EVERYONE NEEDS A HUG

The sock equivalent of a really good hug.

We’re usually pretty good at telling you to get out there, do stuff and stop making excuses.

But we have a softer side too.

DELIVERY TIMEFRAMES

We endeavour to ship most parcels within 24-48 hours, but sometimes we run slow so if your order is mission critical leave an order note so we can expedite your order where possible.

A sock for serious adventurers, the Explorer Merino Endurance Boot sits at an ideal height for boots with an extended ankle cuff. Featuring cushioning throughout for warmth and engineered advanced zonal padding system for support and comfort, this is the ultimate sock for long or multiday high mountain and winter 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 no matter how long the day. The toe box is closed with an insulated Flat Toe Seam to prevent cold spots and the sock is kept securely in place with an Elasticated Arch and 3D-shaped heel cup. Built on a structure of Lycra®, allows our Thermo Fit process to ensure the sock returns to its original shape and size after every wash. Tested by Explorers in the coldest, most extreme places on this planet this sock delivers more comfort and warmth than any other Bridgedale sock and is the ideal choice for cold-weather expeditions.

Features:
  • Mountain and winter expeditions
  • Cushion comfort throughout
  • Double density pads underfoot
  • Double cuff
  • Warm, full terry leg
  • Double density pads underfoot

    Best socks eva

    I don't usually write reviews however, these are the best socks ever- glad to have found them again.
    I have a pair I purchased to walk the Overland track in 2006 and I still use them-so there you go-they last, and are great to wear.

    Love these lightweight socks! They do the job, without feeling like the traditional heavy, thick hiking socks. Quick delivery too!

    Proper thick, warm socks

    These are proper thick, warm socks in an era of thin socks all made in China. Well worth the extra expense.

    Too long to ship

    I paid for express shipping expecting a swift process, it took the store 8 days to even ship the goods. Pretty disappointing.

    Hi Jon,

    Thanks for your message and sorry to hear that. Note, we did communicate there were delays with Bridgedale at the time of ordering on the product page and at checkout page, and that Bridgedale may not ship immediately even with Express. Not to worry as these messages are sometimes missed. Hope you like the socks though.

    Regards,

    Always a good hiking sock. A staple in my wardrobe which I stock up on regularly whenever they are on sale. I never get hot feet in them and they are very comfortable.

    Bridgedale cool max ultra light

    Fine socks, i have been using this brand for about 30 years with a view to ultra running etc. Since moving to NZ from UK i have found the full range hard to find so when i see them i get them. It takes way too long to get here after ordering them (i thought they came from Aussie). They need to look at their courier company because 2-3 weeks from Australia to NZ is silly. I get stuff from Uk in half the time so its not a covid excuse issue. However these socks are light and durable and of good quality. I use them for weight training, mt biking in cooler weather (in hot weather they are too much) and general hiking with the dog. High enough for boots and ok for trainers they are pretty good all rounders.

    Could be improved

    The foot is comfy, but the elastic around the top is too tight. Not good with varicose veins.

      Why Your Socks Make Your Feet Feel Wet (And How To Stop It)

      We had someone reach out recently with a cracker of a question:

      “I’m typically in shoes for up to 16 hours per day, the merino‑cotton blend I’ve been using unfortunately leaves my feet damp, wet, although comfortable.”

      If you read that and thought, “Yep, that’s me,” then welcome — you’re among friends. Damp-feeling socks are one of the most common complaints we hear, and the good news is: you can fix it.

      Running Toe Socks: Why Your Toes Might Thank You

      Toe socks aren't for everyone. And we're perfectly happy saying that.

      They're a little different. They take a few seconds longer to put on. You need to get each toe into its own little compartment, make sure everything is sitting snugly and then you're ready to go.

      It's not exactly the sort of thing you want to be doing when you're already late for the train because you will miss it.
