  • Men's micro crew socks average 8.5 in. from heel to cuff - expect them to show about 6 in. above a low hiking shoe or just above a standard hiking boot.
  • A performance fit means no slipping, no bunching, no blisters for peak hiking comfort.
  • Synthetic COOLMAX® yarns are vegan and help feet beat the heat and stay dry while hiking.
  • Midweight Coolmax® socks actively move moisture to keep feet in their comfort zone on the trail. Vegan friendly.
  • Reinforced Achilles cushion improves the comfort of our socks and helps them last longer.
  • We close every toe seam using our True Seamless™ Toe technology for an ultra smooth, undetectable feel.
  • The “still” in Still Made in Vermont, USA is personal. We knit all our socks at our VT-based Mills - we can't imagine it any other way.
  • Unconditionally Guaranteed for Life - if these aren’t the longest lasting socks you’ve ever owned, return them for another pair.

Unrivaled Durability

We make one thing, and we make it better than anyone else – ask any thru hiker and you will likely hear the same. In order to unconditionally guarantee a hiking sock for life, it must be durable. It must maintain its comfort, and it has to fit for miles upon miles on-trail. The socks that do return through warranty inform how we can improve. And we do. Our guarantee is a promise to you, but it’s a standard for us. We have yet to produce our best sock, but we get better with every step.

Great socks

"These are the best socks i have ever worn. They are comfortable, wear well, and actually kept my feet warm when my walking shoes got soaked back in February while helping put out my daughter's neighbors house fire. The fire department soaked the ground and i stepped into the runoff and got my feet soaked. It was a good hour before i was able to change out of my soaked shoes/socks. My feet stayed warm through out. Never had that happen before even when cross country skiing with two layers of socks, including a pair of “thermal” ones. I received my first pair as a gift and have purchased two more pair and am looking forward to rounding out my collection to cover the entire week. I try to walk five miles a day for exercise and these are great fitting in my walking shoes."

Great sock

"CoolMax is where it's at. This is my second pair of these socks. Darn Tough really does have forever warranty. I wish these came in compression, but we can't have everything. I'm a size 11. 5 ordered a Large."

Brian S. (5/5)

Best socks!

"We love these socks! My son has ASD and he skips and paces as a stim which wears through regular socks in like 3 days. These socks last a long time and are comfortable and awesome!"

Kathleen K. (5/5)

Best socks I’ve ever wore!

"A top quality sock made right here in the US. With a variety of colors, tough durability, and a blend of materials that keep your feet warm and dry. Guaranteed for life, how can you not want to own several pairs of these! I do! I highly recommend these socks to anyone who is looking for a comfortable fit for just about any activity."

David C. (5/5)

Disappointed

"I am a little disappointed. I thought all your socks were Merino wool. I must admit these are comfortable, but I will read the description of the fiber next time."

Michael W. (4/5)

They're as great as advertised

"Comfortable and obviously high quality. I wear a size 12 shoe and I got the XL even though it's billed as for 12. 5 through 14. 5 and it fits me well."

Marcus M. (5/5)

Top Drawer

"Everything about Darn Tough is top drawer: website's user-friendliness, really fast shipping, designs and quality of socks, lifetime guarantee, and the good people who made it all possible. More designs for synthetic socks will really be appreciated. Thank you very much."

Cihong C. (5/5)

Evan W. (5/5)

Socks that last (even for teenage boys)

"These socks stand up to being worn everywhere, all day by outdoor active teen boys. Love the weight, durable blend and lifetime guarantee. They are just SO durable!"

Logan G. (5/5)

Great socks!

"I've had coolmax socks for the last 10 years. I live in California so it's always hot. These always leave my feet feeling better than any cotton sock could. I'm so happy with there warranty and the way they back there brand. Never stop being darn tough! Thanks again"

Q&A

Which socks are best for constant “4-6 days”of rain on trail ? I’ve heard two pair of thin nylon socks. What is your opinion. There’s no right answer just FYI.
Hi Ron! We've reached out to you directly via email to provide some recommendations!
My husband is a power journeyman Lineman currently in southern California with extreme heat. He often works 16hr days in the direct sun and heat. I am looking for a sock with main purpose of keeping feet dry, slipping and staying up while working. In addition to something to prevent the sweating and smell! Would this be an appropriate sock or is there a better one to try?
Hi Jennifer! While our Coolmax Hiker Micro Crew Midweight Hiking sock is great, you might check out our Work sock line up for your husband! They're made with merino wool for thermoregulation, moisture wicking, and odor resistance. They also feature mesh windows on the top of the foot to help vent sweat! You can check those out here -- https://darntough.com/collections/mens-work-socks -- and look at the Fred Tuttle for a good alternative for the Coolmax Hiker Micro Crew. : )
Hello, Do you offer totally all white socks (NO RAINBOWS) for men XL
Hi Rob, while we don't offer many all-white socks at the micro crew/crew height - you might check out the Men's Element Crew Sock -- https://darntough.com/collections/mens-athletic-socks/products/mens-merino-wool-element-crew-lightweight-athletic-socks -- they feature minimal striping on the white colorway! If you need any further assistance, please don't hesitate to contact us. Darn Tough Vermont Support Team 877-327-6883 support@darntough.com
