These men’s Downtowner socks from SmartWool are a bit dressier than typical SmartWool hiking socks. I wear several pair to my business casual work and, made from merino wool and a bit of spandex, they’re a lot more comfortable and cushioned than normal dress socks.
The ankle-high women’s running socks have a good amount of cushion but are thin enough they don’t affect shoe fit. The wool wicks and keeps your feet dry in hot weather or warm in cooler weather. With a snug fit they also prevent blisters during long runs, SmartWool really got these right.
Even better, Backcountry.com offers free shipping on all orders of $50 or more and doesn’t charge sales tax on orders shipped outside of Utah.
