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

good cushioning, too tight top

"I have had Darn Tough socks before, but the taller ones have always been too tight on my legs. These shorter ones, while still tight, don't cut into my ankles or slide down. I am not particularly heavy, but I wish that the tops were just a little more forgiving. The cushioning is lovely and would get more if they weren't so tight at the top"

— Sharon H. (5/5)

A Company That Stands Behind Its Product

"Not only do I appreciate my Darn Tough sox, I appreciate how Darn Tough stands behind their sox. On the rare occasion that I have worn out my Darn Tough sox (I have a sock drawer filled with all kinds of them), Darn Tough has stood behind its lifetime warranty and replaced them. Darn Tough sox are comfortable, easy to wash (I never dry them in a dryer but let them air dry on a drying rack), padded in the right places for everyday wear as well as hiking, and well — darn tough."

— Jakki S. (5/5)

Size up

"I have bought DTVS for years and generally love them. Quarter height is best for me. I wear 8.5-9 shoes but wide feet. A medium is just too snug, so I finally bought women’s large and it fits much better. Slightly long is better than too snug."

— Cathy S. (4/5)

Great everyday sock

"Such a good fit and weight. The perfect mid weight thickness. Great everyday sock!"

— Emma W. (5/5)

Q&A

In women’s sizes, if my shoe size is 9 1/2 or 10, should I chose a Medium or Large?
Hi Beth! Some customers who fall on the upper end of a size run do choose to size up due to the snug, performance fit of our socks. We know it can be tricky to shop for socks online so we got you covered with free return shipping for exchanges or returns for 90 days on all orders placed on our website, just in case!
Hi, are these hiking socks waterproof?
Hi Ash! While our socks aren’t waterproof, they do wick moisture and keep your feet dry and comfortable. Here’s an article that dives into how our moisture-wicking socks work!:https://darntough.com/blogs/the-alternate-stitch/merino-wool-makes-best-moisture-wicking-socks
How does these midweight socks perform in higher temperatures such as 80-90f? Will they overheat?
The Women's Hiker Quarter Midweight Hiking Sock will perform well in various temperatures, including higher temperature climates. Merino wool fibers regulate body temperature, and will not overheat.
Why doesn't Darn Tough make black hiking socks? I own several colors of Darn Tough hiking socks but what I really want is a pair of light or midweight quarter hiking socks in BLACK.
Hi Wendy! Sounds like our T4088 is just what you are looking for! You will find these in our Tactical category, which are sold in unisex sizing. If you wear a women's medium, you will find the same fit with our unisex small. If you need any further assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out!
