Details
The Women's Liner + Hiker is a perfect sock set for every hiking adventure - from a quick day hike to a multi-day backpacking adventure. The Liner is an ultra-thin baselayer designed to wick away sweat from your foot - keeping it dry and comfortable. Since the toes are separated, skin on skin friction is eliminated, helping to prevent blisters. The Hiker is worn over the Liner for increased cushion and protection. The Hiker mirrors the shape of your toes, providing more room and reducing bunching.
Blister Prevention
With each toe protected, skin-on-skin friction is completely eliminated protecting your foot from blisters & hotspots.
Moisture Management
Each toe is wrapped in sweat-wicking material so your foot stays drier and more comfortable than in traditional socks.
Total Foot Utilisation
Separated, aligned toes distribute weight evenly, allowing your entire foot to be engaged in activity.
Protective Cushion
Extra cushioning on the footbed to increase foot comfort.

Brand technologies, in plain English
InjinjiFive-Toe Design
Each toe gets its own sleeve, so skin never rubs on skin.
Injinji: "When your toes are separated, properly aligned and splayed, your weight is distributed evenly which allows your entire foot to be engaged in any athletic activity." With each toe wrapped, skin-on-skin friction between toes is eliminated. That friction is the most common cause of toe blisters.
InjinjiCOOLMAX
An enhanced polyester fibre that moves sweat away from skin fast.
Injinji: "COOLMAX® Fiber is an enhanced polyester fiber that provides superior moisture management and comfort." Drier skin is less prone to softening and blistering on long efforts.
InjinjiLYCRA
Stretch fibre that keeps the fit snug in every direction.
Injinji: "LYCRA® is a premium fiber blend that enables flexibility and movement with its bi-directional stretch." A sock that stays put can't bunch, and bunching is friction.
InjinjiDual-Layer (+ Liner)
A thin toesock liner under an outer sock, so the layers rub against each other, not your skin.
Runner+Liner and Hiker+Liner pair a lightweight five-toe liner with a conventional outer sock. Friction happens between the two fabric layers instead of at your skin, a long-standing approach for blister-prone feet on ultra distances and multi-day hikes.
Every technology explained in plain English. Supplier claims stay clearly labelled as theirs.
