Brushtail Possum Socks

Zpacks Brushtail Possum Socks are designed to keep your feet warm when temperatures drop. Made in New Zealand from a blend of merino wool and possum fiber, they offer excellent warmth for their weight and have become a very popular choice for relaxing at camp or sleeping on multi-day trips.

Soft, comfortable, and warm, they are perfect for changing into at the end of the day and giving your feet a break after hours of walking. A small piece of gear that can make a big difference on cold nights.

When to use them

These socks are intended for activities in cold conditions, especially as camp socks or sleep socks. They are ideal for hiking, trekking, bikepacking, and trips where you want to add extra warmth to your sleep system.

They can also be used while walking in low temperatures or during winter activities. However, where they really stand out is inside your sleeping bag or while resting at camp after a long day in the mountains.

Design

Their thick, soft knit provides a pleasant sense of comfort from the first moment. Unlike regular socks, they are designed to prioritize warmth and comfort when the goal is to recover and stay warm.

Thanks to the fabric’s stretch, they fit the foot comfortably without feeling overly tight. They also take up very little space in your pack, making them easy to bring even on trips where every gram counts.

Made with merino wool and possum fiber

Brushtail Possum Socks combine merino wool with brushtail possum fiber from New Zealand. This combination offers an excellent balance of weight, softness, and warmth.

Possum fiber has a hollow structure that helps trap more air and improve insulation. Combined with merino wool, it creates a warm, breathable, quick-drying fabric that keeps feet comfortable even in cold and wet conditions.
