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

By Far My Favorite Socks

"I have been wearing Darn Tough for about a year now, and they are by far my favorites. I bought three new designs this year. My wife loved the new design so much that she had me order her a pair. By far our family favorites. The fits is perfect, and with enough padding to keep my feet comfortable for those long walks. While they have a replacement guarantee, even my sharp toenails have not broken through these socks. I had to darn my old brand after about a month. These socks are showing no signs of wear and tear."

— Gerald W. (5/5)

Great for all hiking.

"Best hiking socks I have ever used. They are a tiny bit different this year, but so far, so good. The toe box was a little more squared, like they changed the last or the cut/sewing method, but it has not caused discomfort and functions exactly the same. I use these for any length of hike, usually 2 pairs works for multiple weeks. Wash one, wear one. All day, every day."

— William H. (5/5)

Great socks

"These Darn Tough socks are the best socks I have ever purchased. I wear them daily for work in Texas. All year long. I'm on my feet for 12 hours a day, so the fact that they pull the sweat away from my feet helps get me through the day with less fatigue. I would 100% recommend these socks for anyone needing reliability on those long hard days that you have to be on your feet out in the elements."

— Lucas D. (5/5)

Never a disappointment or even a question — Darn Tough socks are the bomb.

"Darn Tough socks continue to be absolute champions. The Quarter Socks are my new favorites — super easy to pull on and off, even for an old guy who’s earned the right to appreciate convenience. Whether fresh out of the package or worn for years, they always feel amazing. These socks just don’t miss."

— Stacy M. (5/5)

Love these socks

"I have been wearing these socks since 2018 and multiple pairs over 1500 miles in Spain on the Camino de Santiago. I love the comfort, ease of care and fit."

— Michael M. (5/5)

Great socks for summer months

"I wanted a pair of lower cut socks to wear during the warmer months. So far these socks have been great - they are my go-to for mountain biking. They fit very well, and don't make my feet feel clammy."

— Michael M. (5/5)

Socks that rock!

"Probably the best socks available today. Nicely crafted, comfortable, and eye-catching designs. The lifetime warranty is a plus not offered by other manufacturers. The socks fit well and are often the subject of compliments from friends."

— Thomas M. (5/5)

Size Not True buy bigger!

"these are the shortest1/4 crew sock i have ever warn, they are more like noshow. very tight fit provided discomfort late in the day and at removal time"

— Gary H. (2/5)

Great Socks to try

"So far holding up to be the best socks I have purchased. Was looking for something with more padding and comfort and this excels in that category."

— Gabriel G. (5/5)

Best Socks Ever

"These socks live up to their name Darn Tough. I have never wore a pair of socks that are as comfortable as these that last. I wear out other socks in a couple months. I have not yet wore out a pair of Darn Tough"

— Richard Z. (5/5)
