Hiking Gear for Beginners - Hiking Socks
One of the most important choices a new hiker can make is which hiking sock to choose for their next adventure. The comfort of your feet goes a long way in determining whether you have a fun outing or one to forget. We take so many steps on our hikes that it is vital that we provide our feet with the proper socks to keep them in their peak performance zone.
This video discusses 4 things to consider before buying your first pair of hiking socks. I also discuss a few tips and tricks to be aware of as you search for the proper fitting hiking sock, for you. Some of the brands I show include Darn Tough, REI, Wrightsock, Injinji toe socks, Smartwool socks, and more...
