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

Great company, Great mtn peak design, fit, feel

"American made and owned - love it - keep it up! Great fit on 9. 5 mens foot. Comfortable, with a medium thickness that should hold up longer, too. Mtn peaks design super cool with nice colors, soft thread stitching, and sweat wicking /odor absorbing miracles. Next order will repurchase same, my highest review compliment. These were a warranty pair and Darn Tough is a darn great company for customer support and product feel, mtrl, and design."

Best Hiking Socks

"I've now purchased 6 of these socks for hiking. I'm training for a 500 mile hike, so I appreciate the durability & comfort and want to make sure I always have a pair available. Happy to support a great product made in the USA!"

James H. (5/5)

Stopgap solution, needs a full cushion variant.

"Bought as a stopgap for summer months as DT doesn't make full cushion midweight quarter socks. Feel is good, works well with daily usage. I find that the top of the ankle feels uncomfortable when i first put them on, then gets better over the day. Visual design is nonetheless excellent. The standard cushion is acceptable. However I prefer the full cushion on DT's boot height, full cushion, midweight socks for longer term/all day performance Recommend to DT to develop full cushion, midweight, quarter height socks similar to their boot height ones."

. . . HAPPY FEET SINCE 2019

"FINE SOCKS . . . MERINO WOOL !! SINCE 2019, DARN TOUGH SOCKS ARE THE ONLY SOCKS I WEAR. I HAVE THE # 1959 MEN'S HIKER QUARTER MIDWEIGHT HIKING SOCKS = 1/4 SOCKS FOR WARMER MONTHS & # 1405 DARN TOUGH HIKER BOOT FULL CUSHION FOR THE COLDER MONTHS. I AM NOW TESTING A PAIR OF THE #6118 SHORTY HEAVYWEIGHT SOCKS IN BOTH SHOES & SNEAKERS TO MAKE SURE THEY WILL NOT BE TO HOT NOR TOO SNUG IN THESE SHOES . . . SO FAR SO GOOD"

GREGG S. (5/5)

"I am touchy about what goes on my feet. These are the only sock brand I will own. I literally got rid of every other sock and invested in my happiness with Darn tough. The fit is perfect. Construction excellent. No seams. All types are offered fit every need. Not only for hiking, these can be used every day. Buy one cry never!"

Wesley T. (5/5)

Love Darn Tough

"Live these socks for all year round. The cusion definitely helps reduce fatigue and aches after long work days. And the fact that merino wool breathes so well and dries easily without all the stink makes any of the socks from darn tough the only socks I wear. I got these ones as warranty replacements for a pair I've had for years. These socks really are Darn Tough."

Joseph H. (4/5)

Worth your money!

"Yeah, they're expensive, but these are probably the best socks I've ever owned! I stepped in sap and after one normal wash, there's no sign that anything happened somehow🤷‍♂️ These socks keep my feet dry and comfortable all day. I feel like royalty just walking around the house in these! I highly recommend!"
