Blister-Free Running

Beyond the moisture-wicking our running socks swear to, their fit is equally key. With a truly seamless wrap around your foot, they fit well and work well with any running shoe – trail or road. Depending on your style or desired features, we have heights ranging from no-shows and quarters to micro crews and over-the-calf run socks. All are knit with our ultra-lightweight yarn, while some styles have cushion for added protection and comfort. The best fit you’ve ever worn, accompanied with Merino’s performance, leads to incredible comfort that will leave you blister-free.

Reviews

Sock return and fantastic customer service.

"Darn Tough is not only a fantastic product ( the only socks I wear for a multitude of activities), they are also a great company. On my last order, I received the 5 pairs of socks. 3 of the 5 were the wrong size. A quick phone call and the associate was extremely helpful. They sent the correct sizes out immediately and allowed me to keep the other sized socks to donate. They are the only socks I will buy and wear. Thanks!!!"

— Edward E. (5/5)

another awesome sock from DT

"once again, an awesome sock from Darn Tough, these socks are so comfortable, fit perfect, and look awesome. it stood up to an 8-mile hike, my feet felt great. That's why I have over 20 pair of Darn Tough socks. Thank you guys. They/you are the best."

— Christopher C. (5/5)

The Name Says it All

"Darn Tough socks have your back. Well, more like your feet, but the point stands. These socks are the most durable running, hiking, chainsawing, skiing, cow-herding, socks you'll lay your hands (and feet!) on. If you like to do it all, Darn Tough is for you!"

— Mead B. (5/5)

Awesome sock, color not the most functional color

"I've used these socks on about 1500 miles of backpacking and fastpacking and then used them for a 100 mile ultra. They've held up well. Can't complain. Balegas, Dry Max, Fits, Smartwool, Injinjis, Bombas - these Darn Toughs are just the best for my feet, shoe choice, and activities. I live out west in an arid area but you're going to have river crossings, it's going to rain, etc. I wear these with trail runners and really appreciate how quickly they dry. I feel like the trail socks are nice "around towners" but these are what I slap on when the forecast is cloudy with a chance of pain. What I can and will complain about is that they can easily get lost when you're camping because of the olive color, especially if you're doing things like washing them in creeks and/or hanging them on vegetation to dry. And stuff gets tossed around and lost at aid stations, especially if you're changing your socks in the middle of the night. I'm a dirtbag who loves function and if you could see them from space that would be helpful to me."

— Hermit S. (4/5)

Great

"I wore it at a 50k trail running race at very tough terrain. A lot small stone and sand went into my shoes and I thought for sure I would have some problem with my toes. But in the end everything was fine (I was very surprised), and I would say the socks definitely helped."

— Xiaodong D. (5/5)

30+ miles

"I wore these socks for a 30+ mile walking trip. I packed a second pair of socks, figuring that by the halfway point I'd want to change them out to stay fresh. I completely forgot, and my feet didn't remind me. It wasn't until I was in the last mile or so that I even remembered I still had the second pair with me. My legs were on fire by then, but my feet had no blisters, no hotspots, nothing."

— Manny s. (5/5)

New socks

"Just wore them once but they replaced a well worn lightweight pair. They are cozy and looking forward to putting them into rotation when I start wearing long pants again. I really like the design but I have to remember to keep the sun on the outside."

— David P. (5/5)

There aren't any socks as good as these!

"I love these socks! There truly aren't any socks as good as Darn Tough socks."

— Bruce M. (5/5)

Amazing

"I have bought the custioned work socks and love them these are like not having any socks so light and love them for just normal wear."

— Adam S. (5/5)

When I want pure comfort

"When I want pure comfort I wear Darn Tough brand socks!!!"
