This could just be your kid’s favorite sock. Which is great, because the Merino Wool knit is meant to last for … well, life. This kids’ hike sock runs a light profile and has a little extra cushion running above the achilles for all-day comfort. At some point you might as well overlook that they’re outside without shoes on.

Height: Micro Crew
Weight: Lightweight
Pair with: Hiking shoes, hiking boots, sneakers
Style Number: 3023
  • Kids' micro crew socks average 6 in. from heel to cuff - expect them to show about 4 in. above a low hiking shoe or just above a youth hiking boot.
  • A performance fit means no slipping, no bunching, no blisters for peak hiking comfort.
  • Merino Wool is at home on the trail, naturally moving moisture to keep feet fresh and dry in all weather.
  • Lightweight socks breathe naturally and deliver flexible, all-day comfort for summer hiking.
  • 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.

Reviews

I love the fun bright

"I love the fun bright colors, in addition to the weight and quality of the socks. I have found the kid's large to be comparable in size fit to a woman's small, so I've expanded my shopping options accordingly. Thank you and keep up the great work. Darn Tough folks!"

— Sara H. (5/5)

Great fitting comfortable socks for kids!

"Excellent fit, style and comfort. My kids love these. They are their new favorite socks. An added bonus is that they don't wear out like all of their cotton socks do!"

— Chad W. (5/5)

Great for kids who get a lot of holes!

"I got these for my 7 year old son because he’s constantly getting holes in his socks. I love that these have a warranty so if it happens we’ll be taken care of! He usually wears a size 3 or 4 in kids so I got him a size large. He really likes these socks so I plan to get him another pair!"

— Katie P. (5/5)

"These are great socks very comfortable warm but thin. Some of the best socks I have ever owned"

Kid's socks fit my women's size 7 feet perfectly!!

"I am wearing these socks right now. I love that I fit kids' socks (better fit than adult sizes for my size 7 feet). The colors are perfect, the weight is warm but not bulky, and I have bought several pairs in the past - they hold up in the washer."

— Nancy M. (5/5)
