Model wearing the women's blossom crew lifestyle sock in seafoam

All-Day Merino Wool Comfort

To say we knit with the finest yarns is both a statement of quality and comfort. Merino Wool yarn is indeed a fine yarn – thin, silky, nothing like rag wool. For our more casual socks and dress socks, we knit using our thinnest Merino with a watchful eye over a performance fit. This means our lifestyle socks are sublimely smooth and wrap your foot, truly seamlessly, without bunching or slipping. Add wool’s ability to stay dry, resist odor, and regulate temperature, and you have all-day comfort. At least.

Reviews

Only Darn Tough for me

"I won’t wear anything but Darn Tough socks anymore. I prefer the cushioning of hike socks and these are thinner. But great for casual summer wear. I love the micro crews and have several pairs. These are a color I was missing and I like them. The dots are cute too."

— Mary C. (5/5)

excellent quality and fun style

"Comfortable and very cute style, excellent quality as usual from Darn Tough. Thank you for creating this style and hope you create more like it with cushioning please."

— lydia k. (5/5)

Cute!

"These socks are so cute and fit just right. They are the same top-quality socks I've come to love from Darn Tough. Love em!"

— Sheila T. (5/5)

So o o o cute!!!!

"Love my Dottie Shorty Socks. Cute, comfortable and Green!! What more could you ask for. A great addition to my Darn Tough collection of socks."

— Janet N. (5/5)

These shorty’s are now my

"These shorty’s are now my besties! Snug, smart, sexy. My favorite socks ever! And darn tough too."

— RIKA B. (5/5)

Polka Dots

"I love this style for warm, summer days and the pattern is so cute!!"

— Tammy G. (5/5)

Cute and comfy, great for summer!

"These are great lightweight socks for when it is very very hot and I don't want to wear socks."

— Noemi G. (5/5)

Your feet are in very good hands.

"I came for the dots. I stayed because my feet refused to leave. The merino wool is so soft it borders on suspicious for something marketed as durable. Spoiler: it is. Darn Tough's lifetime guarantee means these little spotted companions will outlive trends, bad decisions, and possibly civilization itself. A+ for feet. A+ for dots."

— Ada L. (5/5)

comfy and cute

"love this no cushion quarter sock!"

— Vivian H. (5/5)

Green FTW!

"Fun polka-dots! It's rare to find green socks and these are adorable for the summer. Something to keep in mind is sizing. . . my shoe size is 6-7 womens, with 6. 5 being pretty solid. However, Darn Tough socks for that size range are too snug for me so I go with medium. But if you prefer snug socks, then go with their suggested size range."

— Sarah B. (5/5)
