  • Men's 1/4 socks average 14 cm from heel to cuff - expect them to show about 8 cm above a running sneaker.
  • A performance fit means no slipping, no bunching, no blisters. Here's to focusing on your run and not your feet.
  • Synthetic COOLMAX® yarns are vegan and help feet stay cool and dry while running.
  • Ultra-lightweight, low-profile Coolmax® socks keep your feet in their comfort zone for miles. 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
  • Unconditionally Guaranteed for Life - if these aren’t the longest lasting socks you’ve ever owned, return them for another pair.

Style Number: 1055

These cushioned 1/4 socks feature soft terry loops under the foot for lasting rebound while running.

Blister-Free Running

Beyond the moisture-wicking our running socks swear to, their fit is equally key. With a truly seamless wrap around your foot, they fit well and work well with any running shoe – trail or road. Depending on your style or desired features, we have heights ranging from no-shows and quarters to micro crews and over-the-calf run socks. All are knit with our ultra-lightweight yarn, while some styles have cushion for added protection and comfort. The best fit you’ve ever worn, accompanied with Merino’s performance, leads to incredible comfort that will leave you blister-free.

Reviews

Delightful

"Listen! These are fantastic socks. I will be replacing the rest of the socks in my drawer with these. They are soft, perfectly cushioned, beautifully constructed (no perceptible weak points that I can see). They fit snugly and securely without being too tight or constricting. I am a huge fan!"

— Michael D. (5/5)

Nice socks

"The compression was mentioned but is more than I expected for an athletic sock. It does seem to hold up nicely with washing and workouts. Since I'm allergic to wool, I appreciated the synthetic options."

— Catherine W. (5/5)

Tough, light quarter crew socks

"So far, the socks have held up. I'm pretty tough on my clothing, especially socks as I walk around the house in them. They seem to be a bit tight, so I ordered the extra large vs. the large from my last order. I can't tell the size difference- both fit but can be tough (pun intended?) to pull on. Once they're on, they feel great. A previous pair that I purchased is really thin in one area, but these particular pair seem to be just fine. I wear them as everyday socks, even though they are for running. I don't want crazy colors and designs- I wish I could get white quarter crew socks that are a bit thicker."

— Brendan T. (5/5)

Great Socks for the Heat 🔥

"Super breathable and comfortable, I would recommend this product for anyone looking for a hot weather sock for hiking and trail/road running. Also, plenty of cushion for how thin they are!"

— Steven G. (5/5)

Phenomenal running socks

"These socks maybe be considered ultra lightweight but I personally feel they have more cushion than many others I have tried. If you like socks that make you feel like you aren’t wearing any then these may not be the socks for you. But if you like cushion when running they are perfect!"

— Samuel K. (5/5)

Darn Tough is the BEST

"Darn Tough never fails me. The padding is always high quality from light to heavy. My feet never stink. Can last a hot minute without washing if camping/hiking."

— Holly L. (5/5)

Elite foot covers

"Never felt something so dreamy and comfy on the bottom of my legs. True to size. True to color. (black) True to weight. True to cool max. I put the socks on my foot and then put my shoe over them. That seemed to work best. I tried running in just the socks and that had limited benefit. I do not believe that is how they were designed. I did reach out to Darn Tough just to clarify but I did not receive a response back. In all fairness I did send my message via Carrier pigeon in training, so I don’t hold any case against their customer service."

— Eric G. (5/5)

Great golfing sock

"Fit incredibly snug and comfortable. Just high and snug enough to keep dirt and debris out of the sock against your foot. And of course they last forever!"

— Peter W. (5/5)

Great Quality! My new favorite sock

"Socks are super high quality! I can absolutely feel the difference between these socks and normal cotton socks I had before. Darn tough has a very high thread count and is just fun to wear! I'll slowly be replacing my sock drawer with only these as my everyday/athletic socks. Great customer service and great company, I'll purchase again!"

— Brandon M. (5/5)

they where to tight I

"they where to tight I wear a size ten and half shoe got a large pair but to tight"

— Randy G. (4/5)

Q&A

Do you make a Bike Sock?
We don't have a sock for biking specifically because our diverse options are great for all athletic activities! Our biker friends tend to go for the Ultralightweight UnCushioned Socks! Feel free to reach out to us with any other questions. Darn Tough Vermont 877-327-6883 support@darntough.com
I'm looking for a good mens sock to wear for playing golf What do you recommend?
Our socks are known for the performance fit and any of our lighter styles would be great on the golf course. Something with light cushion or midweight cushion would add some comfort underfoot and still provide a breathable feel in your shoes.
