> 3 dayI work in construction and put my Darn tough socks through their paces. The photos are one sock from each pair, after one wear in a brand new pair of boots. $19 a pair and they’re absolute trash. I’m not sure if the wholesaler bought a bad batch and is trying to sell them off, or if Darn Tough isn’t what it used to be. Either way, inspect your socks very carefully! This is unacceptable quality for any product but especially at this price

> 3 dayThe size of these socks is really weird. My shoe size is men 9, so I bought the socks in medium (shoe size 8 - 9.5). The heel of the sock is way too high, not over my heel but about 3-4 inches higher, over my Achilles tendon area. This incorrect position of the socks heel leads to the sock bulging and being uncomfortable when the bulge rubs between my shoe and my skin. Also, the quality isnt worth the $18 price. I found several loose threads. This is something Id be okay with in a regular, cheap sock, but not at this price level. Overall, Ive owned a number of expensive hiking socks before, and these are the worst so far. Look elsewhere.

> 3 dayWore these for the first time will hiking around Moab Utah for seven days last week. They worked great. During one stretch, I had to wear the same pair for 3 days straight and they held up fine. FYI: I wear a mens size 10US shoe and LARGE in these socks fit well.

|---|---|---|---|
MICRO CREW HEIGHTThe micro crew is a shorter, more concise take on the traditional crew height. Peeks just above the top of a standard hiking boot. |
ULTIMATE COMFORTNo 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 DENSITYThe 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 SEAMLESSUndetectable 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. |

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
