Love these socks so much love the fun and cool styles they offer I will for sure throw away all my old socks eventually once I get enough pairs of darn tough socks where I don’t have to wash a pair ever couple days or so even though they don’t smell after wearing the, for several days or any sweat I still like tomwear a nice fresh pair.

These socks are so awesome, and all the kids at school admire the sasquash design! Great comfort, nice cushion, and are hands down the best socks ever! Thanks for the warranty program, we have a large family and are slowly switching out our socks to be all Darn Tough!

Great socks! Perfect fit and long wear. The micro crew has become my daily go to during warmer weather. On cold days I enjoy my hiker (boot height) socks.

Very nice, the birthday recipient liked them. Fun for a guy without being too cutesy.

These socks have a fun design and are very comfortable to use when hiking. They will do a good job of keeping your feet when you are sick.
These socks do a very good job of regulating the heat of your feet even around the house!

These socks were a gift to my nephew. I havent worn them, but he loves them!

The colors are dull, compared to the website. This is not a deal breaker, as they may have used a bright light to photograph the product. All socks are thick, well manufactured, and has a beautiful design. A few loose threads, but with a lifetime warranty, I am not worried.
Dean W –
These are great comfy socks. I really like the design.
Jeremy K –
I like toasty toes, but I have sweaty feet (it’s true) and I’ve never had a sock be able to keep my feet warm but not eventually have them be super sweaty. I’m very impressed with these socks! Plus the cushion is super comfy and the graphics are very fun. Hope they do even more silly designs!
Stephen G –
Lovely and great design
Jason M –
Best quality on the market. I love merino wool but not from China. USA or New Zealand.
Lee L –
These fit well, but are saved for the summer. I’m glad to get them for Christmas as I love Darn Tough Socks. We are purging all other socks as they cannot hold a candle to these.

my goto in socks. a little tight first wear but the mold to the foot size well. dig the the theme and color combo. wish they where cheaper but totally get it why they are not.
Allison R –
Bought this for my husband and he promptly went and ordered five more pairs for himself.

Where else can you find a unique design
Susan R –
I love freaky little guys and high-quality wool socks. So these are a win/win. Never stop making quirky patterns in high-quality wool. They make me smile.
Paul P –
Life is to short for cheap socks.
Derek D –
Great socks
Allison R –
Bought this for my husband. Within two hours of trying them on, he had created his own online account and ordered like six more. Today is my birthday, and I’m guessing there will be another order stashed away for me to open today – probably with more in there for himself, too.

Can’t review this highly enough. My feet typically sweat a lot and are always very hot in cotton, but Darn Tough socks are seriously magic. My feet don’t sweat anymore, and they’re warm in the winter, and even in the summer they aren’t too hot (though you’re better of with the lightweight runners for hot weather). One catch is I would definitely recommend the cushioned styles; I didn’t like the one I tried without cushion. DT quickly replaced my non-cushioned sock with a model I liked though. I recommend them to all my friends.
Brian M –
Once again Darn Tough socks exceed my expectations!
John B –
I am thrilled to rock these new Midweight encounters. I love a more padded toe to heal bed for that extra cushion in longer runs and hikes in the cooler winter temps.
Katie S –
These socks are same great quality and design that I’ve come to know and expect from Darn Tough. They hold up exceedingly well through countless wash and wears. I keep coming back to the Micro Crew Midweights time and time again.

Ordering off the website and the shipping process went very smooth. I started with one pair Darn Tough socks (gifted to me) and have now purchased several other pairs. I know that they are a bit more expensive then other socks, but their comfort, durability and odor control are wonderful. I followed a friends advise and I wear them daily and only wash them once a week – weird but it works. The styles like “Close Encounters” and “Number 2, with the rocket-outhouse” are entertaining and spice up a typically dull clothing item.

I purchased these for a gift and the recipient gave them a 10/10! He said most comfy socks he’s ever worn.
