Darn Tough Vermont Men's Modern Socks

I recently embarked on a gruelling 15-mile hike in scorching 28-degree heat, and I must say, the Darn Tough Men's #1466 Hiker Micro Crew Cushion Merino Socks exceeded my expectations in every way! These socks are an absolute game-changer for any outdoor enthusiast, and I'm thrilled to share my experience with fellow adventurers. First and foremost, let's talk about comfort.

Speaking of breathability, the merino wool material used in these socks is simply phenomenal. Despite the scorching heat, my feet remained remarkably cool and dry throughout the entire journey. The moisture-wicking properties of merino wool are truly remarkable. I couldn't believe how well these socks kept my feet fresh and odour-free, even after hours of strenuous hiking. No more soggy, sweaty feet for me! Durability is another aspect where the Darn Tough socks truly shine. The name says it all, and these socks live up to their reputation.

They strike the perfect balance between warmth and breathability, making them suitable for a wide range of temperatures. Whether you're hiking in sweltering heat or exploring cooler climates, these socks will adapt to your needs. I imagine they offer reliable insulation during chilly mornings, yet remain breathable as the day heats up. This adaptability ensures that your feet are always comfortable, regardless of the weather conditions. To top it all off, Darn Tough's commitment to quality and customer satisfaction is exemplary. Their lifetime guarantee is a testament to their confidence in the product's longevity. It's rare to find a company that stands by their merchandise with such unwavering confidence.

Don't hesitate to invest in these socks – your feet will thank you for it! Happy trails!

Been using darn tough for years and never had a blister wearing them while completing numerous hikes (run a childrens hoking and adventure group, spend most weekends outdoors, hiking and climbing). Now wear a pair every day as really comfortable, great at temperature regulation and never get holes in so clearly high quality. Not had a hole in a single pair yet although have lost 1 pair and an individual sock from another pair 🤦‍♂️ Might be £25-30 a pair but definitely great value for money as they will never need replacing.

I was actually quite apprehensive of spending so much on one pair of socks but my god the quality and comfort these socks provide is second to none they are amazing and touch wood have walked over 5 miles.sothoit a single blister they are quite thick so will keep you warm and dry out really quickly and the fact that you get a lifetime guarantee you really carnt argue with the price, treat your feet!

Very good in many ways. My feet felt lovely and softly cocooned even though the socks aren't very thick. They also come far enough up above the tops of my leather walking boots to enable me to tuck in my trousers. Just knocked off a star as the base of my feet still got sore after about 6 miles, although I've found since, that re-tying my boots every 3 miles or so combats this quite nicely. Maybe I also need to work on building up my darn tough calluses :)

Right, you lot, listen up. Here's the lowdown on these Darn Tough "Hiker" socks, style #1466. Fancy name, I'll grant you, but don't let that Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster you just had cloud your judgement. These things are the real deal. Firstly, they're made of this posh "merino wool." Sounds like something Vogons would wear, but trust me, it's the opposite. Soft as a Pan Galactic massage, but tougher than Marvin's robot backside. Kept my feet happy on a trek that would make Ford Prefect whimper. Secondly, the cushioning! Imagine walking on a cloud... no, not one of those Vogon spaceships, a proper, fluffy Earth cloud. Plush terry loops underfoot, targeted protection for the Achilles – blistered feet are a thing of the past. Blistered feet, for crying out loud! Who wants to deal with that when you're trying to save the universe? Now, I know what you're thinking: "Dent, anything's better than Vogon constructor boots!" True enough, but these socks are more than just "not terrible." They're durable, breathable, and they even come with a lifetime guarantee. Seriously, a lifetime guarantee. That's longer than the lifespan of a Vogon poet! So, the next time you're facing a Vogon constructor fleet, a hike across prehistoric Earth, or even just a trip to the shops, do your feet a favour and grab yourself a pair of these Darn Tough Hikers. Trust me, your feet will thank you. And if they don't, well, who needs ungrateful feet anyway? They're probably Vogon sympathizers. Just remember, don't panic, and don't forget your towel... and your Darn Tough socks!

Best walking socks ever. So comfy and don't go baggy on the foot.

Socks arrived promptly and look good quality. Were request by my son in law as a Christmas present so he has bought previously and been very happy with the fit and quality.

I've always had issues with getting blisters in hiking boots, after reading some reviews I've decided to give these a go. They feel great, warm, and soft. They have definitely helped me with blisters, but I have also started using sport tape to tape around the most problematic areas whilst I am breaking in new boots. Would definitely recommend!

I love these socks. I bought them to go hike Mt Whitney and they did an excellent job for the hike. They fit perfectly and tightly around your feet and have a thick bottom that is soft at the same time which make the socks very comfortable and perfect for any hike. The color is also cool looking and it goes well with my boots and pretty much any shorts I wear. I would 100% recommend these socks if you're looking for some quality product.

Simplesmente a melhor. Já tenho outras duas. Além de super confortáveis são extremamente resistentes.

They shrink a lot with washing and drying, would suggest getting larger then you may think to keep them in your size range over time.

Ordered a Medium as a gift for someone with smaller feet than me. Was to big even on me!? Much thinner than I expected with something with "cushion". I have about 5 different types of socks and these fall short, especially for the price.

I now have 7 pair of these. Along with 3 pair of Darn Tough Men's Quarter Lightweight Running Sock (Style 1715) for shorts weather. I turn 50 next year and I'm fairly certain I found the last socks I will ever buy. I absolutely LOVE these. Back when I was getting whatever socks were cheapest at brick and mortar I would go through socks like water. They would never last. Holes within days. I got foot fatigue from wearing cheap socks within hours of putting them on. My feet would get itchy if I left the cheap socks on for more than an hour without shoes. And the swamp foot I would get from my work boots could choke a billy goat. Everything I experienced with cheap socks are gone since getting these. I can wear them all day and night and they almost feel like slippers. My feet don't get itchy anymore if I wear them all day around the house without shoes. They don't get my feet too hot, keeping them perfectly comfortable. They do NOT fall down either. Possibly ever so slightly depending what my jeans are doing but I have yet to have them bunch up at the top of my shoe. And the swamp foot vanished almost overnight. I tried EVERYTHING to get rid of the stink. These socks are the ONLY thing that worked for me. Breathable and wicking yet warm/cool and cozy. I swear they feel like slippers to me. The only time I do not have them on are when I'm sleeping or showering. And they seem to get better with use. When they are new they don't seem like much. Kinda thin but still more substantial to regular cotton socks I guess. After a few washes they thicken up and get comfortable as hell. A nice bonus. My shoe size varies but I range from a 10 1/2 wide to an 11 1/2 wide depending on footwear manufacturer so I went with the large. They were slightly tight to begin with when they were new but after a few washes they kinda stretched out and fit me perfectly now. I'm wondering if that's where some of the negative reviews point of views come from. There IS a break in period with these socks. Please remember that. They may not be flawless when new but give them some time and they WILL shine! Now I have zero problems paying a premium for higher quality products and these are definitely worth every penny spent. And if they last as long as they claim all the better. My perfect sock.
