First opportunity I got, I applied a blister plaster to the tender area and carried on, hoping I’d caught it in time.

I got away with it, but I wasn’t happy the walking socks had let me down, and was also annoyed with myself for not trusting my instincts that the Mountain Warehouse socks didn’t seem as robustly designed as the rest of my hiking socks.

Long before the end of the section I was almost limping, knowing one foot had either blistered or was very close to doing so.

Isocool Hiker Socks – they’re comfortable, but spot the differences between them and my other hiking socks below.

In well over a decade of putting together Slow Travel holidays which involved walking significant distances over consecutive days, no problems with painful, fluid-filled bubbles. Breathable and fast drying, the antibacterial socks protect you against blisters and promote cool air circulation whilst active keeping you fresh and comfortable. I have a mix of synthetic and wool ones; the lighter synthetic material is useful for warmer and drier climates, whereas the wool walking socks suit cooler environments. After all, we spend a lot of time looking for the perfect walking bootsand hiking backpack, so we should also put some time into choosing comfortable walking socks.They come in different sizes and lengths for men, women, and children, and in a range of materials to suit your needs. They’re made of thick, durable cotton with our IsoCool treatment and a snug fit - for happy feet in the great outdoors. We’ve experienced long-distance walking in various countries around Europe, including the pine-strewn paths of Germany’s Black Forest; the volcanic terrain of Tenerife’s Teide National Park; along Crete’s rocky coastline, and on long stretches of foot-unfriendly tarmac on the Camino de Santiago.
