Thermoregulation for Any Climate, Any Job

The wrong combination of work sock and work boot does not go unnoticed. We produce socks with a high-density knit that make them virtually indestructible, knit with three simple ingredients of Merino Wool, Nylon, and Lycra®, making them the most versatile socks for all environments. Wool has a natural crimp that creates pockets of insulation, while also venting the moisture it absorbs to leave you feeling dry. You stay warm while avoiding sweaty feet and remain cool through natural venting. Wool is amazing.

Awesome socks

"Darn tough are great socks! Our whole family loves them. Amazing how well they wear even for my husband who can wear a whole in a normal pair of socks in a 2-3 months but Darn tough will last 8-10 months! Darn tough warranty is awesome! You send a pair in with holes and you immediately get allowance for a new pair!! I tell everyone about Darn Tough Socks!!!’"

I'm wearing a pair right

"I'm wearing a pair right now and have been using them with my work boots. I love the comfort, so soft, and as the weather is turning, they keep my feet nice and warm. I'm sure they will last many years and I will still enjoy them just as much."

— Randy Y. (5/5)

Darn tough for a reason

"These socks are the first ones I grab as soon as they hit the sock drawer after a wash. They feel great before during and after my 10 hour shift on my feet and they don’t feel drenched in sweat when the job is done. They even show zero signs of wear. I’ll definitely be getting more soon."

— Christian M. (5/5)

SIZE

"The sock is awesome! Perfect for a work sock! Perfect for all seasons! Plenty of padding! The only thing I would strongly advise, is that, before you purchase, measure your foot as if measuring for a shoe size. And that size would be your corresponding sock size. Do not buy socks according to the shoe size that you wear. If you do, the socks will be too big and the cushioning in the socks will be misaligned with your feet."

— Charles I. (5/5)

No faults

"Did I NEED new socks? No Did I WANT new socks? Sort of Am I GLAD I got new socks? ABSOLUTELY! Perfect weight, not too thick. Light cushioning. Not too much compression. All day comfort."

— donald p. (5/5)

These are the only socks

"These are the only socks I wear they are great quality and Darn Tough stands behind every pair they sell. Due to wearing boots my big toe would always put holes in my socks but several years ago I tried a pair of these socks and they hold up great."

— Gerald A. (5/5)

Darn Better! (than what I used to wear)

"These socks look good and feel better. The color matches most of my wardrobe and shoes (I wear sandals 80% of the time, so a lot of the sock shows). Much better than the heavy grade wool socks I used to wear."

— P W. (5/5)

Whether you like to make a statement or just need some reliable everyday work sock, Darn Tough has the colors and options to get you what you need. And I can't state it enough that I love how long lasting they are! The lifetime warranty is fantastic too. These socks are really worth every penny. This particular pair are great everyday go to for comfort and long lasting work sock. Thank you Darn Tough for making and providing a great product I am proud to share with others."

Q&A

What size sock if man's shoe size is 9
A men's size 9 would fit well into a Medium which is knit to fit size 8 - 9.5!
What is the difference between the John Henry and the William Jarvis socks?
Hi Jody! The main difference between these two styles is the cushioning. The William Jarvis style is full cushion socks feature terry loop padding from toe to cuff for maximum comfort and protection in boots and the John Henry is features terry loop cushion underfoot, over the ankle, and in the leg for strategic protection against boot lace pressure.
What’s the biggest difference between the steely and the John Henry??
Hi Haydon! The John Henry style has terry loop cushioning underfoot, over the ankle, and in the leg for strategic protection against boot lace pressure where as the steely socks have soft terry loops underfoot and around the leg, plus a fully cushioned toe box to pair with steel toe boots.

I wear a size 12 EW Wellington boot. I want the socks above the boot and not falling down. What size do you recommend?
Hi Mark, our Large ranges from 10-12. Due to the snug, performance fit of our socks some customers with wide feet, who also fall on the upper end of a size run, do find the next size up to be most comfortable.
