Darn Tough Men's #1959 Hiker 1/4 Sock Cushion Merino Wool Socks

A friend of mine suggested he rarely bought socks as he tends to spend money on them whilst I'm naturally thrifty and often go for the family packs of socks. After buying many pairs over many years where they usually rip around the toes or heel, or strangle my feet which do take some hammer as I do a lot of walking in the day, I decided that it was maybe time to pay more for quality. I looked around the web for recommendations as to what to buy and found the darn tough range highly recommended. Upon opening the package they looked thicker than the usual sock but they are a lovely fit, I'm touching on a size 11 so went for the larger size. I've worn and washed these now several times and they look as good as new. I've even had them on with leaky shoes and they have no signs of getting any holes in them. I will definitely build up a collection of these and will now recommend to all that it's definitely worth spending the extra, you'll only have to do it once! Congratulations Darn Tough for a great sock.

I have a great pair of Meindl leather hiking boots and always wear thick merino wool socks with my boots. In springtime, I put away my hiking boots and wear Adidas Terrex Swift R2 GTX trail walking shoes. These are great shoes, waterproof and with plenty of grip. However, the one problem I noticed was a tendency to get blisters and for my feet to become really sore after walking 15-20 miles on longer hikes. Finally the penny dropped and I realised that my problem lay in using thin gym socks whilst wearing the Adidas trail shoes. I did some research and found that these were the highest rated socks. I have now worn them on three long hikes and am delighted with them. My feet felt so much more cushioned throughout the hike with no foot soreness or blisters afterwards. The merino wool does a great job of wicking away moisture, even when walking in 26-28 C heat. They are easy to wash afterwards. In short, I can see why they are so highly recommended and can add myself to the list of satisfied customers and have just ordered a second pair.

I have walked so many miles and climbed many peaks wearing these socks, so comfortable, hard wearing,blister free, can't praise them enough and will be buying other pairs

Well made, study, warm and just the right amount of thickness. Also the lifetime guarantee is amazing. The only thing is that they’re slightly smaller than I expected so I’m glad I bought XL. I’m a size 10 men’s and they feel a little tight on my feet.

USED THESE FEW TIMES NOW ON HIKING TRIPS AND THEY DO WORK WELL NICE AND WARM

Buy once cry once. I work outdoors all year and darn tough are the only sock that keep my toes warm. I like this 1/4 style for wearing with shorts during summer activities

Very comfortable from the get go. Great fit. Best socks I've used and, though expensive, worth the money.

Great socks. Comfortable and hard wearing (my first pair have covered many many miles, and are still going strong)

My husband loves these socks. We have purchased them several times. They are good quality, comfortable, and long-lasting.

Two pairs of Darn Tough socks and you are set for years. Or in my case, 6 pairs. These are going on our next Camino de Santiago walk.

Son muy buenos, resistentes y cómodos. No son baratos, pero duran mucho más que cualquier otro par que haya comprado. Para talla 30 cm (12 US), tiene mejor ajuste L que XL.

履き心地も良く、満足しています。

These Darn Tough 1959-C-1023-06 Hiker 1/4 Midweight socks have become my go-to choice for staying warm and dry on cold, wet days. They pair exceptionally well with my ankle-high boots, making them perfect for muddy seasons and outdoor adventures. Even when these socks are exposed to water, they maintain their ability to keep my feet warm and comfortable. Darn Tough has truly mastered the art of crafting durable socks, and this pair is no exception. As a 255lb man, I've struggled with socks wearing down quickly, often disintegrating within a year. However, these socks have proven to be remarkably resilient. After a quick wash in cold water and a cold tumble dry, they bounce back into shape, almost like they're made of nitinol. But what sets these Darn Tough socks apart is their outstanding lifetime warranty. The confidence in their product is evident with this policy – if the socks ever break down for any reason, you can exchange the old pair for a brand new pair. I purchased three pairs of Darn Tough socks throughout 2022, and to my amazement, all of them are still in prime condition. These socks have exceeded my expectations and become the only ones I wholeheartedly recommend. In conclusion, the Darn Tough 1959-C-1023-06 Hiker 1/4 Midweight socks are a true winner. With their unbeatable performance, warm merino wool, and ability to withstand wear and tear, they are the perfect companion for cold, wet days and any outdoor activities. Add to that the impressive lifetime warranty, and you have a sock that not only keeps your feet happy but also gives you peace of mind for the long haul. Darn Tough has won me over with their exceptional quality, and I can't imagine recommending any other socks.
