  • A performance fit means no slipping, no bunching, no blisters for peak hiking comfort.
  • Merino Wool is at home on the trail, naturally moving moisture to keep feet fresh and dry in all weather.
  • Lightweight socks breathe naturally and deliver flexible, all-day comfort for summer hiking.
  • 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.

Haven’t even opened the package

"Haven’t even opened the package yet. But if they’re like my other dozen or so pairs, I’m sure they’ll be great."

Fastpack Micro Crew Lightweight Hiking Socks

"Love em’! They are incredibly true to size and incredibly tough; they live up to the hype. The socks are comfy and breathable and also super stylish!! I’m still in my mid-teens and I know that I’ve found a brand for life. I’ve worn pairs for weeks at a time (washing them every couple of days give or take) and they’ve held up amazingly. This is my third pair and I’m glad to say that they are excellent. Highly recommend if you are looking for long lasting socks!"

Joe F. (5/5)

So nice!

"These are my first Darn Tough socks and I am very happy about the purchase. The socks are true to fit. The lightweight and merino wool helps keep my feet from sweating. I love that the company stands by their warranty if ever needed."

Daniel G. (5/5)

Amazing socks, but beware of Swiss customs fees

"These are my first pair of Darn Tough socks, and they are a total game-changer—the kind of discovery that makes you want to replace your entire sock drawer. However, as someone living in Switzerland, my enthusiasm was dampened by the 30% extra I had to pay in customs duties and fees. • Product Quality: 5 stars (unbeatable). • Shipping Information/Transparency: 1 star. I love the product, but I will be looking for a different local distributor or channel for my future purchases to avoid these unexpected costs. Thank you."

Don’t Wear Anything Else!

"I almost never wear anything except Darn Tough socks, cycling is the rare exception and even there I am moving to DT’s!"

James G. (5/5)

Perfect socks!

"Amazing colors and fit. Keeps me cool."

JARED C. (5/5)

Super high quality

"Super high quality, love the cushioning and the style. I’ll never buy a different brand of socks again."

Joseph S. (5/5)

My favorite sock, bring back blackberry!

"These are my favorite all-around socks for most of the time except really hot or really cold. Please bring back the blackberry colorway!!"

Wm E. (4/5)

Very comfortable.

"Very comfortable."

BARBARA Y. (5/5)

Great!

"No surprise here, the quality of these socks are amazing. Darn Tough is my go to brand and has been for years. I love the design and colors of these socks, and the crew size is perfect. The light weight is very comfortable and breathable, and the padding doesn't impact how cool these socks stay at all. I don't need any more socks but I'm going to be ordering more just because I love having a variety. Easily the best socks available."
