Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

Designed for outdoor enthusiasts who walk long distances all year round, the Hike Midweight Performance ensures dry and comfortable feet all day on any adventure.

Bridgedale says

Originally named the Trekker, this sock changed the expectations of a hiking sock forever.

Engineered advanced zonal padding system for support and comfort this is the ultimate sock for long or multiday expeditions. Merino Performance Fusion Technology provides resilient padding, balanced insulation, moisture wicking and outstanding durability for all day comfort.

The Performance Fit is close and supportive and won’t slip down or bunch in your footwear. The Flat Toe Seam minimises bulk that could cause irritation in the toe box and the sock is kept securely in place with an Elasticated Arch and 3D-shaped heel cup. Built on a structure of Lycra® and set by our Thermo Fit process ensures the sock returns to its original shape and size after every wash. Tested and loved by 1000’s of walkers, hikers and explorers the Trekker has been copied but never bettered.

Our Verdict

These Bridgedale socks are designed for summer use when venting is of primary importance – they achieve this by having quite thick padding at the heel and toes but very light socking between these areas this will allow air to travel up these channels – thus creating a cooling effect.
