    Very comfy socks. Love the fact theres no seam over the toes! Make sure theyre all the way pulled up before putting your shoes on otherwise theyll pull down. As long you pull them up prior to putting on shoes they stay in place.

    I bought two pairs of these socks to wear while hiking the Appalachian Trail with my Merrell shoes. I was so glad I did. Not a single blister or any hints of one. They fit perfect, gave great support and kept my feet dry and comfortable. Im a fan and will be purchasing more. Highly recommend!

    There is no way XL size is up to 14.5 US size. At best its 12-13. They also shrink a bot after washing/drying cycle. Buy a bigger size.

    I would bet my husband is the hardest man on his socks ever. I bought him a pair of Darn tough 3 years ago. After near daily use (Long enough to to be washed) for about 8 months he got a hole. I sent them back and received a new pair. Then after a year of near daily use he got a hole again. I sent them back and received a new pair — again! He works construction and is often out of town. He couldnt wash his Darn Tough socks like usual so he bought other socks — two 6 packs. Within 2 months he put holes in every pair from those 6 packs! Happily Weve just ordered our first 6 pack of Darn Tough socks and are thinking these will be the last socks hell ever need to buy! LOVE these socks!

    Ive worn them in 100 degree weather and full humidity in the jungles of africa, on sidewalks in 40 degree weather in the USA without shoes, and with sandals when it is raining instead of pretty much any other kind of shoe (other than rain boots). When it is hot, they wick sweat away and keep your feet cool. When cold, they dont transfer heat from any surface- almost as good as slippers. When wet, they still dont transfer heat and dry on your feet. I wear them every day and they never smell, even when I wash them only every 2 weeks or so. They are soft, super roomy in the toes, cushioned, and dont constrict and leave marks on your ankles. The right color combinations make them appropriate for formal wear as much for hiking- in both cases, severely reduces blisters. I seriously dont understand why people DONT wear these socks. I wear through them usually every 6-8 months and always buy new ones because I want to support this company! BEST SOCKS EVER. (btw... you should NOT put them in the dryer. They will dry on their own in an hour, even quicker if you put them on. You shouldnt wash them after one use either- this is wool and the washer will break down the fibers quicker.)

    This is my daily wear sock and really the only thing I wear with the exception of some other low cut socks for specific shoes. So I buy the black and wear them to walk, hike and with my office pants to work. At the office they are tall enough, unless are wearing “high water” pants no one will even notice you are wearing ankle socks. They are not hot and are breathable. I love them when I travel because the wool content and quality prevent odors so I can pack fewer socks and alternate them over days. As for quality, i have never had to consider their warranty because I have had zero issues with the few pairs I own for a few years now. I did loose one a few months back but that happens with socks.

    I really dig these socks, very comfortable and durable. Enjoy while hiking/camping. All other socks i had can feel grimy after a generous amount of use while these stay comfortable. All while backed with their lifetime warranty amke these a solid purchase

THE ULTIMATE WORK SOCK

MICRO CREW HEIGHT

The micro crew is a shorter, more concise take on the traditional crew height. Peeks just above the top of a standard hiking boot.

ULTIMATE COMFORT

No slipping, no bunching, and no blisters. The ultimate fiber for breathability and comfort in all conditions, the All Weather Performance means cool in the summer, warm in the winter.

CUSHION DENSITY

The Work collection primarily features midweight yarns due to their versatility in all environments and ultimate protection. The entire Work category features cushion underfoot while select styles use terry loops in the leg.

TRUE SEAMLESS

Undetectable seam fusion for an ultra smooth, invisible feel. Darn Tough uses high density knitting techniques, which means there are more stitches per inch. This leads to a more comfortable, durable, great fitting sock with no added bulk.

SUSTAINABILITY

Darn Tough aims to improve the well-being of our community by locally designing and manufacturing the most comfortable, durable, best fitting socks while continuously reducing our environmental impacts.

MATERIALS IN OUR SOCKS

Every material we use in our socks has been carefully chosen and tested to meet our rigorous durability standards. We currently use natural and synthetic fibers, and only 3 types of fiber per sock. As you’d expect, we are actively investigating and testing new fibers and yarn blends that do not appear in our current products. We’ve prioritized Merino wool throughout our product lines and our goal of producing the most responsibly made product is reflected in our commitment to the success of the Responsible Wool Standard.

SOCK CAPITAL OF THE WORLD

We live and work in Northfield, Vermont. Our backyard is the perfect testing ground to make the finest Premium All Weather Performance Socks. We ski, snowboard, hike, bike and run in the most unforgiving climate in the lower 48. It is under these conditions that we design, test and manufacture our socks.

STILL MADE IN VERMONT, USA

After so many decades why do we still knit every pair of our socks here in Vermont? We don’t do it because it’s the easy thing to do—we do it because it’s the right thing to do. We do it because for us, it’s the only way to do it. There are faster and cheaper alternatives but nobody ever outsourced anything for quality.

  • ONE FAMILY - We are family owned. For 40 years we’ve been knitting socks in the Green Mountains
  • ONE MISSION - Darn Tough is a family-owned, American manufacturer of end-use-specific socks.
  • ONE MILL - Every step of the knitting process happens right here, by us, locally, in Northfield, VT
