  • The “still” in Still Made in Vermont, USA is personal. We knit all our socks at our VT-based Mills - we can't imagine it any other way.

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

Men's Fastpack Micro Crew

"These darn tough socks seem good and strong, and likely to last well. However, they are very tight on the leg above the ankle, constricting the blood flow. Taking them off in the evening, the area of my leg above the sock is swollen right up because the tight sock below has been way too tight on my leg. I tried a size larger, but the sock is still way too tight above the ankle, and I do not have fat legs."

— Patrick N. (3/5)

Darn good socks

"Fantastic fit and feel, these are now the only socks that I like to wear. I've already tested the lifetime warranty with a replacement pair sent to me, when requested. Love the variety of options of styles, weights and lengths. Nothing made to match with Darn Tough, here the UK."

— Geoffrey D. (5/5)

Brilliant socks

"Brilliant socks"

Good looking socks!

"Darn Tough make some of the best looking socks on the market. Well made and comfortable on long walks too. I wore holes in mine after a few hundred miles and they were replaced under DT’s lifetime no quibble warranty. Marvellous!"

— Steve T. (5/5)

So far so good, great

"So far so good, great quality and feel great on. Have done a couple of mountain walks and they have been brilliant."

— Paul H. (5/5)

Great spring boot socks

"Boot sock for closer fitting boots or fell running trainers on long distance. Very thin almost mesh on the top of the foot, good cushioning. A little less able to transport moisture but still better than other brands, incredibly well made"

— Darren T. (5/5)

Great strong socks

"Love these - light and comfortable and cosy"

— Tim M. (5/5)
