> 3 dayIve 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.)

> 3 dayOwn several pairs, and they hold up better than any sock Ive owned, while being more comfortable than any other sock. They also do not get smelly even by the time they make it to the wash.... let them air dry. Worth their price.

> 3 dayI wash these in the sink at work each morning along with thin briefs. The wool content makes them very tough and ready to dry on a concealed hanging bar under my shop floor desk. That’s all the laundry I do since I also buy $3 t-shirts in bulk packs here, and just tie them away each morning. That streamlined my laundry tasks for the whole year as I lived out of small rooms near work where weekly laundry tasks stole a whole evening a week. It’s a pleasure to wring out the last drops from such sturdy socks. Yes, if my toenail isn’t kept short I scrape a hole in them in my boots, so now I’m careful about that too.

> 3 dayBest sock out there. Too expensive for a sock, in my personal opinion.

Verified Buyer
> 3 dayIts a good pair of socks but VERY overpriced. If you can use the warranty to send back torn ones and get a few replacement out of it, then its worth it. Otherwise NO socks are worth $25 a pair. None. Nothing. These sure arent anything special except the warranty.

> 3 dayI have other darn tough socks and the trick is to order neutral colors for everyday use, these are good!

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
