Darn Tough Vermont Men's Hiker Quarter Midweight Cushion Socks (1959)

These things are fantastic. I'd been having issues with my feet getting very sweaty and unpleasant at my job where I spend the whole day on my feet and walk anywhere between 5-7 miles during a shift. After narrowing the problem down to the cheap socks I'd always worn I did some research and found a lot of people recommending Darn Tough as a possible solution and it turned out they were right. I now have multiple pairs and wear them on workdays and it's made a huge difference. I wear size 13 (US) shoes and the XL socks are an excellent fit and the cushioning on the bottom is very comfortable as well. Obviously they're a lot more expensive than your usual 12 pack of Hanes or whatever but for me they've been well worth the price. My feet feel better than they have in a long time.

These are a level above cheaper socks. Not thick, except where it counts, and won’t make you go to a bigger shoe size. Moisture wicking, well constructed, and supremely comfy. Warm, without being hot in the summer. Excellent hiking socks, and clear mid-height boots. Look good with shoes, as well. Not slippery. Sizing as expected per the size chart. May run a tiny bit large, so if you’re debating between sizes, go down in size. Expensive, but these deliver, “you get what you pay for,” in spades.

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.

Super comfy hiking socks! I've been using smartwool socks for a while but honestly these are way better. The breathability of these socks is amazing and they keep my feet cool even on these hotter 90 degree days! These very well become my new main pair of hiking socks and I highly recommend them!

I wear a size 13 shoe. The XL fit perfect. They feel great on my feet.

A very soft and comfortable sock. I would buy more but they are too expensive.

I must say, I never thought of socks. Why would I? Sure! I've worked as a firefighter, paramedic, physician assistant on my feet all day, but socks are socks after all right? Of course I loved hiking, going up mountains and hills and through streams. But cloth is cloth and sure it's important to have clean dry feet for many reasons including to prevent infection and skin breakdown, but my socks before were adequate. This is what I thought probably 5 years ago or more. Since I then bought my first pair of Darn Tough socks, life has just been better. Sure, part of it was due to a career change and my first marriage which has been very happy and exciting yet peaceful. But the unsung hero of my travels has been that, with the exception of when I'm performing music and have to wear a tuxedo or a suit, all I wear during other activities are my Darn Tough socks. I have low ankle socks, I have higher longer socks. I have ones that are well padded, ones that I've treated with permethrin for when I do international hiking, and others that I'll wear with my work boots or for special activities. Some I work in the lawn while wearing, others while traversing up a large granite mountain. But regardless of the situation or what type of Darn Tough sock I'm wearing, my feet are always safe, padded, well protected and dry quickly if exposed to water. With the exception of one pair of socks that I purchased due to the aforementioned musical performances that I engage in ever so rarely, the rest of my fleet of socks all come from. Darn Tough. It's just a matter of what pair I wish to wear that day and that moment, what job there is to be done. I think it's safe to say that this company has outstanding quality control as I've not had to deal with hardly anything and the only sock that I had to get rid of was due to a momentarily particularly aggressive African Gray parrot, who must have felt that the resting pair of socks had insulted its mother and decided to produce a large hole in them while mimicking barking like a dog. He's an African Gray: if you know the parrot species, you'll understand. If you don't know the species then what I just said makes no sense, but trust me, it makes sense. I cannot recommend these highly enough and as long as the company stays in business, I will stay loyal customer without a doubt. I have bought several different product lines of theirs and all have had excellent quality control and longevity, so I assume their entire brand offerings are probably the same in high quality. I chose not to add a picture of the socks originally, since I assume anyone reading this review (you poor individual... there has to be something better you can be doing with your time, yes? Just trust me and by the socks and then get on with your day, people need you) are familiar with how socks tend to look. But if you do wonder while you wander, the socks look as they do in the description the company has provided. However, after some thought, the possibility that one of my pictures could end up on the top of the Amazon review for this item was just too sweet, too enticing for me to pass up. It also allowed me to burn even further time and stay unproductive for even longer, a win-win if there ever was one. Pictured: two several years old pair of Darn Tough tough socks of different styles, and an amateur (ham) radio to show how adventurous I must be. My best regards to any and all who have read this review, and I apologize for using your time in such a poor manner. Hopefully at least someone benefits from it, which will make it all worthwhile. Meanwhile I have succeeded in not only speaking highly about a product that I fully support and love to wear, but I've also succeeded in putting off work that I should have been doing on my house by an additional 15 minutes. So either way you look at this review, for me it was a success.

My hubby loves them. Pretty much all he wears! They stay put rather than falling underneath his foot! They are thick but not too thick so your shoe is too tight. He also likes the color selection. Will definitely buy again!

本当にしっかりした製品でした。

These socks whilst not as thick as the Darn Tough work-boot socks fit well. For those of us with fat calf muscles, it saves having to cut down the sides to prevent said calf being strangled by the top of the socks. The thinner material obviously takes up less room and feels more like the rest of my socks room-wise in my boots. Longevity would be affected I'm sure, but that lifetime guarantee saves on replacement costs. And just like the other Darn Tough socks I have bought, they must have some sort of odour eating ability as they hardly smell at all after a days work.

شريته لاني تعبت من الشرابات اللي شريتها كانت تتلف بسرعة، وأيضاً عليه مدح ويقال انه يدوم لفترة طويلة بدون ان يتلف. بعد التجربة لمدة شهرين تقريباً أيقنت انه افضل شراب تلبسه ولا يوجد له منافس، مريح وتحس انك لابس شيء فعلاً ذو جودة عالية، شريت 3 أزواج آخرين رغم أنه غالي مقارنة بالجوارب الأخرى لكن بتضمن انه بيدوم معك فترة طويلة جداً تصل لسنوات، لذلك اشتريه وانت مرتاح البال.

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.

Excellent hiking socks! They fit perfectly, offer great cushioning, and keep my feet dry and comfortable all day long. Darn Tough never disappoints, and the seller (Dearborn Supply) delivered everything quickly and as expected. Highly recommend!
