Silverlight Shorts
THE SILVERLIGHT ADVANTAGE
Real silver yarn, targeted cushioning and a secure performance fit work together to keep feet fresher, drier and more comfortable.

Targeted cushioning reduces friction at high-impact zones while the secure fit helps stop bunching and hotspots.

Real silver yarn fights odor-causing bacteria, helping your socks stay fresher between washes and on multi-day trips.

Fast-drying technical fibers, durable construction and trail-ready support are made to perform for hundreds of miles.

WHY SILVERLIGHT WINS
Rubbing and hot spots can turn a great hike into a painful walk back. Targeted toe and arch cushioning helps reduce friction, so you can focus on the trail ahead.
Long days shouldn’t end with embarrassing foot odor. Real silver yarn helps control odor-causing bacteria, keeping socks fresher through hikes, workouts and travel days.
Sweaty, damp socks are hard to ignore. Our fast-drying merino-nylon blend moves moisture away from your skin to help your feet stay drier and more comfortable.
Slipping and bunching create distractions—and friction. Gentle compression and an anatomical left/right fit help keep your socks in place, without constant tugging or adjustment.

SILVERLIGHT VS REGULAR ACTIVEWEAR
A silver-infused liner, quick-drying shell and secure storage work from trail to swim.
Silverlight shorts use pure silver yarn to help prevent odor-causing bacteria from building up in the fabric. From long days on the trail to multi-day trips, our silver technology helps keep your shorts fresher between washes—so you can keep moving with confidence.
We weave real silver into our socks to help tackle odor at its source: the bacteria that thrive in warm, sweaty footwear. Working alongside our merino blend, targeted cushioning and secure fit, silver helps keep your socks fresher through long hikes, workouts and busy travel days.
There are very few factories in the world who are able to work with silver yarns and can produce dual-layer socks with compression at the same time. It requires state of the art machinery, that's just been available in the last few years as well as knowledge how to blend silver yarns into the socks, a delicate process.
We have been testing factories throughout the world and we found only one that was able to produce Silverlight socks in the quality we require, a small specialized factory in China. Out of 15 factories, 8 of them in China, we were left only with one who is able to produce the socks that so many of our customers fell in love with.
Real silver yarn costs more to produce, but we believe its lasting odor-control benefits are worth it. Combined with our merino blend, targeted cushioning and secure fit, it is part of what makes Silverlight socks built for better miles.

Our socks are the only dual-layer compression hiking socks with silver yarns on the market. Compared to most hiking socks available, this is how Silverlight socks are different:
Silverlight socks have an anatomical design shaped specifically for your left and right foot. To tell them apart, look for “Venture” inside the front of the ribbed cuff on the left sock and “Out” on the right sock. You’ll also find a small “L” or “R” near the toe area for easy identification.
