I know what you’re thinking: ‘Cotton is supposed to be cool so shouldn’t I wear it in the summer?’ The short answer is, no. The truth is, cotton is not cool. The fabric will absorb up to 10x its weight in moisture so if you sweat at all, it’s damp and uncomfortable. And ultimately, it will make your feet stink. An often overlooked improvement is Merino wool, which naturally moderates the climate (cooling when warm, insulating when cold) of the wearer.
But an EVEN better choice is Arrowool™ by WORN. Arrowool™ is a patented, performance-enhanced Merino that combines the comfort of an organic fiber with the performance of a technical fiber.

Arrowool™ begins as 100% organic Merino and is then enhanced with technical fibers to introduce performance features like staying 10x dryer than cotton, incredible wicking performance, zero itch – and oh, they won’t lose their shape in the wash, which is fantastic.
WORN makes a variety of Arrowool™ socks, but two of our favourites for summer are the T3 Ankle and the Everyday Enhanced. The T3 Ankle has a Jacquard knit arch support, channel-targeted cushion, and a perfect fit that will help prevent blisters.
The Everyday Enhanced is an all-climate sock that is perfect for everyday wear, whether you’re working outside, on the go, or just relaxing at home. All WORN socks are designed to meet the needs of workers and outdoor enthusiasts. Each line has specific features to improve comfort, performance, and durability. The proprietary blend of technical and organic fabrics provides support and breathability.
WORN believe that there is always room for improvement, and they are constantly working to make our technical socks and baselayer products the best they can be. It’s clear they value feedback from their customers, and they use it to make changes and improvements to our products between each production run.
If you’re looking for a comfortable, dry, and stylish sock, Arrowool™ from WORN is definitely the way to go in our opinion here at Coolector HQ. Check out WORN’s website to learn more about their products and why once you wear WORN, you won’t go back.
