep my feet warm in colder weather and these are perfect. Nice and comfortable, size was great, and keep my feet perfectly warm. I love colorful socks and these are nice colors. Will definitely buy again.

I really like these socks! Comfortable. Good quality. Fit is accurate as described. Still feel good after several washings. I find them every bit as enjoyable to wear as my $12/pair Bombas. I will order more of these.

I LOVE these socks. They're warm, comfortable, and fit well. They seem to wash well, but its recommended not to put them into the dryer and to not use fabric softener on them because of the material and the effectiveness of their ability to wick sweat. I do recommend using a shoe deodorizer in between uses, though...because by the end of the day they can get a bit stinky.

I bought the Anlisim Merino Wool Ankle Running Hiking socks in medium. I wear size 8 - 8.5 US women's size shoes. The socks are pretty good, but I do not consider them compression socks at all. They are also advertised as having a thick cushion. The cushion is not as thick as Kirkland (Costco) wool socks, but I am happy for that since I purchased these as a summer weight hiking sock. Out of the bag they were quite loose. After washing and drying on medium heat they tightened up enough that I am willing to keep them, but overall I am not especially impressed. If you want them for good compression, look elsewhere such as Sockwell - which are expensive but provide true compression and are worth the expense if you actually want true compression socks. I wore the Anlisim socks yesterday on a 12 mile, 2,500 foot elevation gain hike. Compared to Kirkland (Costco) and Darn Tough hiking socks, these feel quite fibrous which became a bit irritating on the bottom of the foot toward the end of a long hike. I am not certain how well the heel and toe areas these will hold up compared to Costco and Darn Tough socks. I was hoping these would be a nice substitute for Darn Toughs which I am trying to get away from b/c Darn Toughs are 100% synthetic (not to mention ridiculously expensive). Anlisim are thinner than Kirkland wool socks, making this brand better for summer hiking than Kirkland, but I will stick with Kirkland socks for cool and winter season activities because Kirkland are more comfortable (soft, non fibrous cushion underfoot), fit better, and hold up reasonably well in the toe and heel. For day-to-day wear Anlisim socks are fine, but I am not sure I will buy them again.

Love these socks for hiking or everyday use. Great quality. Very comfortable. The fit is great and covers my ankles just how I like. I'll always buy these socks from now on.

Exactly what was needed. Fit perfectly. Extremely comfortable. An awesome value. Seams are not noticeable. Keep my feet warm and dry in any condition.

Exactly what I have wanted. Warm and soft socks that are ankle height! Most warm socks are knee socks or too high and they cut into my legs. The colors are bright! I wear a size 9 and these fit me great. I am not sure how they will do after washed and dried. But I would say if you have a small foot.. like a size 5 or 6 , I would think these would be too big for you. But perfect for me.. sorry- not sorry. 😊

First main note is that these are NOT thick. Putting the word "Thick" in the product name makes this very misleading. For about the past 10-12 years I have only worn wool socks, so I know all about them and have tried multiple pairs so I feel like I have a good comparison in mind. These would essentially be men's dress socks in the world of "wool socks according to thickness". So compared to typical wool socks, these things are very thin. If you want actual THICK wool ankle socks, look up the Caudblor Men's Merino Wool Hiking Socks. Those are properly thick. Due to the thickness, just because these claim 70% wool vs 65% wool from a competing sock, the fact that these are half the thickness means that in reality you have a sock that has maybe only 50% the amount of wool as one that has 65% in the contents label, but has much more product that goes around your foot. These socks are fine for basic wear, especially could be good in the summer when you still want the benefits of wool, but don't need the thickness. They also have "compression" in the name, and while they have a tiny bit here or there, they definitely do not seem to compress anything on my actual foot compared to some high end socks like Nike elite or whatever. If you are looking for plush, truly thick and wam wool socks, I would recommend something from People Socks or Caudblor, as those are much closer to the thickness and warmth that you typically think of in a wool sock.
