How are these for warm/hot desert hiking? Do they get too hot or sweaty?

Hiked in Utah when temp was around 80...my feet did not sweat. Love these socks! Took quite a long hike: no blisters!!!

I have used these on hikes of 10 miles and more and on the treadmill and have never had chafing. They do get your calves warm in a hurry.

I live in Vegas and it's hot and dry. I don't know how they'd be in humid weather, but mine lasted about 6 months and definitely got crunchy after each game. Switched to a 50 dollar Nike pair and never going back.

I have never had a problem with them being to hot or sticky. I took a 200 mile trip and they were fine.

These gloves are wonderful for summer hiking. They keep your hands from getting sunburned, and they also protect your hands while bouldering. But the material isn't thick enough to keep your hands warm.

I live in north texas very hot very humid and I wear them every day at workAs a marine mechanic. They are a little warm at first but after 5 or so washes they breathe much better. Even new they still breath better than jeans.

They seem to be. I only wear them in the gym and I get pretty sweaty. Of course, I can't vouch for what your experience will be.

I bought these for my daughter, she wore them during hot yoga with no problem, and that was LOTS of sweat! Hope this helps...

These are intended for running so I'm not sure how how they'd work for hiking.

This shirt is designed for warm weather, as it has many different ventilation flaps to help air circulate. It would make for a great hiking shirt on warm hot days, as it keeps you cool and does not hold any type of sweat. It is very thin and lightweight.

They are pretty light-weight. I got them to wear in a tropical climate. The zip off feature is a nice bonus, too. They dry quickly as well.

I bought a pair of them in different colours. Waist size is critical when selecting your item and fitts rather Ok. The feeling when wearing this wide built trousers is very comfortable although different if compared with other brands more fitted. If you want this garment to hike this is a good choice. I have been along Atacama desert and more then happy. Good luck hope having helped

I use these in the tropics 87-91F temperatures and they are comfortable keep my feet secure against blisters and I like the reflectors (visibility for drivers at evening/night).overall a good buy for me

They are cushioned, so they do provide a bit of insulation. I'm in AZ, and it's just now starting to dip into the 30's in the evening they do keep my feet pretty warm, but not as well as the full cushioned hiking socks Darn Tough also sells, if you're in an area with snow, you'll probably want the full cushion.

We are by no means avid backpackers. We used these for our children on a few cold weather camping trips. They worked fantastic in 12* weather. They pack down small but I have seen smaller. That being said we camped for 7 days and had no issues with it. But it may be cumbersome on a long hiking trip. Overall great quality, comfort and ease or use!

No, feet never have felt hot, I only wear them to work in the garden and other outside work, wore them to Walmart once because I left in a hurry and had compliments, feet weren't hot.

They get hot really fast. I just touch the top and if they feel hot I put them on. It isn't rocket science.
