> 3 dayFirst, the Amazon Size Chart button opens a window with Chest, Waist, and Arm Measurement information. If you ignore that and look at the product image that lists a SIZE CHART, youll find that XL is for US sizes 12.5 to 14.5. For someone who buys size US 12 shoes, these XL socks are too small. The length is fine but the ankle-to-heel bend is nowhere near big enough. Its almost as if they forgot to design the sock to make a 90 degree turn at the heel. I cannot recommend this product because if I go a size up to XXL, then the length is too long and there is no guarantee the ankle-to-heel will wider.

> 3 dayTheir lifetime warranty is great, but requires you to send the worn socks back in. For me, that amounted to another $6 charge for postage to get them replaced. I love the socks, but the initial cost plus the cost of sending damaged ones back makes them too pricey for my wallet

> 3 dayNot the best work or hiking socks. Especially for the money. Build quality is mediocre. Theyre loose out of the box, despite being my size. It only gets worse with sweat as the day goes on. They also make my boots extremely uncomfortable. Which is important because Im in these things running around (literally) or 10 or more miles every day. My smart wools are infinitely better than these. I regret buying them.

10-06-2025I 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!

> 3 dayIve been wearing these socks since I bought a pair for hiking a year ago. Im on my feet all day long and after experiencing the comfort I bought 7 pair total. Cotton has no place in my sock drawer any more.
