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.

Darn Tough, that's the stuff

"I have been looking for higher quality socks to complement higher quality footwear. Specifically my new boots. Until darn tough I was wearing standard department store fare. They got soggy, smelly and left fuzz with every wear. Even the "thicker" socks didn't provide the right kind of cushion and insulation needed to break in heavy grain leather. These socks are darn expensive, but very worth it. And they don't need to be washed with every where. These things block odor and are good for two or 3 day wears easily. I can't wait until I can replace my athletic and lifestyle socks with Darn Tough. They have a patron for life."

Favorite socks

"These are my everyday socks that I wear to work. Durability is great and the comfort is fantastic. They feel like new after every wash. Darn tough really does stand by their warranty too. I recommend them to everyone looking for good socks."

— Jared S. (5/5)

Happy Feet

"I purchased these as a gift for my son. These socks are very soft and comfortable! The micro height is perfect. It is obvious the socks are made with love and the knowledge of what a good sock should be!"

— Debbie P. (5/5)

Too short on the ankle

"I bought these to replace my other Vermont tough hiking socks, five pack, I thought these were higher on the ankle and when you wash them, they shrink so they just barely cover the top of a work boot these two last for years and years, but I wish I were taller than the ankle"

Awesome Socks!

"Love these socks, firm fitting and comfortable. Not using too much now in the summer but will certainly be great for this coming fall and winter."

— Ibrahim S. (5/5)

Incredible product and service team

"Darn tough had my tootsies covered for a 70 km hike in Patagonia. They were so comfortable as well as easy to clean and dry. It's unusual not to have some type of foot issue on a mountainous hike, but no problems at all! The staff are equally amazing."

— Chad H. (5/5)

These are the fist sock

"These are the fist sock that didn't just feel like a "normal" pair of socks! They fit better than any other sock I have owned! If anyone doubts there name, I guarantee, if they get just one pair, they won't go back to there old socks that fall apart after only three or four weeks of wearing them. These socks live up to their name!"

— Timothy B. (5/5)

The Socks That Gave Me Hope

"Never thought I’d be sharing this in a review, but here goes: My home got hit with a hurricane in fall of 2024. Trees toppled, damage to our roof, debris everywhere. No electricity for weeks. No water for months. Spotty cell service. Mud everywhere we stepped outdoors. For the first time in my life, I needed work boots. I didn’t order those until I got electricity back. At the same time, I ordered the socks I kept hearing about wherever I was reading about boots. Contractors, especially, swore the best socks were Darn Tough. Well, I thought, let me try those. Because we still did not have running water at home, we could not wash our clothes. At some point, I realized that the socks were outlasting every single article of clothing I was wearing and re-wearing during this time. They didn’t stretch, pill, or stink. Bizarre, but it’s the truth. I had long abandoned the notion that anything I bought and spent good money for would actually give me good service and last forever. Call me crazy, but these socks gave me freaking hope. They still do, two years after the disaster wrecked these mountains where I live. It recently occurred to me that I might actually want to invest in more Darn Tough socks. Hence this recent order. Sorry to blather. But Darn Tough makes you wish every other maker would shut up and learn how to do things right for a change. My new plan: I have two drawers of practically worthless socks. I intend to wear each one last time, then pitch ’em and replace them with the socks from Vermont that brought hope back in my life. They did not let me down when I needed them, and never will."

So comfortable

"I just to wear synthetic hiking socks in the summer but these merino wool socks have changed my mind. They are so comfortable even when my feet get wet. I’m sold, thanks Darn Tough!"

— Chris L. (5/5)
