Description

This sock feels supple and stretchy and reaches to just below your knee. The seamless construction sits smoothly in your shoe and the soft inner layer feels nice on your skin. It stays comfortable even after hours out.

It works best when the paths get really wet. Think of a winter trail with deep puddles, muddy forest paths or a long hike through tall wet grass. You notice it at every deep puddle: where water spills over the top of a short sock, your lower leg stays dry here.

Torn between the long and the short version? Choose this one if you want extra protection around your ankles and lower legs. If you mainly run on wet but flat paths, the short version is lighter and airier.

In short: the most protection when it's really wet.

Why Extremities?

Cold fingers, a wet hat or soaked socks: in winter it's often your hands, head and feet that give up first on the trail. That's exactly why we carry Extremities at Trail.NL.

This British brand has been making gloves, hats, neck gaiters and socks for your extremities for over forty years. From thin liners for crisp mornings to waterproof socks and mitts for wet, cold days in the hills.

For us, Extremities is above all a specialist: not a brand that does a bit of everything, but gear that keeps you warm and dry where it matters most.

Frequently asked questions

Is the sock really waterproof?

Yes. Between the outer and inner layer sits an X-Dry membrane with a hydrostatic head of over 7,500 mm, and Extremities offers a waterproof guarantee. Of course it can't stop water that runs over the top of the sock.

What's the difference with the Evolution Waterproof Sock Short?

The Long reaches to just below the knee and also protects your lower leg. The Short comes just above the ankle, is lighter and suits mild weather better.

Is the sock breathable?

The membrane is breathable, so some moisture from your foot can escape. A waterproof sock does stay warmer than a regular running sock.

Which size should I choose?

Pick the size that covers your shoe size: 36–38, 39–42, 43–46 or 47–49.
