Really warm and soft

Really amazing - so happy I purchased!

Extremely comfortable and versatile socks. The tighter section around the ankle ensures these ankle socks don't slip below the top of my runners. nThey grey colour is really versatile and I can wear them with any outfit. nThe padding and material keeps my feet cool in summer and warm in winter. They are moisture wicking and don't smell. Really comfortable to wear with my runners no matter what exercise I am doing. Highly recommend and well worth the money.

I have two of these versatile and sporty t-shirts in red and blue, and they're probably the most comfortable "technical" t-shirts that I've ever tried on. The fabric is simply lush as it's made from a 50% merino wool and 50% Ultra-fine Schoeller Polypropylene blend, giving it unique moisture-wicking and breathable qualities that other sporty t-shirts won't have. These interesting merino fusion garments are created by Wilderness Wear as a way to enhance the natural qualities of merino wool, and transform them into a more practical and light garment.nThe fabric instantly stood out when I tried these tops on. It's smooth, light and totally non-irritating to my sensitive skin. Usually I wear polyester t-shirts to run but these t-shirts felt so much better compared to the normal ones that I have. I love the cut and design too, as they're slim-fitting, gorgeous and so much better than the other exercise garments that I have in my drawer. I wear them jogging all the time and they're holding up beautifully.

MerinoFusion Light 160 Short Sleeve -nGreat on warmer days for ski touring climbs, and cooler days for running. I really rate these and have hammered them every weekend since I got them. They are probably my favourite item so far. The only negative I could find is the fit. I reckon there's room for a slightly smaller size below the small I have. I find them just a tad loose with a slight tendency for the collar to pull back/sit too high at the front. Mostly this isn't an issue - for snow it’s preferable in my opinion to have the relaxed fit. However in thicker vegetation, particularly when moving at speed without the buffering assistance of a pack, I find they can tend to get hung-up occasionally.

The first thing I noticed about these bamboo socks is how soft they are. On the foot they are comfortable and well fit without being too tight around my calf. I also love the colours on the black and pink design.  The cushioning and extra padding at the toes, heel and whole underfoot is excellent and so comfortable.

I received my order yesterday and road tested the socks and the MerinoFusion light long sleeve top on a very soggy hike up Mt Macedon this morning. They are both impressive and the wicking quality of the top especially, is so much better than any other base layer I have tried. Thanks so much for having the green made per my special request.

I have a size 8 grey version of this top. I usually wear it over a singlet or as a base thermal layer although I occasionally wear it as a casual long sleeve top with a pair of jeans. nnI am a small 163cm and this size 8 is very firm fitting (just how I like it and perfect for a bottom layer). nnIt keeps me really warm in cold conditions and is extremely comfortable both in the fit and the material. Sometimes I find marino a bit scratchy and irritating on my skin but this blend is extremely comfortable.

Training for ultrarunning I have spent plenty of time and money looking for the illusive perfect run sock this is as close as I’ve found. Here is why – comfort and construction are first rate, fit is perfect with most other short run socks length is too short allowing shoe heal rub and trail trash to get in, these sit just above the ankle; cushion is ample reducing fatigue also preventing the dreaded lost toenails trailrunners get; no blistering whatsoever even running through water, whilst raining or extreme heat which means no more toe socks, value for money these will outlast several pairs of cotton/polyester socks while outperforming them in every way; merino socks I’d wore previously were a compromise of comfort/ durability/ functionality WW have brought all the good features together at the same price; support a locally owned and ethically made product of Australia.

I'd been meaning to give you some feedback on the Merino Fusion Max socks. Used one pair for 6 cold, wet and snowy days on the Overland. Was really impressed by their warmth, minimal water absorption and that they didn't get that polypro odour. Was hard to leave my Overland hikers at home, but really liked the MF Max. Think only days I had mildly unhappy feet were day 5 (6 hours of waist deep trail breaking in the snow) and day 6 (5 hours of walking in snowmelt/creeks over boot height).

Congratulations guys. It’s still really warm up in SE Qld. My Beast2 socks bought start of last year are getting hot and thin. I ordered some new Beasts last Friday. They arrived today which is just awesome supply chain work from team Wilderness Wear. Thank you for your great work and of course kudos to Aust. Post who are working through Covid-19 limitations and big volumes. So big ups to WW and Aust. Post. It means I’m in my new Beasts 2 socks on my next work day and can have comfortable feet.
