Reviews

Socks as advertised. Good in warm weather.

"High quality, comfort was noticeable. Actually felt for the first time that I've ever worn a pair of shoes that I wasn't actually wearing a pair of shoes. The socks were not overly hot in the heatwave that we've been having and assisted in the fit of the boots on my feet. Very much worth the price. Anyone who tells me that $25 is too much for one pair of socks obviously hasn't worn merino wool."

— Brandon M. (5/5)

Great Socks

"My new socks from DT are so comfortable! The fabric feels soft on my feet and keeps them at just the right temperature. So, my feet are comfortable outdoors on a summer day and also indoors in an air conditioned room. My toes are not cramped and I can flex them. These are great socks!"

— Dwight J. (5/5)

Best socks ever

"Got these as my replacment for my warranty claim. And just like the pair I sent in they are amazing. I wear darn tough socks all year round for work, home, and everyday wear. Keep my feet warm in winter and breathable in summer. I've got them wet while hunting and dunked my boots in water and once I got back from my stand I kicked my boots off and I could barley tell my feet were wet in the cold because of how well they insulated. The cushion makes them perfect for my work in a scrap yard wearing boots and on my feet all day. And the durability is outstanding. One pair typically lasts me 2-4 years. I will only ever buy and recommend darn tough socks."

— Joseph H. (5/5)

Perfect Extreme Work Sock

"I’m a roofer in Texas’ hot environment. It’s hot, it’s sweaty, it’s tough conditions all the way around. These socks fit like an athletic sock which has been perfect for my needs. They are thick (but not too hot even for the Texas Summer) so the comfort is amazing year round. The height is just right and the sock stays in place even with all the extreme angles of roofing which was a major concern. Bottom line, these Darn Toughs are perfect for me."

— Isaac S. (5/5)

Full cushion is nice. Very

"Full cushion is nice. Very breathable work 8 to 10 hours on my feet a day in a warehouse and I live in a hot climate and my feet are never sweaty very breathable"

New Tactical Socks

"This is the first try of a new sock, I wear these at work on a concrete floor. The cushion is amazing!"

— Brenda H. (5/5)

So far so good, I

"So far so good, I just should of bought a bigger size , I'm used to socks being a bit higher but not the socks fault"

— Jaime C. (5/5)

Great socks

"I work in a warehouse, and on my feet for 8+ hours a day. Wearing my cushioned mid weight tactical socks while working a big difference every day. So glad that I have a number of pairs."

— Kevin G. (5/5)

Not for me. . .

"I don't feel these socks are as comfortable as the midweight socks; they feel more "artificial" than the hiking socks. These socks also developed holes in the toes as fast (or even faster) than the midweight hiking socks."

— Geoff A. (2/5)

Wearing it proudly

"Well constructed sock and a nice weight for most activities"

— Ed S. (5/5)
