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.

Reviews

Finger lakes hike.

"Love these socks. Used them on an 8 mile hike in the finger lakes area of NY. Hiked some semi dry creek beds and the full cushion provided exceptional comfort. Love the style and colors. They look great with my hikers. I’ve several pairs of DT socks and they are by far the best."

— Jeff G. (5/5)

Very comfortable and solid socks

"I have only used these on one backpacking trip so far but I was impressed with them. I have friends who have these and rave about them but I have never owned a pair until now. We will see how they stand up over time as I do a lot of hiking and backpacking, but I like them so far!"

— Dale R. (5/5)

Best wool socks ever

"I purchased these socks for western elk hunting about 12 years ago. I also wear them every year in ohio for whitetail hunting or any cold activity in the fall/winter. I can wear them several days without washing and have zero odor even when hiking all day long. After all this time they finally wore thin on the bottoms so I took advantage of the lifetime warranty. I paid shipping to send them back and within the week I had a new pair on the way. Can't say enough about the quality and customer service of Darn tough."

— Bryan E. (5/5)

Excellent socks for hiking/backpacking

"These are excellent for when I need more cushion support when friction is constant during hiking/backpacking. These protect my skin very well. Additionally they are warm, but not too hot, wick away mosture, and can be worn for days without smelling awful. Whats not to love?"

— Railey H. (5/5)

Simply the best!

"This is the sock I reach for anytime I head to the FireLine. As a wildland firefighter and paramedic. These are the sock I will take with me no matter what! The cushion is perfect for long hard days walking miles with a heavy pack. These socks have never failed me and if they do the warranty is top notch. Everyone should own a pair of these! Once you try a pair you will agree. They are unbeatable."

— Brendon R. (5/5)

The best sock I’ve ever

"The best sock I’ve ever purchased I can wear it in any season I can wear it for three to four days before having to wash it The socks that I have purchased from you in the past have lasted over ten years When I share with my friends that when they finally wore out and you replaced them for free, at first they don’t believe me Thanks again"

— michael r. (5/5)

Extremely Comfortable…

"After six years of use I returned a pair of Darn Tough Socks for replacement under the unconditional guarantee. They were replaced with Darn Tough Full Pad Boot Socks. WOW! The comfort is amazing. The pad is thick and the fit is great. They do not squish if I wear them three days in a row. And…I wear them in North Carolina in the summer and my feet don’t sweat. They’re Merino wool and apparently wool doesn’t make your feet sweat. I’m a believer."

— Lonny M. (5/5)

Love these socks. Feel great

"Love these socks. Feel great on my feet. Can wear them for hiking, working or just casual. Have had many pairs over the years and they just keep going. Great quality."

— Jim W. (5/5)

The Workhorse

"If socks were horses, this is the Clydesdale. It just GOES. I've used it for everyday use, extended hiking and extended outdoor work. Depending on the climate in your area, it's very versatile for temperature range and pairs perfectly in winter as an 'everything' sock, short of those extreme periods when expedition weight is called for. This is a GREAT sock that I will continue to go back to for additional pairs. Highest recommendation."

— Patrick E. (5/5)

These socks are very comfortable

"These socks are very comfortable with the cushion bottoms help a lot on walking, hiking. I would not be buying any other brand."

— Donald R. (5/5)

Q&A

My husband has wide feet with a high instep. Should I size up from a Men’s L to a Men’s XL to allow for extra width and instep? His shoe size is 10.5 - 11 Thank you
We would recommend sticking with the L and trying something from our Tactical line as they tend to offer more stretch than some of our other styles!
