Targeted protection where ticks strike first. Ticks climb. That’s why we designed these Tick Socks to create a physical barrier right where ticks are most likely to latch on: your feet, ankles and lower legs.

Made from ShrugBug’s breathable, lightweight mesh, these over-socks help block ticks from reaching your skin while still allowing airflow and comfort. Wear them alone or pair them with shorts, hiking boots, or ShrugBug pants for added peace of mind during high-tick seasons. No sprays. No chemicals. Just smart, wearable coverage.

Why you’ll love them

• Designed to help block tiny ticks from the tip of your toes to mid-thigh. Blocks most nymph ticks too!
• Breathable, lightweight mesh for airflow and comfort.
• No added insecticides or chemical treatments.
• Wear them over your socks and inside your shoes! Easy to wear with boots, sneakers, or outdoor shoes.
• Wear them as knee socks, above the knee socks, or extend them all the way up to thigh height. At knee height, ticks will have to navigate all the folds to get to the top.
• Ideal for hiking, gardening, yard work, travel, and everyday outdoor wear.
