  • A performance fit means no slipping, no bunching, no blisters for peak hiking comfort.
  • Synthetic COOLMAX® yarns are vegan and help feet beat the heat and stay dry while hiking.
  • Midweight Coolmax® socks actively move moisture to keep feet in their comfort zone on the trail. Vegan friendly.
  • 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

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

Way too tight

"I ordered several different styles of XL Micro Crew Midweight socks and all fit but this style. The CoolMax have almost no stretch to them and feel like a compression bandage. After struggling to get them on, I hoped they would stretch a bit during my drive to the job site, but after arriving, my right foot hurt and had lost most of the blood flow to it and I had to change into a back-up pair of socks I keep in my bag. I have a size 13 foot, do not wear wide shoes, and weigh ~170 lbs. I like the other styles but cannot recommend the CoolMax, unfortunately. Some reviewers seem to love them, so maybe there is batch inconsistency issues or they have super narrow/smaller feet."

Tight for wide feet!

"I ordered 4 pairs and I have several other styles of Darn Tough, however these are way too tight for my wide feet! This brand is good so instead of sending them back, I just gifted them to a friend. He reports back that they are great. He it the guy that still wears cotton socks in the field! Hopefully he'll convert"

— Tim S. (5/5)

Stick with Marino wool socks!

"It is nowhere near as good as your Marino wool socks! It is not as comfortable or warm."

— Edwin G. (2/5)

Love of my Life

"Darn Tough is simply the sock of a lifetime for me. Nothing beats them—neither in terms of quality nor the likeability of the team. When you love something, you stick with it. I don't think I'll ever hike in anything else."

— Thomas P. (5/5)

Great Socks

"I bought these and a few other Darn Tough socks to figure out what I like best. These socks have been great. There was another pair of full cushion midweight socks that became my favorite, but these have been great and when I use them hiking in NM heat, I think I will like these better than the other heavier pair."

— Jeff K. (5/5)

Best socks ever

"Like every other darn tough socks I’ve bought they have not let me down. Comfortable to wear and keep my feet dry."

— Robert H. (5/5)

Very good

"Sometimes due to either material or sizing differences some of the darn tough products seem smaller than advertised. That is a little bothersome as they are premium at a premium price!"

— Anthony G. (4/5)

Amazing customer service , great

"Amazing customer service , great socks for long hikes !"

— Axel H. (5/5)

Good for a day hike, but not for multi-day treks (

"I spend several days at a time in the mountains, usually hiking about 30 km a day. I tried these Coolmax socks on my last trip, but unfortunately, after just 3 days of use, I developed blisters. This is highly unusual for me, as I normally use the 100% Merino Wool socks from this brand and have never gotten a blister with those. Because of my experience, I am returning these Coolmax socks and going back to buying the full Merino wool versions. Overall, if you are only using these for a single day hike, they are probably great. However, if you are planning to use them for multi-day hikes with high mileage, I do not recommend them. Stick to the Merino wool!"

Q&A

Which socks are best for constant “4-6 days”of rain on trail ? I’ve heard two pair of thin nylon socks. What is your opinion. There’s no right answer just FYI.
Hi Ron! We've reached out to you directly via email to provide some recommendations!
My husband is a power journeyman Lineman currently in southern California with extreme heat. He often works 16hr days in the direct sun and heat. I am looking for a sock with main purpose of keeping feet dry, slipping and staying up while working. In addition to something to prevent the sweating and smell! Would this be an appropriate sock or is there a better one to try?
Hi Jennifer! While our Coolmax Hiker Micro Crew Midweight Hiking sock is great, you might check out our Work sock line up for your husband! They're made with merino wool for thermoregulation, moisture wicking, and odor resistance. They also feature mesh windows on the top of the foot to help vent sweat! You can check those out here -- https://darntough.com/collections/mens-work-socks -- and look at the Fred Tuttle for a good alternative for the Coolmax Hiker Micro Crew. : )
Hello, Do you offer totally all white socks (NO RAINBOWS) for men XL
Hi Rob, while we don't offer many all-white socks at the micro crew/crew height - you might check out the Men's Element Crew Sock -- https://darntough.com/collections/mens-athletic-socks/products/mens-merino-wool-element-crew-lightweight-athletic-socks -- they feature minimal striping on the white colorway! If you need any further assistance, please don't hesitate to contact us. Darn Tough Vermont Support Team 877-327-6883 support@darntough.com
