Smartwool says: 

Perform with the power and comfort of responsibly sourced, ZQ-certified Merino wool in our Hike Light Cushion Crew socks. Formerly known as PhD® Outdoor, we’ve updated our best hike socks to include more sustainable materials with the addition of recycled nylon, improved durability, updated mesh zones, and an even more perfect fit. But, don’t worry. Our fan-favourite sock technologies aren’t going anywhere—offering you the comfort and performance you expect from Smartwool. The crew height also adds extra coverage on the trails and light cushioning on the entire bottom of foot helps keep you comfortable when the ground isn’t—helping you to hike on (and on.. and on..)

Our Verdict

The Smartwool Hike Light Cushion Crew socks are an excellent choice for hiking and outdoor adventures. Made with a blend of responsibly sourced merino wool, recycled nylon, and a touch of elastane, they provide outstanding breathability, moisture management, and stretch.

A generous merino wool cushion underfoot provides impact protection and premium next-to-skin comfort. The virtually seamless toe box eliminates hot spots and blisters. Additional venting mesh zones allow airflow to prevent overheating. These socks have become my go-to socks for hiking. Soft and incredibly comfortable to wear, they provide not only protection but moisture wicking as well. 

The key to their performance is Smartwool’s Indestructawool technology, which reinforces high-wear areas for enhanced durability on the trail. The 4 Degree Elite fit system locks the socks without bunching or slipping.
