  • Men's micro crew socks average 8.5 in. from heel to cuff - expect them to show about 6 in. above a low hiking shoe or just above a standard 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.
  • Our all-season weight, midweight socks thermoregulate to wrap feet in steady comfort when temperatures change.
  • Our 1466 is one iconic sock. We've made improvements along the way, because that's what we do, but you can't argue with a classic.
  • 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 using the highest quality yarns, sourced from around the globe.
  • 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

Best Socks in my dresser!

"These are the most comfortable socks I’ve ever owned! I wear a size 11.5 or 12 shoe depending on the brand. I got the large men’s hiker midweight. The size and cushion are just right. Darn Tough socks are more expensive than a pack of crew socks from a big box store. But I think I’m going to have to gradually replace all of my cotton socks with Darn Tough merino wool socks. They really are THAT good!"

— Kent B. (5/5)

High Quality Socks

"Very well made sock. They are comfortable and appear to be made for the long haul. Great workmanship. These socks are well above the average sock, but I still expected more cushion. I have since ordered some that are promoted as "full cushion". These are a quality US made product and the lifetime warranty is great."

— Gary J. (4/5)

Da Best Socks

"Wether its long work days on my feet or high peaks hikes I know I can count on these socks to have my back....or feet I guess. I have yet to find socks that are more comfortable than these and have a few pairs of different styles. Big fan of the cushioned ones. True to weight, light is great for hot days, mid for those in between seasons, and heavy for the cold. True to size as well. Works in sneakers and boots and no footwear. Literally zero complaints."

— Jon F. (5/5)

Unfortunately I will never go

"Unfortunately I will never go back to normal socks. First experience with socks like this and they're incredible. The odor resistance is no joke and they are crazy thick in the best way possible. The fit was great for my size 11 in shoes usually. The targeted cushion was definitely a plus I didn't know was necessary. The wool makes for a fast drying experience as well."

— Zabdiel R. (5/5)

Comfortable and durable.

"All day comfort. No signs of stretching out. The midweight is a good all around sock and perfect for hiking, beginner or expert. I do prefer the light weight in the summer, but for the rest of the year, this is my go-to. Temps between 30-90 degrees F are comfortable."

— Jared J. (5/5)

Best sock available for hiking and backpacking

"If you aren't already familiar with Darn Tough socks, it's time to get familiar. Unbeatable hiking sock. Darn Tough also replaces them when they wear out from normal use in perpetuity. Expensive up front, but they are long lasting, free to replace, and don't need liners."

— Alex H. (5/5)

I have had six pairs

"I have had six pairs of these socks. Very pleased how they feel and easily put on. They wear great, have had some holes come on, Darn Tough replaced those, no problems. I wear these socks hiking and doing landscape work. I put them through some work. They are great socks, if you haven’t tried them, do so."

— Lawrence W. (5/5)

Amazingly Beyond Expectations

"Hiking socks but they can truly do it all. I use them for hiking, running (upwards of 20 miles), school, work, you name it. Wore them to the absolute mudfest that was Austin City Limits weekend one this year and they kept my feet totally dry which was a huge but welcome surprise. Could not recommend these enough because they are certainly worth the hype they recieve. The merino wool is totally worth it!"

— Zabdiel R. (5/5)

The best

"Darn tough makes the best socks, i have several pairs that are almost 20 years old and look fine. They really will replace a pair if you get a hole, it's difficult to recommend a different sock company."

— Tico G. (5/5)

Great Well Made Socks

"Great colors and great fit. Perfect for exercising and wearing at home. Great cushion, looks great, and feels great. Very well made socks."

— Richard G. (5/5)
