Insect Shield Heavyweight Hiking Socks Khaki

Insect Shield Heavyweight Hiking Socks combine built-in Permethrin—an EPA-registered insect repellent—with durable construction designed for serious outdoor pursuits. The repellent is bonded directly to the fabric fibers, providing protection against mosquitoes, ticks, ants, flies, chiggers, and midges for up to 70 washes without reapplication. Unlike topical sprays, Insect Shield technology stays on the fabric, not your skin. There's no sweating it off, no skin absorption, and no risk of inhalation—making these socks safe for the whole family. A soft, sustainable fabric blend delivers moisture-wicking performance and breathability. Built-in cushioning and flat seams reduce blisters during long days on the trail. The snug, slip-resistant fit keeps socks in place through hiking, camping, gardening, or backyard time. Hypoallergenic and true-to-size, they require no special care—just regular washing and drying. Made and tested in the USA, these heavyweight socks are built for extended backcountry trips and rugged terrain where insect protection matters as much as comfort.
