Tried these socks out on a recent trip to the lakes. I was very pleased with the comfort level tackling wet conditions under foot. I have recommended Moggans socks to my fellow walking mates.

Black / Large / 8 - 10.5

This is the 4th pair of Moggans socks that I have bought in the last 4 years . Without any doubt, they are the best socks I have ever purchased! They are well made, cushioned, very comfortable and last a long time !

Grey / Large / 8 - 10.5

Excellent socks, really comfortable.

Grey / Medium / 5 - 7.5

Lightweight, warm and a good fit

Grey / Medium / 5 - 7.5

Brought myself some socks as husband keeps telling me how brill they are for trail running when you get wet feet they still feel warm he’s right 🥰

Grey / Large / 8 - 10.5

Great quality, but grey is not a sporty colour

Grey / Medium / 5 - 7.5

Another great pair of merino socks , very comfortable to wear . When I bought my first pair of Moggans I was very sceptical as I wear through my socks very quickly however they do last !!

Grey / Large / 8 - 10.5

Love the socks as they stay up in wellies. Could just do with the heel reinforcement being a little higher up the back.

Black / XL / 11 - 13.5

A genuinely amazing trail running sock. By some alchemy, Moggans have managed to create a padded sock that is both warm AND cool when required, while also preventing blisters.
Oh, and they're super comfortable.
I'll be wearing mine for the 2026 UTMB Arc of Attrition....and if I can find the cash will be buying at least one more pair.
Highly recommended.

Grey / XL / 11 - 13.5

So far so good; don't notice them on my feet - which is what you want with a pair of running socks out on the trails. The lightweight has a good thickness for winter running.

Grey / Large / 8 - 10.5

Very comfortable lightweight socks. I use them for walks and motorcycling, quite warm considering the light weight.
I also have some Moggans heavyweight socks for winter use on the motorcycle but they are too thick for my walking boots which is why I bought the lighter weight socks.Prompt delivery from Moggans. Brilliant socks thank you.

Grey / Large / 8 - 10.5

Excellent socks , looking forward to giving them plenty of use on our trip to the Highlands and Islands next month… superb quality. Morgan’s is a very professional set up and an absolute pleasure to deal with
