  • Women's over the calf socks average 16.25 in. from heel to cuff - expect them to cover the leg to just below the knee.
  • A performance fit means no slipping, no bunching, no boundaries. Here's to feeling connected and comfortable in your boots run after run.
  • Merino Wool has a natural ability to move heat and moisture, keeping skier's and rider's feet warm and dry.
  • Lightweight socks balance breathability with responsive temperature regulation to keep feet comfortable all day.
  • Reinforced Achilles cushion reduces heel lift, which helps socks feel better on and last season to season.
  • We close every toe seam using our True Seamless™ Toe technology for an ultra smooth, undetectable feel.
  • The “still” in Still Made in Vermont, USA is personal. We knit all our socks at our VT-based Mills - we can't imagine it any other way.
  • Unconditionally Guaranteed for Life - if these aren’t the longest lasting socks you’ve ever owned, return them for another pair.

Either way, our fit is sublime, the arch support relieves fatigue, and the comfort will carry you to wherever it is you’re going to tell your stories of the day.

Reviews

I work retail and am

"I work retail and am on my feet constantly. I not only find your Socks supportive but very high in quality. I’m very hard on my shoes and sock . I’m bending stretching and moving constantly all day. I even recommended them to my Dr. and he’s now hooked on them. It’s really hard to find quality goods and reasonable prices."

— Paulette R. (5/5)

Great ski socks

"Fit perfectly. Lightweight is perfect to not add bulk into the ski boot. They keep my feet warm and dry. Artwork/ styling is adorable"

— Danielle S. (5/5)

These socks are not only

"These socks are not only really well made, they are pretty too. The foot bed stays put, the heel doesn’t bunch up…I have large calves, so they are very snug. I don’t typically wear ski socks for this very reason, but I thought I’d give these a try. They definitely stay up and do not sag. I have passed them along to another friend who loves them."

— Elizabeth T. (5/5)

Love the sock. Very comfortable

"Love the sock. Very comfortable and not to tight for it to go over the calf of my leg. Can wear them all day with no issues. Wish I had a better selection so I could order more."

— Jo B. (5/5)

Best wool sock ever

"Gorgeous pattern! Soft no-itch wool, light compression. Amazing quality! Wool socks do not smell if you air them out overnight after wearing them all day! Fit is prefect! I wear a size 8. 5 and bought a medium. Love Darn Tough’s guarantee!"

— Stacie W. (5/5)

Love love these socks

"Love love love these socks! Super comfortable and cute design"

— Diana H. (5/5)

Darn Tough never disappoints. True

"Darn Tough never disappoints. True quality not only because they’re made in the USA but the fabric and choice of colors keep me coming back for more. These socks don’t wear out like the average name brands in the big box stores."

— Tammy H. (5/5)

ALPINE OTC | CRANBERRY

"Okay, I have many Darn Tough Socks. This most recent pair of Women's Alpine Over-the-Calf Lightweight Ski & Snowboard Socks in CRANBERRY are fun and super comfy. Thanks Maggie! I’m vertically challenged so if I pulled these socks up high they’d probably be over my knees! When I’m on my feet all day these socks feel like compression stockings, massaging my calves and feet but they’re much easier to put on. My legs and feet don’t ache at the end of a busy day; they feel great! The merino wool keeps me warm and comfy but not sweaty or hot, and not ever itchy. They are the perfect weight, not too lightweight. The pattern and color are super cute. They wash up and dry great. I don’t usually wash any of my Darn Tough Merino Wool Socks until after the 3rd wearing and they don’t have a bad odor after 3 wearings. I do alternate my socks between wearings. Darn Tough customer service is outstanding! Thanks! Anyway, I just wanted to thank you all at Darn Tough for providing us with amazingly comfortable and long lasting, quality socks! You should be very proud of yourselves. I know I would be proud to have a part in the process of bringing Darn Tough Socks to the masses! Happy Holidays!"

— Cecilia L. (5/5)

Reputable brand made of 100%

"Reputable brand made of 100% merino wool, which means your toes won’t freeze even with wet socks from wet snow. Love the cute designs too."

— Yan L. (5/5)

Alpine socks

"Love them, higher to stay put in my boots. So pretty!"
