The Extremities Light Hiker Socks are warm and comfortable with enhanced wicking properties. Ideal for walking, trekking and backpacking through most of the year.
| Description | Features |
| A lightweight, highly technical sock. Ideal for Spring, Summer and Autumn use, what ever the weather. COOLMAX® technology is combined with Wool Ultra™ to provide superior moisture managment, reduced friction, better recovery from compression alongside increased warmth. Padding round the ankle, toe and heel provide excellent comfort and protection as well as ensuring a secure fit. Ankle and instep grip bands reduce sock movement which helps to prevent blisters. |

The Light Hiker Socks are comfortable walking socks that are ideal for trekkers and backpackers. They're made from warm wool and breathable Coolmax polyester among other principally stretchy things, though on inspection you'd be forgiven for thinking they were pure wool. A light, breathable cuff aids ventilation, and a thick pad and reinforced heel provide good cushioning.
With such a luxurious weave, durability might not be their strong point, but when socks feel this good you won't care.

We aim to ship all orders placed before 3pm Monday to Friday, on the same day. Free shipping is offered for UK Orders over £15 order value. The form of shipping will be at our discretion and will be at the most cost effective service. For most parcels this will be Royal Mail Second Class Post, the timescale for delivery is not guaranteed but Royal Mail aim to deliver second class post in 3-4 working days. Some parcels may require a signature.
Faster shipping options can be purchased at the checkout - see the drop down menu, First Class post is available, as is Next Working Day Delivery. We can arrange Next Day Delivery for a Saturday (when the order is placed on Friday) - call us for charges on an individual basis (01740 661467).
We aim to ship all orders placed before 3pm the same day. The default shipping is 'Standard Delivery'. This is an airmail service which does not offer tracking but is very reliable. We have learned from experience that transit times for non-UK orders can be very unpredictable. To geographically close countries in Europe the times are generally up to 4-5 days but can sometimes take a lot longer - we don't know why.
So, for EU Orders over £15 in value we offer FREE delivery, but the service time is unpredictable. If you need your order by a specific date you can opt for a faster service at the checkout.
Faster tracked shipping options can be purchased at the checkout - see the drop down menu on the checkout page for options. Typically the service we can offer is 2,3 or 4 working days, if you require a faster delivery than is showing on the drop down menu please contact us at info@worldbackpacker.co.uk as we may be able to help.

To geographically close countries in the times are generally up to 4-5 days but can take a lot longer - we don't know why. Countries farther afield generally take longer but the spread of transit times is amazing, we have been notified of parcels arriving in Australia after 3 days and others taking a month and (rarely) longer than this.
So, while the shipping options for ROW are quite cheap the service time is unpredictable.
