  • Men's 1/4 socks average 5.5 in. from heel to cuff - expect them to show about 3 in. above a low hiking shoe.
  • A performance fit means no slipping, no bunching, no blisters for peak hiking comfort.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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

It's a winner!

"I am a happy customer. Since discovering Darn Tough socks, I haven't bought socks anywhere else. Why would I? The lightweight are appropriate for work, the designs are fun, and the heavy weight are great for winter. We are active both on the trails and at the gym, and since switching to Darn Tough, my socks last for more than just a season or two. No holes, no blisters, and so comfortable. I am now working to stock my husband with socks. He is very happy with these."

— Mycala K. (5/5)

Toughest long lasting socks I've ever worn

"The hiker quarter cushions are my go-to socks 7 days a week for years now for all my outdoor activities, casual, and even business casual dress. I have a range of colors that work with everything I own. Nothing is as comfortable and long lasting. I buy multiples of the same color for easy sorting and pairing, and tossing in the sock drawer."

— Ray O. (5/5)

Cushy and comfy!

"These socks are perfect for above the ankle wear. There’s no need to try to pull them up further. They stay where they belong. I wear them all the time for my outdoor activities. They are perfectly cushy and comfy!"
