WHAT WE THINK
At Valley and Peak, we know that the right pair of socks can make all the difference when exploring the outdoors, and the Horizon Premium Merino Hike Hiking Socks have exceeded our expectations during our testing in Snowdonia.
The wool’s natural properties allowed for breathability and moisture management, ensuring our feet stayed comfortable even during long hikes across varied terrains.
The design of these socks is also exceptional. The mid-calf length provides ample coverage and protection without being too bulky, and the socks have just the right amount of cushioning in key areas like the heel and arch for added comfort and support on rough trails. The reinforced toe and heel ensure durability in high-wear areas, which is particularly useful during more rugged hikes like those in Snowdonia.
After testing them in Snowdonia’s challenging conditions, we can confidently recommend them for their superior moisture-wicking, temperature-regulating properties, and durable design. Whether you’re navigating rough trails or simply exploring the outdoors, these socks provide the comfort, support, and performance every hiker needs.
"The Valley and Peak promise is built on three pillars: thoughtfully curated gear, exceptional customer service, and a genuine love for the outdoors. As an independent, family-run business, we carefully select products from a wide variety of cottage gear brands and trusted names, ensuring that each item is rigorously tested and loved by our team. Our customer service is a cornerstone of our brand, offering personalised support to help you choose and care for your gear with confidence"
