woolen socks

Warm foot covers

Socks made from wool yarn, valued for warmth, moisture-wicking, and cushioning.

Woolen socks are standard gear for hiking, cold weather, and situations where feet need insulation: I always pack woolen socks for camping trips.

The term emphasizes material over style—functional rather than dressy.
