See What the World is Saying About Smartwool

"Smartwool’s super functional Merino Sport Ultra Light Hoodie is one of those jackets that you didn’t know you needed until you wore it. Made with merino mesh, recycled lightweight nylon with a non-PFC DWR finish, it is a comfortable option for higher output activities during the fall season."

"For missions that packed in lots of vert through changing conditions, the PhD Pro Ski Race was the first sock we pulled out of the drawer this winter. Elastic along the arch and extra-long cuffs locked everything in place during one tester’s 8-mile skimo race in the Washington Cascades, preventing hot spots. Smartwool also reduced the sock’s bulk by increasing the amount of mesh at the top of the foot, resulting in a thin sock that won’t give you volume problems inside your ski boots. Merino wool captures body heat and wicks sweat, and nylon content ensured this sock was tough enough to make it through a season of dawn patrols."

"I ski all winter in this crew top, and swear by its always-warm, never-hot insulating capabilities. There are no itchy shoulder seams—and the seams that are present are flatlock stitched, so you’ll never have to deal with hot spots or prickly hems."

"As someone who runs outside in all seasons (including some questionable weather conditions), I’ve tried a lot of sock brands, and Smartwool tops my list for winter running socks. I like that the crew socks cover more of my ankles, compared to low-cut or no-shows, so the gap between my tights and my socks stays covered and warm."

"A little warmer than most of the neck gaiters here, the Smartwool Neck Gaiter ($30) uses midweight merino 250 wool. The merino wicks away moisture and breathes enough to keep you cozy when the winds howl. But it’s still light enough to tolerate on a bluebird day."

"I found these socks offered light cushioning and great stretch (but not too much). They don’t slip or feel constrictive after a few hours in the saddle. The cycle crew socks have what the brand calls a performance-oriented fit, meaning seamless toes, “activity-specific” mesh zones for breathability, and Smartwool’s Indestructawool technology (the yarn and merino fibers are spun together in a way that makes the socks are more durable)."

"It was just enough for absorbing impact when we hiked longer than a few miles but not so much that we found ourselves overheating. The sock always felt dry when we took it off, too. We credit our comfort to the mostly Merino fabric blend and the mesh ventilation zone at the top of the foot. Moderate compression and a tailored, gender-specific fit (the women’s version is slimmer with a narrower heel) kept the sock securely in place and prevented any slipping."

"These cozy Merino wool socks are the perfect pair for colder, wetter days. They take everything we love about the natural material when used in hiking socks—it's thermoregulating, moisture-wicking, and sustainable—but slim down the design for a more active workout... the front-venting design keeps them from roasting your feet as you get further into your workout."

"Both men’s and women’s versions use Indestructawool technology that creates a thin fabric with impressive durability. There is minimal added cushioning in these socks which have a comfortably snug fit, with mesh ventilation zones for moisture management and breathability, plus an elasticized flex zone at the ankle joint to further stabilize the fit. These are the thinnest socks in our test group, but have held up very well to high mileage so far."

This gives the sock a little bit of everything you need: stretch, targeted ankle and sole cushion, durability, and, of course, the venting properties of wool."

"And no other wool brand beats Smartwool. The company really hit it out of the base layer park with their Merino 250 Base Layer One Piece—a onesie (with an all-important drop seat) made from performance wool that wicks away sweat, is never itchy on skin, and is warmer than (much) thicker base layers that I’ve given a go in the past."
