Serket has unveiled their line of Berry compliant US Merino wool socks, designed specifically for the specialized demands of the armed forces and elite law enforcement in collaboration with Point6.
“Serket set out to find the best wool sock in the outdoor industry and all roads led straight to Point6,”said Serket President, Trey Harris. “Point6 founder Peter Duke is one of the originators of the high-performance, high-quality Merino wool sock. This partnership allows Serket to bring the best the outdoor industry has to offer to the men and women of the armed forces.”
The Serket line of socks use the highest quality Merino wool fibers combined with state-of-the-art spinning and knitting techniques to create exceptionally soft Merino products. A high-tech spinning process allows for implementation of more Merino fibers per inch, creating remarkably soft wool that is never scratchy, itchy or bulky and more resistant to pilling and wear than traditional wool. I’ve been wearing the two models shown in the photos for the past few weeks and they are great. Granted, I’m quite familiar with the Point6 brand, and won’t hesitate to recommend them. My experience with Point6 is that they are heardwearing yet very comfortable.
Available in Light, Mid and Heavy Weights, the socks are offered in a variety of heights to effectively interface with a variety of boots and climates. Serket socks are made in the USA with both TAA compliant and Berry compliant Merino wool blends.

Early evaluation among users in the military and LE communities has yielded very positive reviews. A forward deployed operator with NSW Team Four remarked, “I am highly impressed with the Serket-Point6 sock. It holds up well, remains comfortable and seems to be the best balance I have seen between comfort and durability. “

You can’t get them there. They are a collaboration with Serket.
The Point 6 site only carries the commercial product – for the military product highlighted here – sales@serketusa.com
I’m still waiting for a combat sock with separate toes.
I see no where to purchase the socks shown in this post or alternatively on the serketusa or Point 6 site web sites.
But I’m having fun looking at the pics. ;)>
This is their recommendation for the tactical market on their website: http://www.point6.com/collections/tactical
That doesn’t include these socks.
Nice. I’ve been wearing nothing but SmartWool and Point6 for the past two years. They’re worth every penny.
Excellent product, been wearing a pair off and on for 3 months. Highly recommend for anybody who spends time on their feet.
