Socks

Fishing socks are usually bought for the cold season. Their purpose is to retain heat and evaporate moisture. They are therefore usually made from a mixture of merino wool and synthetics. If you are only looking for warm socks for sedentary fishing, choose socks that are as thick as possible and have the highest percentage of merino wool. But if your feet sweat a lot and you are an active fisherman, look for socks with a merino wool content of around 60 to 70 percent. Such fishing socks will not trap moisture and will push it away from the foot. Since fishermen usually wear eva boots with a removable vellum or a breathable shoe with a membrane, it is very important that the sock evaporates moisture well. There is no need to compare a quality merino wool sock with your grandmother's knitted wool sock. The sole of a plain knitted wool sock will become wrinkled and no longer keep you warm after just a few days of fishing, and all the moisture will evaporate and you will return with wet feet. They are simply incomparable and the whole legend of Grandma's warmest socks becomes worthless when you try modern quality socks. The price difference is several times, but the lifespan is several times.

One of the most popular socks among fishermen is Norfin Arctic Merino Heavy. They contain 70 per cent merino wool, nylon and elastane. They are very warm, but evaporate moisture well enough. You can buy these and other fishing socks online at the best prices.
