Description
Laboratory tests have shown that young yak wool is 18-20 microns long. It can be seen that the high-quality yak wool is at the same level as the second-class cashmere (16-19 microns). This type of wool is a valuable raw material that has reached the level of goat cashmere due to its elasticity. Yak down socks tightly fit the leg, they are comfortable, warm but not thick will not hamper movement. The sole uses the technology of strengthening the thickness of the material (double knitting). Socks will last a long time.

These are my favorite. Glad the yak logo was left off too.

The best hiking socks I have ever worn. I cannot recommend these highly enough, comfortable, moisture wicking, temperature regulating, sensational wet or dry.

I purchased Yak socks as Christmas gifts. Due to pandemic, it was possible they would not arrive in time. I was elated and grateful they arrived even earlier than I’d hoped. Yak is the warmest material I’ve ever worn. The gift recipients were overjoyed. Thank you!!

Not quite sure if I actually got this one as it does not look like picture. Probably my least satisfying one as the higher blend yak ones I have feel rougher/thicker. Think I got sheep wool socks instead which feels a bit disappointing. I say that because the actual feel of this is more smooth and reminds me of that. It’s still a great product and all my other purchases in camel,yak and cashmere has been great. Probably was out of stock or something got mixed up. Overall I am very pleased with this shop and will use again. Quick delivery as well.

Once you put your feet into these socks, you do not want to take it off. It is so warm and comfortable. I do not want to wear other socks any longer.

Good socks but they could be a little longer in the calf.
Further, when I checked my review on the website, my 4 star rating had magically been upgraded to a 5 star rating.

The socks are really great. They are thick and warm with just the right amount of elastic. The customer service was really good when someone emailed me directly to help me choose the right size. My only issue relates to the shipping. I paid $50 for the socks plus $10 for shipping, and then I received a surprise email from DHL requesting another $32 for duties and taxes. The email from DHL did not specify to what item it related, so I was unsure whether it was legitimate or a scam. The email required me to click on various links to learn more information, but I was reluctant to click on this unexpected email for fear it would infect my computer with a virus. I googled DHL to try to get the information from their website, but I could not access their website without accepting cookies, so I declined. I tried phoning DHL, but it was over the holidays and their offices would not open to answer phone calls before the stated deadline for paying the duties and taxes. So I deleted the email. Then I got two more warning emails that if I did not pay $32 my shipment would be returned to sender. In the end, I figured out that the email probably related to the socks, and so I clicked the link and confirmed this, paid the amount and the socks were delivered shortly thereafter. In total, they cost me $46 for each pair, including shipping, taxes, duties and the DHL fee. In sum, Mongulai and the socks are great, but it would have been preferable if I had been warned about this fee in advance, and DHL could really improve their communication.

These are the softest, warmest socks, but size up, since they tend to shrink in the wash, and be careful walking down hardwood stairs, since they can be slippy. These are great socks, though, and worth every penny — I just ordered five more pairs so that I can wear them every day of the week.

I ordered these socks a year ago and the ones that came this year were significantly bigger, tho I ordered the same size both years. I love the socks and the warmth, but your sizing seems off to me.

I paid too much duty fees for the socks. In the future please make it explicit on how to avoid duty charges. Otherwise the socks are really wonderful they were a gift for my wife. Thank you.

These socks are the best, super comfortable, super warm and they do not smell after days of not washing. These socks do shed a little bit of wool into lint balls, but it doesnt cause any issues. These would be too warm for hot climates, but otherwise are comfy to wear up to 75 degrees Fahrenheit. I recommend these to anyone on earth who likes wearing socks.

My absolute go to for multiday hikes carrying 15+kg. No friction, dont stink, super comfortable, only downside is they do wear out at the heel too quickly. Nearly 50 years of bushwalking and these are the best I have ever used.

These are warm socks in western Oregon weather which is a definite Plus! They fit nicely on my feet and prevent my feet from getting achy from the cold air which frequently has days and weeks of nonstop rain. Knowing that this order was coming from Mongolia made me patiently wait for it to arrive. Was hopeful that it would be delivered before winter weather had left the valley where I reside? They did not disappoint! The only thought was the picture of the Yak on the sock are of an American bison. Equally tough creatures in their own biome. But I actually have seen yak in a zoo in Minnesota and the body style is different including the horn structure. Otherwise I think it’s worth spending money on socks that prevent one’s feet from being too cold! Thanks for making them available in America.

As always amazing socks. Warm enough to be comfortable in Northern Minnesota.
