- In this video, I review the Silverlight hiking socks, which, in my opinion, are the best thru-hiking socks ever. I thru-hiked over 900 km with them and I got zero blisters along the way. They're still going strong and I will continue using them for the foreseeable future.

Horizon - Primaloft Explorer Extreme socks have Silver Yarn from Primaloft!
If I'm not mistaken, Horizon are made in Italy and the Silver Yarn are made in Germany. I was blown away with the quality, comfort, cushioning.
Glad you agree bro 😎
Your videos are very thoughtful and helpful.
Wishing you all the best.
Take care.
Paldies par ieteikumu, tieši meklēju jaunas zeķes garākam through hike. Pasūtīju, kods vēl strādā! 🙌
hey buddy, I ordered a pair to try them out. thanks for your suggestion. have a good one ☀️👍
Thanks . I like them
Hi Oscar what’s the sizing like on Silverlight I’m a UK 11 EU 46 and they say XL. I’m normally in a medium or large.
Bridgedale...... thats all anybody needs to know!!
50 years taught me that.
Has anybody else tried, Horizon - Primaloft Explorer Extreme socks please? They have the Silver Yarn mentioned in this video and it's an Italian brand. Are these beter than Smartwool socks? I'm searching for the best I can get, for not the coldest weather, but still winter medium length hike/trekking socks, on rocky/gravel and mud paths. Thanks in advance
I can not recommend the silverlight store. I ordered and paid 3 pairs of socks but didn‘t get a tracking number for shipping. Asked 4 times per Mail for this without getting any answer nor the socks jet. But they send up to 2 marketing mails evelyn day. I think I lost my money without getting the socks because I live in Germany and can‘t do anything from here.
for me socks play zero part in blisters or no blisters. i can wear the same socks in different shoes and in certain shoes i always develop blisters, even after just an hour of walking. and in other shoes i am comoletely bluster free. all the time wearing the same socks.
Ordered the wrong pair of socks and just cant get anyone to exchange them I'm not even asking for a refund. Beware of this company!!!
By now while they’re on sale! Usually $96.00 now just $79.00. For one pair of socks. You’ve got to be shitting me.
I think it's for a 3 pack. 😅 i bought the long ones for 27 eur back in summer and the short ones for 23. It looks like the long ones are 30 now.
Yes, they're absurdly overpriced. And they sell them in 3 5 and 7 packs so you'd have to buy them twice to get an even amount. Not even willing to buy them to compare them to darn tough.
The $79 is for three pair. I think the price is fair enough because it can solve two biggest issues we have on thru hiking that are blisters and bad smell.
Regular price is $25 for ankle socks and $32 for crew socks with quantity discounts for 3-packs and 5-packs. We have actually lower margins than other brands and can only offer these prices because we sell directly to consumers. About 50% of our production cost is just the raw material for the silver yarn.
@@xFlazz socks come in pairs, so you’re always going to get an even amount……….
is there silver in the socks … not good for your body.
Theres nothing better then the wool socks or clothing. Its a natural material, it will keep u warm during winter and get u isolated during summer, it breeds, it will not smell, and it will not hurt u with any hemicals etc. Only downside is that is expensive but if u are going to invest in something, invest in good wool clothing.
Have you tried the Horizon - Primaloft Explorer Extreme socks?! I can't describe how great they feel, how comfortable.they provide perfect cushioning, without feeling super thick and generaly, they feel really high quality. I used these with my Hanwag Tatra II, that I had also changed their poor insoles.The feel and the performance I ge from the boots, is night and day, I wouldn't believe, that you can get that kind of crazy levels of stability and that comfort in the same time!
PS I haven't tried many others, only Hanwag Merrino hiking Socks. which suck! nowhere near, what Horizon are!! Literally, I can't imagine that better socks exisr. I could be wrong though! Anyway,Happy new Year!!!
@@greekveteran2715 i dont know where are u from, but in my country u can buy pair of 100% wool socks made by our viligers from a domestic sheeps for about 6 euros, i use them in a vinter, they are very thick, and in the summer i use marino wool socks.
