Giro Merino Wool Hightower Socks

Giro's Merino Wool Hightower Socks look like cold weather socks at first glance, and though their thin construction and height suits them well to being layered under winter tights, they have their place on the trails year round. Their soft, merino wool blend exhibits excellent breathability and moisture wicking capabilities, and merino wool's ability to manage temperature makes it just as desirable in warm weather as in cold. If you've ever finished a ride with a mysterious rash or criss crossing pattern of scratches along your exposed ankles, you know how valuable the Hightower's knee high cuffs can be in the warmer months, offering reassuring protection against enterprising vegetation along the sides of your favorite trails.
