FAQs
Can I wear these without other socks?
Yes, they can be worn as standalone socks for light activities, though they are thin.
Are these socks waterproof?
No, these are liner socks made of merino wool and do not have a waterproof membrane.
How do I choose the right size?
The Suffield liners are close-fitting; choose your standard shoe size. If you are between sizes, refer to the manufacturer's size guide.
Will these help with blisters?
Yes, by reducing friction between your skin and your outer footwear, they act as an effective anti-blister layer.
Can I put these in the tumble dryer?
It is not recommended; heat can damage the merino wool fibers and cause the socks to shrink.
Are they itchy like traditional wool?
No, these are made from premium merino wool, which is known for being soft and comfortable against the skin.
Troubleshooting
Socks feel too loose inside boots
Ensure you are using the correct size; if the socks shift, try pairing them with a more structured outer sock.
Socks losing shape after washing
Always avoid high-heat drying; gently reshape the socks while damp and allow them to air dry flat.
Pros and Cons
Pros

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your merino wool liners, wash them in cold water on a delicate cycle using a wool-safe detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the fibers and reduce their natural wicking performance. Air drying is strongly recommended, as the mechanical action and heat of a tumble dryer can cause the natural wool fibers to shrink or degrade over time. These socks are compatible with almost all hiking, cycling, and running footwear, provided the outer shoe has enough room to accommodate the combined thickness of your layers.
