Point6 Socks

Though not the most prominent brand among outdoor footwear, Point6’s vast collection of Merino wool socks deserves serious consideration when you’re shopping for your next adventure.

The New Zealand-sourced Merino used in these socks offers the perfect combination of warmth, breathability, comfort, durability and moisture- and odor-fighting abilities. The socks are designed in the company’s Rocky Mountain headquarters, a vast playground that imbues the creators with the experience needed to craft great technical footwear.

And every purchase is guaranteed for life, meaning buyers can return a product for any reason or recycle it at the end of its life, ensuring the wool doesn’t end up in the trash heap. Need to make a return? That’s not a problem either, as Point6 offers hassle free returns. Socks returned to the company’s recycling program end up being reused and remade into blankets distributed to homeless populations.

Point6 has a sock for every activity, from compression socks great for long hours on your feet or to keep blood flowing on long flights to socks for hiking, snow sports and more. Each option has a range of fun colors and more austere options if you’re looking to keep things simple.
