  • 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.

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

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)

Great for running, but need more durability

"I love the thin feel of these socks and the way that they wick. I only give it a 4 because they seem to have a short life span. I have multiple pair that I cycle through as I run every day. These socks are great for running, but over time the uppers wear thin and tear when you are pulling them on. Fortunately, Darn Tough replaces them for just the cost of shipping but I would like to see them have a little more durability."

Ronnie B. (4/5)

Outstanding socks

"Darn Tough makes the best socks, full stop. The socks are comfortable, durable, they breathe well, wick away moisture and deter smell. Extra easy to care for. I wear these Quarter Ultra-Lightweight Running Socks all the time. They are my everyday sock and they both wear great and look good. I've been a DT customer for over 20 years and they've never slipped in quality or customer service, not once."

Gene W. (5/5)

Great feeling sock that fits well

"So far I like the socks very well. The fit is good and comfort is better than other cheaper socks I have worn. I've only worn them a couple of times so I cannot seak on the toughness of the socks yet but they do seem to fit well"

Charles D. (5/5)

Darn Good

"Made a few runs on these socks. No hot spots! Feel darn good!!"

Andrès S. (5/5)

Great Summer Sock!

"My husband has been waiting for these to come back in stock and believe me they are worth the wait! Soft and durable with that cushion that Darn Tough made famous. They worth the price as all Darn Tough have a lifetime warranty. We have purchased Darn Tough for 20 years and never had to use that warranty. I have socks from when I first purchased years ago."

Debra S. (5/5)

Popular for a reason

"They even wick away moisture in plastic foam clogs. I had a run in the sock's fabric that I thought I'd have to send back and use the warranty, but they're well woven enough that after cutting out the loose threads I don't notice a difference."

Trey M. (5/5)

I'll try other socks, but

"I'll try other socks, but I always come back to Darn Tough. The quality, durability, and warranty are simply the best."

Jack F. (5/5)

Super socks!

"Sturdy yet comfortable for long walks. Great pair of socks."

Gaston B. (5/5)

Solid Sock but

"I love the feel of these and the strategic padding. The cons have been twofold. First, the sizing as I have a fairly significant amount of empty toe room and can’t pull that part of the sock tight. Secondly, I wore them on a 5 mile power walk in my Hoka shoes. When I took off the shoe, there was significant “balling” on the back side of my heals."

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.
