Best hiking socks in Europe

Submitted by PersonalDevKit t3_zgnnk9 in BuyItForLife

Inb4: Darn Tough. These seem really difficult to get outside of the USA, if someone knows a supplier in the EU that would be awesome. Otherwise the fees to import them into Spain would make them even more expensive, plus long shipping times.

Happy to spend money if they are going to last.

I love Swiss brand Rohner. I bought a pair of rohner ski socks in 2001 and they are still perfect

Seconded! Their Fibre Light SupeR are my dailies now. I only have one more pair from them which are knee-high for when I have to wear a suit.

Smartwool, Rohner, and Falke are my favorites as a BIFL enthusiast in Europe :)

Icebreaker wool socks!

Lifetime warranty on them as well

Agree, I submitted photos of 2 pairs of icebreaker socks with holes a few weeks ago and they emailed me a gift card worth enough to purchase 3 identical replacement pairs!

I came here to say this. I use mine since 6 years regularly and no sign of wear (!). Altough they can be little coarse when carrying high weights over long periods of time.

Iā€˜m partial to Falke socks, their Trecking socks are really durable and comfy.
