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

The Best There Is

"Darn Tough are always my go to socks. I've tried other brands, wool and other fibers, but always come back to my Darn Tough socks because they are just perfect in every way. I love wool as a fiber that pulls the moisture away from your skin and breathes well, keeps you warm in winter and cool in summer. Its durable and Darn Toughs warranty is THE BEST there is."

— Jody K. (5/5)

These are dressier socks to

"These are dressier socks to be worn casually. I had a pair like them that I wore for daily 5 mile walks, and they got thin at the Achilles tendon."

— Jean B. (5/5)

Perfect lightweight everyday sock

"The perfect lightweight everyday sock for my feet. I’m a size 7 but went for the medium and they fit perfectly. Love the dark blue color, they go with so much of my wardrobe. The quality is great! I know I can wear them more than a day and know they’re still good. That guarantee is another incentive to help me decide these are my favorite brand."

— Kathryn K. (5/5)

Very thin socks

"Seem like decent socks, but they are THIN. Noticeably thinner than a basic Hanes cotton sock, which is what I usually imagine a "lightweight" sock to be. I think they might quite literally be paper thin (maybe 3 pieces of paper). We'll see if they hold up, but they're definitely a warm weather only sock."

— Jen (4/5)

Loving these lifestyle solid colors.

"I have different styles of darn tough socks and like them all for different reasons. I’ve recently tried these lifestyle socks with no cushion. They may be my favorite yet especially for a workday with my work shoes. I love that the colors are solid. I also have enjoyed my lifestyle socks with the cushion. I like these better when I’m wearing my sneakers and doing more walking and I love the different designs."

— Patricia A. (5/5)

"These socks are wonderful. They are soft, fit easily into standard shoes, and will probably cause me to order more because they are so comfortable!"

— Barbara K. (5/5)

Great sock

"As with all my Darn Tough socks, I love these socks. They are thin enough that they fit in my dress shoes. They keep my feet warm and are nice and comfy. They aren't cute like all the other fun and colorful socks made by Darn Tough. But sometimes you just need a solid color sock. And now I want to get all the other solid colors."

— Laura N. (5/5)

Q&A

Do you have toe socks
Hi Annette, we don't manufacture toe socks at this time.
Everything was perfect except for the elastic at the top which is so tight it leaves a dent in my leg and I do not have fat legs or ankles (under 10”). Do you make a more comfortable sock?
Hi Paula! While all our socks are knit with a snug, performance fit some customers find our Tactical Socks have a more forgiving stretch. You can check them out here -- https://darntough.com/collections/tactical-socks. We've got you covered with free returns and exchanges and you can send those tight socks back for an exchange or refund through this link, returns.darntough.com If you need any further assistance, please don't hesitate to contact us. Darn Tough Vermont Support Team 877-327-6883 support@darntough.com
When will these be back in stock in black, size large?
Thank you for reaching out and we apologize that the socks you're looking for are currently out of stock in your size. We are hustling to knit more as we speak and we're sorry that we can't provide an exact timeline of when we expect them back in stock. In the meantime, you may be able to find what you're looking for with one of our awesome dealers and some are even running sales at the moment. 😎
Do they feel itchy? I have sensitive skin
Hi JC, we use a Merino wool blend to knit our socks which feel very soft and cozy to the touch. Some people do experience a sensitivity or allergy to wool, and we offer synthetic Coolmax and Thermolite options for those people, which you will find on our website as well. We offer free return shipping for 90 days if you order from darntough.com so you can shop stress-free!
