Slip on the Teko Men's EcoMerino Mini Crew Sock and get ready to have a comfortable, blister-free hike across the valley. The EcoMerino wool pushes moisture away from sweaty feet, preventing hot spots and uncomfortable clamminess. The Teko Mini Crews are also itch-free, so it doesn't feel like you're wearing a scratchy horse blanket around your feet. Finally, it feels good to know that all the sheep that donated their warm coats were fed three squares everyday, protected from the Big Bad Wolf and enjoyed wandering endless fields of green.
teko socks in general last about 10x longer than smartwool. these are my race socks. i set them aside for racing or a long adventure run. the wick well and are just super comfy and fit nice around the mid foot. hands down the best trail running socks i've ever worn.
Socks were good at first, but after a couple of washes they are even better. They kind of thicken and tighten up a bit. Now they are my favorite socks. I'm gonna get some more.
I wasn't going to review these socks, because who really needs a sock review, right? However, these socks, the SmartWool PhD Outdoor Ultra Light Mini Sock, and the SmartWool PhD Outdoor Light Mini Socks are my go-to socks for workouts, hiking, backpacking, and hanging out. They have never failed me, and I am able to use them for multi-day trips without changing them. I just wanted to pass on my satisfaction with these. I haven't had the durability issues others have, but your mileage may vary. I would recommend them.

I recently switched to merino wool socks full time, selecting a few pairs from a couple of different couples. Maybe I lucked out with my Fits Brand socks but these just aren't as comfortable as I'd like. Sure they're lightweight, don't smell and good for physical activity but they get itchy, almost too itchy.
I bought some Teko socks for a 3 day backpacking trip. I brought 2 pairs. The socks are really strong and held up against a good amount of abuse. I took them through water, mud, and they had to deal with my sweaty hogs for up to 10 hours a day. The socks dried out very fast, and kept the moisture away from my feet. They seemed to mold to my feet, and in that protected the soft parts of my feet. THey are a decent pair of socks, and would recommend them for any hiker that wants to invest in there feet.
Of the 5-6 different low cut hiking socks I tried, I liked these almost as much as my favorite the smartwool adrenaline light. If the smartwools didnt exist, these would be my socks. Good fit and padding, no itch, good hot weather comfort.
These are good socks. They are dry & comfortable. They are thin which is how I like them. I've worn them to work, then exercised, then to work the next day and they do not smell.
Brand new merino socks are one of life's great pleasures, but Merino is notorious for wearing out quickly. Maybe due to the poly/lycra blend in this sock, it's holding up very well after 3 months of use. I've hiked, biked and worn the sock casually as well. So far so good.
