Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

The Ultra Light Coolmax provides maximum ventilation for warm conditions without sacrificing weight, comfort and cushioning. A great sock in a low, sports sock height. 

Bridgedale says

Ultra light T2 micro cushioned non-wool Coolmax® sock with sculptured ventilation for warm weather walking or trekking.

Our lightest non-wool micro cushioned sock for hot weather adventure, the Hike Ultra Light T2 Coolmax® Performance ensures your feet stay cool, comfortable and dry in hot climates.… Engineered advanced T2 zonal padding provides lightweight micro cushioning for comfort with minimal heat retention whilst the sculpted open mesh structure promotes easy moisture transportation away from the foot. Coolmax® Performance Fusion Technology provides outstanding moisture wicking, resilient T2 underfoot padding alongside the durability you would expect from Bridgedale. The Low height sits just across the ankle to provide discreet protection from footwear that won’t slip down or bunch in your footwear. The Flat Toe Seam minimises in the toe box and the sock is kept securely in place with an Elasticated Arch and 3D-shaped heel cup. Built on a structure of Lycra® and set by our Thermo Fit process ensures this sock returns to its original shape and size after every wash. This is the ideal choice for walkers, trekkers and travellers looking for comfort in warm, hot climates.

Our Verdict

Bridgedale’s Hike Ultra Light Coolmax Performance Ankle Socks combine comfort, style, cushioning and breathability really well. The Coolmax version is the most highly ventilated in range so they are best suited to warmer conditions or people who have hotter feet.

The zoned design allows the socks to maximise comfort by placing venting across the top while additional cushioning is placed around areas with the most impact. The synthetic blend wicks sweat well and means they dry at an impressive rate too.
