Meet Point6 Merino Wool
With a new spin on traditional merino wool sock construction, Point6 is leading the way in the evolution of the merino wool movement. We have created a superior wool sock with increased longevity.
Our company name is derived from 98 point 6 degrees fahrenheit (the body’s optimal body temperature), and reinforces the benefits of maintaining optimum performance through the fantastic temperature stabilizing properties of Point6 merino wool.

Let customers speak for us
Merino wool socks are the way to go if you want to eliminate moisture and smell. Point6 has it down! And don't be put off by her term "extra light" or even "ultra light" - they are plenty tough enough to last a good long time. Happy trails!
I work at a ski area as the lift operations manager. I am out on my skis/working outside most days. These socks are warm and durable. Other wool socks haven't lasted as long as these have.
These are a great fit and are so comfortable. I would definitely buy them again if you add other colors!
Over more than 25 years of wearing various makes of merino wool socks, Point6 are simply the best I have found. These gloves are equally top quality. I’m very happy with their performance using them as liners or by themselves. Excellent fit!
I ski 6-7 days a week and these are my runaway favorite socks, I keep buying more even though they never wear out, just in case they stop making them.
Seems well-made and soft with interior thumb loops. My chest is about 36" which would put me as a size small according to the size chart. Went with the medium though and while it is a little loose in the chest/torso, I'm not sure a small would fit. Unstretched Medium chest = 36"; length (from base of collar down back) = 26.5"; sleeve length (from base of collar) = 29". Sleeve and body length are close to perfect for me with the medium and the arm fabric is touching my arms without stretching. A little loose in the chest/torso though. There's a lot more elasticity in the body than the arms. So I'd say if you want to go for a snug fit stick with the size chart, but if you want a looser fit or your arms are somewhat long/big order 1 size up. The bottoms definitely run a size small (I left a separate review for those).
I work in Lift Operations at a Colorado ski area. Many times when I ski to a station I am out of my skis and helping out. Loading guests, doing snow work so a durable warm sock is important to me. This sock fits the bill!!
I won my first pair of point 6 socks in a tackle package give away from the Texas Fishing and Outdoors radio show on KRLD. They were included in the package. O continue to wear them and have bought many more pairs. My all time favorite socks!p
They have the perfect amount of cushion for uphill backcountry climbing and are comfy coming down! The merino wool is so soft and keeps the toes cozy and warm!
I love the warmth of wool and love the coziness of this base layer. The fit is perfect. I got a medium for a 5ft8inch frame and long torso. I’m 145 pounds. Fits like a glove. Only draw back is that I do feel the texture of it. I wouldn’t say it’s itchy, it is just a rough texture. I’m willing to accept that to have the warmth and comfort of the wool next to me. I wear this every evening in a chilly house. I like the zip up collar.
These socks are amazing. Great fit, great feel, great rugged durable material.
My wife stumbled upon this brand while shopping for me and I have never gone back to the other guys, I dont want to use names so I will just make one up, lets just call it Smartwool, Never again…
