Hunting Socks

Built from premium New Zealand Nuyarn® Merino Wool, this lightweight sock takes everyday comfort to a new level. Whether it’s in the field, on the jobsite, or training for an upcoming hunt, its hybrid construction delivers rapid wicking to keep your feet feeling dry and comfortable. Engineered with Elasticated Support System™, seamless construction, and added cushioning in high friction zones, you get the needed comfort for all-day wear.

Your feet can produce over one pint of perspiration per day, and we've developed a sock that does something about it. The Strongwool Hybrid Crew Sock leverages the inherent absorption properties of wool and the wicking properties of synthetic polypropylene. Since wool fibers are naturally fantastic at absorbing moisture and insulating while wet, we've positioned 100% wool woven padding in the areas your feet sweat the most'ëthe toe box, heel, top of foot, and ankle. Since these sections are woven with 100% wool and not blended materials, absorption is not hindered. However, once wool is wet, it's not the best at letting it go. To draw the moisture away from the wool, the midfoot and upper are built from synthetic polypropylene. Through capillary action, it wicks the moisture away from the wool sections, and evaporates it through the upper. This unique hybrid design keeps your feet feeling comfortable and dry. StrongWool's design also limits foot slippage within the boot, keeping blisters from forming and foot movement to a minimum. The result is a durable, hardwearing sock with enhanced dry times. They're ideal for sweaty feet or hunting in wet conditions. Testers noted the socks gained comfort after washing and wearing 1-2 times. If you're sensitive to a traditional wool feel, consider our Nuyarn Merino wool options.

Developed in New Zealand, Nuyarn technology has revolutionized the Merino wool market. Taking the twist out of the yarn has produced a fabric with higher stretch and recovery, better moisture management, and greater warmth. It is stronger than the average Merino wool on the market, yet boasts the same natural odor resistance and comfort. OutdoorGear socks are a product of our partnership with The Merino Company and the family-owned, New Zealand Sock Company. With TMC's patented Nuyarn technology, and The NZ Sock Company's expertise, OutdoorGear has created the most technically advanced socks in the hunting industry. OutdoorGear ULTRA Merino socks are designed for high-stress outdoor activity where additional technical support of the feet is required. The style and shape compliments a wide range of footwear while adding protection to your feet. Highly breathable and moisture wicking, this sock molds to your feet, ensuring shear friction is reduced and skin integrity is kept optimal. Each sock is strategically knitted so that there is only Merino wool next to the skin, allowing all it's natural moisture wicking and odor reducing properties to stay in effect. Additional yarn thickness in high wear areas helps protect the feet with cushioning and adds longevity to the life of the sock. Elastic fibers are knitted through the middle of the sock to maintain a strong grip around the arch and ankle, allowing for minimal friction and blister-free wear. Strong Nylon fibers are then blended through the outer face of the sock for added durability.

The lighter weight ULTRA Merino Midweight Mountain sock is the most versatile sock in our collection. Paladin™ protection pads atop the foot relieve pressure from boot laces promoting blood flow for reduced fatigue and improved foot warmth in colder conditions. Elasticated arches and ankles grip the foot for blister-free wear, and a seamless construction provides ridge-free comfort at fabric transitions. Achilles cushioning and strategic padding reduce felt shock from the ground. Designed with right and left specific construction for an anatomical fit.
