Fast-Drying Tilley Socks and Underwear


By Ramsey

Tilley’s travel products are excellent companions for long business trips or even outdoor vacations. Laundry stuffed into a plastic bag can often leave odiferous memories of your trip especially if items are damp. I certainly have been caught in impromptu rain storms or traipsed through puddles that leave my socks drenched. These Tilley travel socks have moisture-escaping panels for quick drying, which not only keeps your feet more comfortable but also helps to eliminate blisters. The fast-drying material and an odor-reducing component in the material allow me to pack fewer pairs of socks during my travels.

Another problem that I seem to have with my socks is holes in the toe area. Frequent walking seems to be the culprit, and Tilley guarantees their socks to remain hole-free for at least three years. I have not owned them long enough to test that feature out, but just knowing that Tilley makes this promise is reassuring enough. These socks are also mid-calf length making them great for wearing loafers or higher boots.

Tilley’s travel briefs and underwear are composed of the same fast-drying fabric that is soft and comfortable. They come in a variety of styles including briefs and boxer briefs for men and low and high-cut briefs for women. The colors are a bit uninspiring with simple greys and whites predominating, but these are more about comfort and durability rather than fashion-inducing style.

The polyester fabric has a longer life than traditional cotton keeping it free from wear for more time than the traditional cotton would.  Tilley’s moisture-reducing socks and underwear are available at Tilley’s website or on Amazon at prices starting as low as $17.

These are ideal for business travelers who spend time outside or scurrying through airports or train stations. But, they also double as excellent outdoor accessories for those who like to spend their weekends in nature.
