Buff says:
Step into comfort with ethically sourced merino wool, designed for natural temperature regulation, moisture management, and odor control. Thoughtfully crafted with light cushion zones for all-day endurance, flat seams for seamless comfort, and engineered arch compression for unwavering support. A crew-height fit delivers versatile performance, keeping you moving with ease.
Our Verdict
At 54g (Large pair), the Buff LW Merino Wool Crew Socks use a blend of merino, recycled polyester, polyamide and elastane to deliver temperature regulation, odour resistance, and resilience. Light cushioning at key points gives comfort without bulk, while flat seams prevent rubbing over long distances.
The engineered arch compression provides gentle support, helping the socks stay secure without slipping or creasing. Breathability is strong for a wool blend, with the synthetics aiding quick drying and shape retention. The result is a versatile, lightweight sock that feels stable and comfortable while still allowing heat and moisture to escape.
