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.

the socks that keep up with me

"I have worn darn tough since 2018-landscaping, BLM fencer, USFS mule packer, trailwork, and these socks are my constant companion. No slip, no fail, and when they wear out you can send them back- Buy it for life. . ."

— Sophia F. (5/5)

Best choice for warm weather hiking

"I wanted a taller sock for hiking as I use taller boots. I get rashes in warmer weather around my upper ankles so I wanted to try a lighter weight sock. I also use light weight liners because my skin is allergic to wool - even merino wool, and my feet sweat a good amount. I tried these socks on a warm dry day. They were comfortable but I still developed a rash on the back of my ankle/calf. I will still use them with a liner as they were cooler than my other smart wool socks."

— Juli S. (4/5)

Great Socks

"Very happy with these. They are lightweight for the warmer weather and high enough that I can tuck my pants into them for tick prevention. Great for hiking."

— April O. (5/5)

Durable!

"Have had many pairs of these socks over the years and I love the feel of them on my feet. Happy when I see them as my next pair in my drawer to wear. lol"

— Joe H. (5/5)

Good for warm weather

"I wear these for work with steel toe boots and I find them comfortable in hot weather. They're much thinner than my other darn tough socks. Hopefully they are equally as durable, I haven't had them long enough to say yet though"

— Emily F. (5/5)

So comfortable!!!

"Walked 10 miles in new Darn Tough light hikers, not one hot spot, I've many miles in other Darn Tough socks and they are the only ones I will wear on long hikes."

— John O. (5/5)

Best Socks

"These lightweight hiking/boot socks are great for hiking or anything else. They are cushioned so my feet stay happy all day. They're comfortable with my hiking boots or my OnCloud shoes for walking,etc. I also have a shorter version of this same sock for warmer weather."

— Sally W. (5/5)

Awesome socks and company

"I love the feel and durability of these socks. The company is fast and easy to work with."

— Rachel B. (5/5)

Love it!
