Socks for Running
Taking a spill at mile 20 is tough. But our run socks are tougher. So, even if you do take a tumble, our socks will still take you the distance.
Run Features
A. Even More Durable
Informed by our customer data, we made our Run socks even tougher. Enhanced durability for long outings, Crossfit workouts, and rocky ultra runs.
B. Breathable Mesh
Moisture-wicking Merino Wool prevents blisters and thwarts hotspots before they surface, keeping your feet dry and comfortable.
C. Lightweight
The lightweight knit of our running socks is simply unparalleled. Very sleek. Soft to the touch yet form fitting.
D. Cushion Comfort
The right amount of light cushion for extra protection on race day. Thicker socks have added durability for impact comfort on rugged trails.
Choose by Cushion
No Cushion Socks
Ultralight running socks for summer with no cushion help you feel the ground with every foot strike. Thermoregulating and breathable, no cushioning helps you run naturally in hot weather.
Cushion Socks
Cushioned socks are designed with a low profile, adding a bit of extra cushioning for added durability. Hidden comfort and a softer touch make cushioning a staple feature for trail running.
Choose by Height
No Show Tab Socks
Definitely a study in less-is-more when more miles are certain. The No Show Tab running socks are our lightest creation, with a cushion tab to protect the Achilles in road running shoes.
¼ Socks
Ankle height, quarter length socks sit perfectly still as you dip between the roads and running up trail – the only ankle sock of its kind that can power through tough terrain without slipping.
Micro Crew Socks
Pull them up once and you’re set for miles. The Micro Crew is a worthy running partner that offers lower-leg protection, durability, and yet-to-be-surpassed style for serious runners.
Choose by Weight
Ultra-Lightweight Socks
Ultra-lightweight, breathable, and knit to fit like a second skin, these are some of the lightest socks we make and undoubtedly the best running socks for hot weather and long runs.
Lightweight Socks
Ideal for cooler temperatures, our Lightweight athletic knits are the best pair of running socks for cold weather, staying put for miles without ever weighing or slowing you down.
The Mirna Factor
Of course, we like that Mirna Valerio is a Vermonter. But we also love that Mirna has the guts to prove people wrong. Nothing holds her back from crushing big miles — after all, she is Darn Tough. Ultra-runner, mother, and now sock-designer, Mirna's new signature sock The Mirnavated isn't just breaking PRs — it's inspiring them.
“Darn Tough’s running socks are incredible.” – Mirna
Perfect Temperature
What keeps things warm and keeps things cool is not wildly different – like a thermos. Merino Wool fibers are naturally crimped. That tiny space, combined with an intense ability to wick moisture, keep your feet at an ideal temp, and dry, regardless if you’re running in cold or hot weather. If Merino Wool isn't for you, we also knit socks using synthetic materials — like Coolmax®.
“In the summertime it feels counterintuitive to want to wear wool socks, but since wool helps with thermoregulation, they actually keep your feet at a perfect temperature, even if they get wet!” – Mirna
Signature Durability
Our socks excel at this. Even still, armed with warranty data from our LIFETIME GUARANTEE and runner input, we added reinforcement up the Achilles for extra durability. They’re the best socks for marathon runners and your ideal partner for Sunday long runs and long-distance ultras.
“They are extremely well made and last a long time. They are cute and they make your feet look CLUTCH. And they are made by my local Vermont sock family. What's not to love?” – Mirna
Fitting Results — No Blisters
For those who’ve heard the phrase Darn Tight, don’t confuse that with what we call a performance fit – a continual, unrelenting fit with arch support. Reduced sweat, proper temp, and a sleek fit are the equation for a good pair of anti-blister running socks without seams.
“They are technical wool, which is very important to guard against blisters, and to help with heat regulation and cooling. They are appropriately compressive where they need to be, and cushioned where they need to be.” – Mirna
