Men's Stanley K Mid-Calf Lightweight Work Sock-Last Chance

This Sock Is No Longer Available. Discontinued 2024.

A lightweight work sock, designed to fit best with rubber boots, was on our list for several seasons - but it wasn't until we started working with Alaska's Salmon Sisters, their family and crews, that we had a stacked deck to work with. Pulling long stretches on their commercial fishing boats, the cushion underfoot gave welcome relief, while mesh windows on the foot and leg helped everything breathe. Features an extended protective toe box for impact protection, and our durable, performance fit eliminates the soul-crushing sock slip in a tall boot. We couldn't ask for better testing, they said they couldn't ask for a better sock.

Machine wash in cold water on gentle cycle with socks inside-out. Do not bleach. Tumble dry on low or hang dry. Do not dry clean. You can learn more about how to wash merino wool socks here.

Reviews

G. O. A. T. level socks!

"These are the best socks I've ever owned! They are comfortable and fit perfectly. They keep my feet dry and odor free. I'm usually in work boots for twelve hours a day and with normal cotton socks, my feet would be sweaty and stinky. Not anymore. Well worth the price and it's awesome that Darn Tough has a lifetime guarantee. I'm a customer for life."

— Brad B. (5/5)

Decent

"Good sock but the person I gifted to wanted boot socks."

— Marilyn J. (4/5)

My new western boot socks!

"I’m used to having to use really thin ( and often cheap) socks when using my (very close fitting) western boots. Tried this line to see how they may fit. WOW! More than impressed. I was particularly skeptical with them having cushioning ( usually can’t have that with my boots … or at least that WAS the case until now!). My feet have never felt this good when I’m bootin’! They ride high enough and stay put also, where with my previous socks I had to periodically pull them back up during the day. Very little pressure impressions on my upper calf’s at the end of the day also."

— Anthony B. (5/5)

Outstanding sock

"I sweat like a horse and my work boots are dried daily on a boot dryer. I walk on 220-300 degree asphalt all day. These socks somehow displace the heat very well. I would recommend these socks to heavy sweaters. Last but not least, made in the USA. That is something that is very important to our family."

— Jon D. (5/5)

Great sock. Nice cushion, comfy

"Great sock. Nice cushion, comfy fit and the perfect length. Will surely purchase another pair."

— Christopher C. (5/5)

My new favorite!

"Love these socks! They are my faborite summer work socks. The best of both worlds, mid weight cushion and light weight upper. Love the mid calf, just the right height and they stay up."

— JUSTIN W. (5/5)

Best feeling highest quality sock

"Best feeling highest quality sock out there! The all day comfort from the added cushioning is night and day difference from any other sock and I've tried them all. 10/10 I tell everybody I know to invest in a higher sock game"

— Joel H. (5/5)

Great product for work

"Great cushion while not hot/still breathable. At the beginning they were pretty tight in width but have been worn in great."

— Noah P. (5/5)

Just go ahead and order

"Just go ahead and order "just one pair", you know you want to."

— Matt F. (5/5)

Extremely comfortable with no slouching

"Extremely comfortable, especially with my 8 inch moc toes. What is impressive is they do not slouch at all during the day. The soft cushioning is just as comfortable as all of my Darn Tough socks. I consider these socks an investment for my feet."

— Howard J. (5/5)

Q&A

My grandson is pursuing training to become a firefighter. He will also be an EMT. He lives in Iowa. What sock do you recommend?
The Men's Stanley K Mid-Calf Lightweight Work Sock is an excellent option for his line of work! This style is super breathable and has fantastic cushioning if he is always on his feet. The mid-calf height is versatile to accommodate any type of footwear. I also recommend our Men's Tactical Socks with cushioning as other great options to try!
