Product Description

Sometimes Simple is Better

By using premium materials while avoiding unnecessary frills, we’re able to offer premium socks at a fair cost. Our business model is simple: Keep it local and cut out the distributor and unnecessary big box retail markup.


Made with Premium Merino Wool	Comfortable & Durable	Odor Resistant	Neutral Color Options

Because socks are shelter... for your feet

People Socks was born out of one simple question, why should Merino wool socks be so expensive? We believe people deserve comfortable, quality socks that can live up to the demands of everyday use without having to pay an arm and a leg for them.

What's the deal with merino wool?

A natural fiber sourced from Merino sheep, Merino wool is lighter than cotton, breathable, highly elastic, unbelievably soft, and incredibly durable. It adapts to your body temperature, so you'll never get too hot or cold, no matter the weather. It's also sweat-absorbent, odor resistant, and dries fast.

We like to keep things local.

People Socks are proudly designed and knitted in the USA. That’s the way it’s always been, and that’s the way it’ll always be. Why? We believe “Made in the USA” is a badge of honor. By keeping manufacturing local, we can ensure that our socks are always the best they can be.

Love these thick winter socks!

Got some for me and the hubs and we’re ordering more. Soft and non-itchy, and warm. Definitely will need a looser fit shoe, these are thick and only slightly tighter around the arch. The elastic at the top is snug but not too tight, and fit over my thermal pants nicely. We’ve bought ours at $9-12 per pair, and feel they are well worth it for the warmth and comfort. We’ll definitely follow the washing instructions to ensure they dont shrink because we really like them!

I bought these socks more than six months ago and I wanted to see how they held up before submitting a review. I like to wear socks around the house and these are perfect for that. For me, they are the ideal thickness for durability and longevity, and keep my feet comfy and at an ideal temp. Unlike other brand/socks I’ve tried, these are excellent quality and a reasonably priced. Also a good boot sock. I will only buy these going forward.

Best socks!

Reviewed in the United States on December 7, 2023

Verified Purchase

I have purchased 3 packages of these socks and I am back for my fourth.

Comfort: I love that they are not restrictive, I don't even notice I'm wearing them. The elastic at the top is tight enough to hold them up but not enough that it is uncomfortable.

Warmth: Fantastic! I have Raynaud's and I am always cold. The difference after switching from cheaper wool socks to these was immeasurable. I used to have to wear those cheaper socks plus compression socks to keep my toes from going numb at work. I find that I still need to wear shoes/slippers at all times unless it is summer, but your mileage may vary especially if you don't have a circulation problem like I do.

Durability: In my daily usage they last about 1 1/2 - 2 years before the heel/toes wear out and need to be darned. (And you can darn these, they are nice enough to warrant the effort!) Two packs to last you daily wear for TWO YEARS!

My only socks!

Best value socks for wildland firefighting.

I purchased about 20 pair of these socks after trying to find a good replacement for the costco merino hiking socks that have been discontinued. I'm fairly certain this is the best value and quality for a wool sock that is actually majority merino wool, and not just polyester, and it's made in the US. I have a suspicion people socks may have been producing the costco socks. They're soft and wear in nicely, and seem to handle the abuse of a drier just fine, although that may cut down their lifespan.

I've been wearing these socks every day for work, and sometimes I end up wearing only 2 pairs over the course of two weeks or more when on a fire. They take forever to get gross, and if you switch them out daily you can get away with only a couple pairs over a long period of time. They also don't really seem to get stretched out like a 100% wool sock would. I also run in these year round unless it's REALLY hot.

they are a little short for an 8 inch boot, so I stretch and fold the sock over the top of my boot to keep it from falling down and secure the ends of my laces. This doesn't seem to hurt them.

TLDR: Great sock. don't buy anything with less than 70% merino

Best and longest-lasting socks I’ve ever owned

Reviewed in the United States on January 26, 2024

Size: Small-MediumColor: Small-medium 2xcharcoal Black,1xnavy,1xbrownVerified Purchase

These are without a doubt the best socks I have ever owned, bar none. I bought a set in 2016 that is still wearable – showing wear on the sole, of course, but no holes yet. I bought another set last year just to have more, and I’m getting another now to have enough to go on a long trip without worrying about laundry.

They’re comfortable, breathe so well it doesn’t matter what the temperature is, and they stay up without feeling constricting.

They wear and wash well. They do have some inconsistencies in the weave on some of them which makes them a bit more rustic if that matters to you…. I like that I’m supporting a U.S. company and U.S. made product

Awesome quality!

Reviewed in the United States on November 7, 2020

Size: Small-MediumColor: Small-medium 2xcharcoal Black,1xnavy,1xbrownVerified Purchase

Alright so, my boyfriend and I went on a backpacking trip about a month ago that was supposed to be fine but the trip was cut short by a major wind/snow storm in Wyoming. However, I wanted to write a review for everything we bought because some things held up surprisingly better than expected. The storm ended up getting to -8 degrees F overnight and was about 20 degrees F during the day while we basically hiked past our limit to get out of there because we were knew it wasn’t going to get any better and one of our dogs (a pug) was getting too cold, even with layered sweaters. Also, winds got to be up to 70 mph, so the wind chill made it much worse. This is the first time we had ever really dealt with snow/hail like this coming from Florida, so our gear helped us out a lot in getting out of there/surviving the night.

These socks kept our feet super warm our entire hike and extra time spent in Wyoming after that. In the snow storm, we layered two pairs of socks, so it helped to have those extra pairs in our packs. It also helped that our shoes were waterproof. Our feet stayed blister free as well! These are comfortable and good quality, so I highly recommend these for backpacking and general cold weather.
