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

I decided to try out

"I decided to try out a pair of these socks for my work boots, best choice I ever made. These things feel like a nice pillow with cushion and have kept my feet. Well protected in my work boots. They don’t squeeze too tight, there’s plenty of room in the toolbox where my feet don’t feel like they’re cramped in my work boots. I work in extremely hot weather and I’ve been able to avoid having overly saturated skin. It’s been great to have a nice balance with this sock. The cushion is just right. It’s not too tight going up my legs. They are absolutely amazing. Thank you, Darn tough."

— Jory B. (5/5)

Very pleased at the way

"Very pleased at the way my feet felt after a long day at work compared to the common HD cotton sock. Will be recommending as well as buying more. Liked the many styles available for men and women. Buying a pair for my wife as well for this upcoming Mother's Day."

— Woodrow H. (5/5)

I was hesitant about wool

"I was hesitant about wool socks bc of the price mostly but finally bought 2 pairs about a month ago. Today I have 12 pairs different pairs and 4 more on the way. Game changer socks for moisture and comfort. I now have many different options for lenght and cushion thickness for ALL my footwear ie. Tall winter boots, 6inch work boots, shoes, sandals, slippers etc. . . thank you DT! USA!!"

— Justin K. (5/5)

Great sock, but size issues

"I have purchased and worn at least 8 pairs of Darn Tough socks over the past 5 years. They have never let me down. I have always bought size L, and they were perfect (I am size 10). But these socks are too big. To the point they constantly bunch up around the heel, so I can’t wear them. I have a hard time rating the socks poorly, they are simply bigger than all the other size L socks I have from Darn Tough."

— Andrew R. (5/5)

Great for outdoor maintenance jobs.

"I wish I had ordered more of these. I usually only get the hiking version, but the work features work SO WELL for these with the yard work and other maintenance stuff I have to do at my job."

— William H. (5/5)

The best socks that i've

"The best socks that i've ever owned, hands - or feet- down. It's hard to imagine getting this excited over socks but here we are. work boots, steel toes, everything is more comfortable with these socks. they stay up so i'm not constantly having to adjust and the elastaticity maintains througout the life. sure, $30 is a lot for a pair of socks but this level of comfort doesn't come cheap. invest in yourself."

— Perry f. (5/5)

The only work socks you'll ever need!

"This sock blows away the competition in comparison to other merino wool socks! I am an Appalachian Trail through hiker and currently use this sock in my daily grind as a Fuel Transport Refinery driver. My feet are alway dry in my solid leather pull up boots and never cold. And trust me, im outside all winter in Minnesota at -20 degrees! I can keep my feet tolerable in steel toe boots! I've recommend so many people to switch from Smartwool to DARN TOUGH! You guys are my only all year round sock snd my family of 5 also! Happy Sock Wearing, Steve The Daredevil, Indiana"
