DeFeetWooleator 5 Inch Sock(Return to Product Page)

I bought these socks for a 2,500 mile bike tour this summer. I wanted something with a high merino wool content for odor and heat regulation, and these socks tick both those boxes. So far I've worn them to work and on training rides, and I'm very happy with them. My feet tend to get a bit sweaty, and that's been no problem with these socks.

The fit is very good for me. They do fit snugly above the ankles, though I don't mind that, and it's only noticeable when putting them on or taking them off.

I started out wearing Smartwool and while they are comfortable, they wore out quickly. I have worn some of my Defeet Woolerators hundreds of times and they take one heck of a beating. Of course, all the great things people say about wool are true and my long-time fight with athlete's foot was won by them as well.

wool is amazing. you can wear these socks in any conditions. they are great because the still provide some warmth when wet. i wear a size 12 shoe and go the xl.

Defeet have been great socks for me the last 15 years. Very well made and tough material.

I've been wearing these socks for years and found them to be the toughest merino wool sock. Some pairs have been worn and washed 2-300 times.

The Wooleator sock has become my go to sock for both warm and cold weather riding. Its not a stretchy as a cotton sock but it drys faster and is warmer than the other socks I have.

I needed these socks this season and they didnt disappoint. Will purchase again

I wear these socks nearly year round. I have worn Defeet wool socks for years and have always been happy with the performance. I will say, however, that wool socks typically don't last as long as nylon socks. The fibers will tear over time and create a hole.

Excellent comfort in every ride. Good for group weekend ride

A little thin, but I have 6 pairs - I wear them with everything. I'm a size 11 and order the XL for perfect fit.

These socks will keep your feet warm and dry in chilly weather. I've been wearing them in temperatures ranging from the mid thirties to mid fifties and they are very comfortable.

Great socks

Exactly as described. Nice looking and functional

Exactly as described. Functional and of good quality

These nice wool socks are great, They work for rides or with my business casual pants. Work in any weather.

Have 3 pair of these. Nothing much to say, they do what socks are supposed to do.

Not a heavy weight sock, but works well on cool days. I use a thin liner sock underneath for added warmth.

I love wearing these socks, there's nothing to not like!

Absolutely LOVE these socks. I'll ride outside in temps as low as 40 or so and these are GREAT. With a neoprene shoe coverbootie, my feet are toasty warm, and never hot and sweaty. The higher top keeps out potential drafts where your cycling tight or leg warmer goes into the bootie. Super staticky in the clothes dryer so if you can't find one after laundry, it's likely stuck to something else.

I first bought them with the onset of late fall in the upstate NY climate. They work so well that I've usung them now in the middle of winter for EVERYTHING! Riding, taking a morning walk-about, shopping, etc. They're my go-to everyday foot covering.
