Lorpen Unisex-Adult T2 Merino Liner Sock

Item description says 75% merino, 15% nylon, and 10% ea lycra. The package says 45% merino, 45% nylon, and 10%stretch nylon lycra. I bought them wanting the higher amount of merino wool. I wore them this morning under my Darn Tough socks which also contain merino wool with my Rocky winter boots to see how it all fit. Hours later I pulled my socks off and these Lorpen socks were more dry than the Darn Tough which means they worked, they pulled the moisture away pretty good. I'm sure these will be good for me this winter as a boot sock liner with all the wilderness stuff I do. I may get more of these before my European trip depending how much $$ I have. The description being off is why I give a 4 out of 5.

I love these socks. I have 5 pairs. They are my go to summer hiking sock and my winter liner sock. I've worn them with mountaineering boots, hiking boots and regular hiking shoes. I've never had a blister with them. The Coolmax fabric does a great job managing sweat too mitigate blisters. Don't take my word for it though. They are also sold by American Alpine Institute and they don't sell anything they don't trust.

Wore under a pair of wool hiking socks on a 14 hour, 160-mile bike ride--as well as 3-day camping trip--in 30-55F degree weather. They did a fantastic job of regulating temperature and sweat. When my feet would normally be cold, they were comfortably warm, and when my feet definitely should have been hot and swampy, they felt slightly warm, mostly dry, and weren't at all itchy. Also, almost no odor after three days without taking them off. Excellent value for the price!

I purchased 8 pairs of these for wearing with my leather booties in Houston, TX winter months. The liners are all I need. They keep my feet both cool and warm without taking up a lot of room. I wash them in a laundry bag with delicate soap and hang to dry. They stay up and don't cause my feet to swell. I have nothing but high praises for these.

I use these with Darn Tough OTC Extra Cushion Sock and my feet still fit in all my footwear. Very pleased. They work great. No complaints if I try to think of any. I also own a pair of Lorpen Coolmax liners and you see I only wish they labeled or styled them in such a way I COULD TELL A DIFFERENCE. Not a big deal though as I'm sure they're interchangable/what affect the outcome of anything but sure does makes me question what Lorpen was thinking.

Product has changed and no longer matches description. The earlier product which I ordered and loved was as described 75% merino. A fine sock. This is 45% merino and feels like a coarse synthetic fiber sock. I miss the old socks. Wah.

I purchased these for a liner under my wader socks, and being merino wool and a light weight might make a good match. This is the best warmth and comfort sock for this application, I am so pleased with these socks and recommend them highly.

After wearing these sock liners ONCE, one of them developed a hole. There is no excuse for quality this low for a pair of socks that cost over $11. I washed them only one time (using then gentle/delicate setting on my washing machine) and did not put them in my dryer. I have 5-year-old socks purchased for $8 for a 10-pack from Walmart that have been washed, dried, and worn hundreds of times - and they are still going strong. I'm returning them immediately for a full refund from Amazon.
