When the temperature drops at camp, a pair of Choonies is the difference between restless feet and a solid night’s sleep.

Liteway says: 

Renewed more light synthetic socks for sleeping – CHOONIE

Renewed version, now made from 10D Nylon DWR Ripstop. More thinner – more lighter!

Warm your feet with insulation produced in the USA: Climashield Apex. Climashield® APEX reaches new heights in combinations of weight and thermal efficiency., this innovative insulation is the lightest weight and most thermally efficient continuous filament insulation on the market today. Due to its unique continuous filament construction – no matter how many times the garment is stretched, compressed or washed Climashield APEX is resilient under harsh conditions, holding its original shape after multiple uses or launderings. With technology AquaBan® – this technology ensures warmth in wet and humid conditions. It does not absorb moisture, because each fiber is coated with acrylic.

The Choonie can be worn over barefoot or use as an additional layer on top of socks. Making it a perfect addition to quilts.

Comparing to the previous model, the number of seams was reduced (completely absent in the foot area). That means that socks are even warmer at the same weight.

Meet dawns and see the sunsets in the mountains will be even warmer.

Our Verdict

The Liteway Choonie Apex (+4°C rated) has become an essential part of my sleep kit. At just 85g for the Mediums, they pack as small as a thick pair of socks but deliver unparalleled comfort. The Climashield Apex insulation traps warmth well and dries quickly if things get damp.

The footbox has no seams, which helps cut down on cold spots, and the updated cut fits more naturally than older models. The 10D nylon outer feels a bit delicate, but that’s the trade-off for keeping weight down. The ankle drawcord is basic but works well enough to keep warmth in.
