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

These socks are A+ and

"These socks are A+ and #1. Why? One of my favorite things is exactly for lightweight the are. Once you slip them on, you see them but you don't really feel them. Yes, they provide comfort but they aren't bulky or bunge up anywhere. You can tell that the folks behind the design of this sock intended to wear them. They feel just right, reinforcement where you expect it. They look expensive and the various features are just what you'd want in a sock and provide what you didn't know you need in a sock. I can wear them all day and they don't smell bad they do make my feet hot either. We live in The Valley, the far south of Texas so I won't be able to comment if they keep your feet warm, but I can assure you these aren't going to make them hot. Even from the packaging the quality of this sock is apparent. The stitching is perfect all around the sock. There aren't any imperfections or mistakes. The material feels expensive and I'm sure it is. These are 100% excellent socks and I will never buy a brand other than Darn Tough. Y'all are awesome."

— Mike J. (5/5)

Good socks for sensitive skin.

"A very comfortable sock. It fits like a glove and makes my shoes feel 10 time more comfortable. I have autism so even the slightest discomfort feels magnified and these feel like I'm wearing silk."

— Taylor B. (5/5)

Love them!

"I love these socks and really glad it's offered in a non-cushioned version. On some of my shoes I prefer less bulkyness with my socks especially in hot weather."

— Gary L. (5/5)

Great socks, impossible to get.

"The socks are fantastic. However, it is impossible to get these in Canada. I had to ship these in US and pick them up there. All I want is to be able to order the SKU I need, but the Canadian distributor can't do it. Please consider fixing this. I want to buy more of your product!"

— ADAM W. (5/5)

These are my go-to running

"These are my go-to running socks. They are light weight, good looking and most importantly, cushioned. The socks allowed me to run in my light racing shoes with minimum foot impact."

— Newton L. (5/5)

the size of the socks

"the size of the socks are a little bit different, and it’s light enough for me."

— ZUO H. (4/5)

Next to Nothing

"Ultra-lightweight feel like next to nothing on your feet, just as it should be if you like running without the feel of socks that make your feet too hot and running barefoot."

— Walter R. (5/5)

Great socks for hot weather

"Awesome fit, and super lightweight for summer. Love the quality and color and overall design. Great addition to my sock drawer."

— Ralf N. (5/5)

Great everyday summer socks

"I don't use these for running, but for an everyday summer sock. The weight is perfect for summer and I stay cool and dry all day. Quality is top notch and despite being so thing, they feel very durable."

— Jonathan E. (5/5)

Positive so far

"These socks are honestly super comfy, super soft, and my feet smelled much less than normal after a full day of wear and post workout. My foot size is a size 10 US triple E (wide). These fit well, a tad snug, but not into uncomfortable territory. I might order one pair in a size up just to test but it seems excessive. I fear the price tag may be worth it. So expensive to replace a whole drawer though. If anything changes I’ll be sure to update my review. I wish they made them in more basic colors but what can ya do."

— Narnia N. (5/5)
