Buff has released a new series of socks which takes the brand beyond its usual head and neckwear offerings. 

The new Buff socks range is ‘purpose-built for active lifestyles’, according to the firm, which means that they can be used for all types of pursuits, including trail running and long-distance hiking. 

Available in two lengths – crew and quarter – the new socks utilise some of the features that you’d expect to find in Buff’s neckwear range. For instance, the CoolNet range of Buff socks are designed primarily for running as they help to keep your feet as cool as possible thanks to moisture-wicking properties. 

Then there’s DryFlx, which are running socks that get engineered compression, arch support and some light cushioning to help prevent blisters. They also incorporate HeiQ Mint Cooling to stop your feet from overheating. 

Then there are lightweight hiking socks, which are made from industry-standard merino wool. The ethically-sourced wool allows the socks to offer natural odour resistance and temperature regulation, but they’ve also got light cushioning and compression to help maintain stability and comfort – no matter how far you’re planning to go. 

The Buff socks have just launched on its website, with CooNet socks starting from £18.95.
