Full Disclosure: I received a pair of socks free of charge for the purpose of providing a review. My opinions are completely my own based on my experience.
My feet are always cold... always.. and this time of the year into the Winter, it can be really painful - especially when I'm running/hiking/exercising.
It's easy for to me to 'layer' to keep my body warm, but keeping my feet warm isn't as easy. I was excited to give Cloudline Premium Merino Wool Socks a try.
Because the Cloudline socks were a little thicker than my normal socks I was a little concerned that maybe they would be too thick for my trail shoes. Surprisingly
they weren't. The fit was more 'snug' than I am used to, but it felt fine.
I took them for a test run out on the Appalachian Trail. It was great to be back on the trail.
However, I didn't expect the temperature drop, and I wasn't prepared for it! And I definitely wasn't prepared for the sleet and snow showers that seemed to come out of nowhere!
I was freezing ... except for my feet! Seriously, they were warm - comfy warm. It was awesome and unexpected!

I love the height of the sock. Being a road runner, who is doing more trail running, most of my socks are low trainers. The height of the Cloudline Wool socks were long enough to cover my ankle and part of my calf, but not too long that it felt uncomfortable with my *affiliate link calf sleeves. (Yes, I always wear compression calf sleeves. For me personally, it really does help with muscle cramps).
The Cloudline socks were soft and not scratchy. And my feet, in addition to being warm, were also dry. I want to clarify that my feet were not hot - so don't think that these socks will be too hot to wear. They simply kept my feet warm verses painfully cold.
On a side note, with running comes lots of laundry. I think you can identify! And the Cloudline Premium Merino Wool socks have held up well.
Overall, I am enjoying my pair of Cloudline socks, and I would definitely recommend them to others. In fact, you can save 15% with code GLASS15 .
Time to get outside and enjoy some fresh air!
