Feet wearing work socks, the best socks for work boots because they thermoregulate

Thermoregulation for Any Climate, Any Job

The wrong combination of work sock and work boot does not go unnoticed. We produce socks with a high-density knit that make them virtually indestructible, knit with three simple ingredients of Merino Wool, Nylon, and Lycra®, making them the most versatile socks for all environments. Wool has a natural crimp that creates pockets of insulation, while also venting the moisture it absorbs to leave you feeling dry. You stay warm while avoiding sweaty feet and remain cool through natural venting. Wool is amazing.

Reviews

Just great!!

"These socks are very comfortable! My shoe size is a 12 so I wear the extra large and the fit is snug which I love. Not a loose sloppy fit where the socks move around your feet and bunch up. I wear these everyday every where. For daily construction work wearing heavy leather work boots my feet stay comfortably dry. It’s amazing how that works. I never worry about having hot feet in the terrible hot summer!! I’ve replaced all my socks with Darn Tough! The Steely work is another win, a bit heavier but still worth it for the summer heat. Again, amazing!!"

— Tim S. (5/5)

Worth it!

"I have tried other brands but these feel so much better. The delivery was unbelievably fast I think it was next day. I haven’t had them long enough to know about how well they hold up but with an unconditional warranty for life they are definitely worth the price and they must hold up."

— Michael R. (5/5)

I wanted something other than

"I wanted something other than the regular gray or black socks and these definitely fit the bill. I really like the cushion over the shin, but thinner material over the rest of the calf. Not a deal breaker for me, but they are definitely taller than the image would seem to indicate. I am 5'9" with a 30" inseam and a men's size 10 foot, so pretty standard dimensions. I would personally call this cut a full over the calf sock. Not a big deal for me, as I will still get use out of them, but worth being aware of. Beyond that, they are what we expect and appreciate about Darn Tough. Phenomenal blister guard, excellent thermo-regulation and just all around comfortable for the sake of dryer feet."

— Daniel G. (5/5)

Comfortable

"The height of the sock is perfect fits great on my feet the socks are perfect for someone who’s looking to keep their feet cool but also wants a great fitting sock. I actually ordered two pairs. The only downside is that this particular sock does not come in multiple colors."

— Cory L. (5/5)

Superb Comfort and excellent service

"Wore these socks for the first time today at work, and found them to be extremely comfortable. Also I would like to thank Darn Tough for exchanging 2 pairs of socks due to a mistake on my behalf of ordering the wrong size. I will definitely be purchasing more in the future."

— Robby (5/5)

Perfect for work

"Great, lightweight, comfortable socks perfect fit on your feet. The height of the socket is perfect. Covers the calf just enough I would highly recommend."

— Cory L. (5/5)

Awesome

"Socks are awesome. The fit and function in the toes are great and the cushion is amazing."

— Randy P. (5/5)

Great fit with work boots!

"I am really enjoying the comfort these offer with my work boots, particularly the front of my ankle where the boot tongue can be a bit uncomfortable against my ankle, but these are offering great cushion!"

— Daniel G. (5/5)

Great fit and good cushioning

"Great fit and good cushioning where I need it with my work boots!"

— Philip K. (5/5)
