Darn Tough Mens Number 2 Micro Crew Cushion

Love the sox ordered 3 pair rec 2 pair want the third one as I paid for it

Awesome product! The socks feel great when I go hiking and just wear around the house. Super comfortable and warm!

They keep my feet very warm.

So, what I love about these socks is the height and the elastic tops, unlike brands like smart wool that can be painful if you have big calves. The lack of seams is FANTASTIC! Though despite the no bunching claim, they definitely will. What I don’t really like is where the cushioning is, or rather where it’s not. I’m not even remotely convinced that if it’s hot outside the thinner material at the top of a sock will keep your feet cool. It’s still crammed into and touching the top of your shoe/boot keeping it hot. If you’re going to do it though, it needs to come at least as far back as the last “knuckle” on your feet. Any bending point in the foot that’s going to contact your boot/shoe should be cushioned. They’re great quality, and I want to like them more, but it’s… almost perfect. I’d love to give a micro crew full cushion sock a try… but they don’t seem to make one that doesn’t jump to the extra cushion heavyweight category. Don’t get me wrong, that I want to try for winter, but doesn’t sound too pleasant for summer. These are probably perfect for casual wear in shoes, but not so much for hiking in boots, imho. Having worn them a bit more I had to take away a star… ok so these are $27 socks… they should be monumentally better than $2 socks… but they’re not. And my other huge complaint is the inconsistency between pairs. I have one pair with decent toe cushioning and terrible heel cushioning, and another pair where it’s the opposite problem. I don’t know if the socks they couldn’t sell end up on Amazon or not, but for $27/pair I’m not impressed at all. They got so much right compared to smart wool, but so much wrong too. I’m willing to give a pair of the full cushion socks a try before giving up on darn tough as a whole.

Best socks to own

super comfy, good quality

This sock is well made. The wool blend is not the best in warm climates or summer hiking but great for normal outdoor activity the rest of the year.

Had a hiccup in delivery, my fault things were worked out, super customer service. Excellent socks I will be a return customer.

See in my other reviews on darn tough my explanation on this socks

I own a good amount of Darn Tough socks. I run regularly and now only run in Darn Tough socks (the ones on the top in the photo). I prefer the cushion socks for running. I absolutely love wearing the thicker Darn Tough socks for hiking and simply for everyday use. They keep my feet warm in the cold and cool when it is hot out. Darn Tough socks are extremely comfortable. They are made in Vermont and I like that I am supporting an American company. The people In Vermont know how to make the best socks in the world. I’m impressed with the high quality of these socks. The socks have a lifetime guarantee. I haven’t had to return any for that guarantee, but it’s good to know that Darn Tough socks stands by their guarantee for life policy. I highly recommend buying Darn Tough socks!!! Sincerely, An extremely satisfied and loyal customer
