User questions & answers

Question: how to determine sock size
Answer: Shhh. Yes lol. It's best to use a filter in the tip of the blunt then roll so that it can be placed firmly in the pipe. I use it with raw cones/papers & filters.
Question: Does these socks wick really well in summer hiking, or if they are too warm? Also, if I wear a size women's size 6.5 or 7 what size should I get
Answer: I believe you can. Just place the cigarette on the end of it.
Question: I'm very sensitive to the stitching when over my toes. Can you tell me if the stitching is relatively smooth
Answer: FOREVER I ordered the on June 4th, I ordered 3 of them. I received one on 6/10/20. I was like ok so I got jipped. Ummm The other 2 came in Yesterday 7/16/20
Question: do they shrink in dryer or wash
Answer: Above ‘Add to Cart’ there is a drop down to change the quantity.

User questions & answers

Question: Are these warmer than the Mountaineering or Hunter versions
Answer: Yes, these are excellent socks. The warranty is the same where ever they are purchased
Question: How many socks do you get for the price
Answer: We recommend washing your Darn Tough socks in cold or warm water and either line or tumble drying on low to no heat. Don't be alarmed if they come out of the wash looking smaller than when they went in. Much like a pair of jeans, there is a fabric recovery period where the socks stretch out a little to fit your feet again. While standard detergent is fine, it's best to stay away from fabric softener, Oxyclean, and bleach. If your socks start to feel like they aren't as soft as they once were, it can help to wash them with a specific wool wash/detergent like Eucalan or Nikwax. Laundering inside out also helps fluff up the cushion layer which can flatten over years of use.
Question: Is there a size chart we can refer to thank you
Answer: Recommended care instructions from Darn Tough is to machine wash in warm water on gentle cycle with socks inside-out. Do not bleach. Tumble dry on low. Do not dry clean.
Question: Did anyone ruck marched with these socks, long distance? Any feedback
Answer: Large is a Men's shoe size 10-12. Here is a link to Darn Tough's size chart for reference: https://darntough.com/pages/size-chart I hope this helps!

User questions & answers

Question: Is this just one pair
Answer: These are comfortable and warmer than most ankle socks, but they are not what I'd consider a winter sock. If you're looking for real warmth, Darn Tough makes some taller, thicker, warmer socks that might be a better solution. Depending on your cold tolerance levels, these are probably good enough in the winter unless you're dealing with more than few inches of snow.
Question: Is cushion thick enough at ball & heel area? I prefer thick cushioning for added support due to feet problem
Answer: I have all three varieties. These are just as warm as the other two you mentioned. I find all the extra cushion the same ,when it comes to warmth. So if you want black, it's available only in the "Tactical" collection, which is awesome.

User questions & answers

Question: How many pairs come with the order
Answer: Yes , it is just one pair. Best socks ever really confortable. I am going to buy again.
Question: How many pairs come with the order
Answer: These definitely aren't "thin" but not overly thick by any means. Probably thicker than my Darn Tough hiking socks?
Question: how is the warranty handled
Answer: I purchased size L. My son wears a 10.5 dress shoe and 12 hiking boot. He wore them for 2 weeks. They were true to size chart, he suffered no blisters, they wore extremely well, once I washed them, they were like new. Highly recommend. I am guessing the 2x large would be size 15 shoe. That's what their chart says.
Question: what size sock to fit size 10 1/2 shoe
Answer: I wear them in sloppy felt liner Sorel boots, insulated hiking boots, or Keen lace up sneaker type shoes. I just looked over about a half dozen in response to your question and I see no discernible wear. The bottoms look like the tops. I have a dozen pairs so each pair gets used once every 12 days. Very happy with them compared to various other brands of wool socks I've bought.

User questions & answers

Question: Will these be long enough for my 11 inch meindl perfekt extreme boots
Answer: You can go to darn tough's web site. I wear W 9 shoe, and ordered M (7.5-9.5) they fit comfortably snug.I wash in cool water and no dryer to reduce shrinkage.
Question: can these socks be put in the dryer
Answer: Hi Andrea,If swelling of the ankles is a problem, you might want to give these a pass. The entire sock fits snugly. I don't find that the top is any tighter than the rest of the sock; the whole sock, however, is snug. My husband, found them a bit too close-fitting for his comfort. Hope this info is useful to you. If there are further questions, ask away.
Question: what is the difference of this pair verus the Darn tough Vermont men's hiker micro crew cushion sock?Which one is warmer in cold weather
Answer: Size Mens US Womens USSmall N/A 4 - 6.5Medium 6 - 8.5 7 - 9.5Large 9 - 11.5 10 - 12.5 X Large 12 + N/A
Question: Do you post a Sizing Chart
Answer: Actually...I don't agree. Wool has a special quality--it is breathable. If you are going to Norway in winter and your guide advised you to gear up with all wool clothing, I would take heed. I highly recommend that you do so. I have spent winters working in Antarctica and the program issues wool socks to employees because wool cannot be beat for performance in cold/wet conditions. Not only does wool breathe, if it gets wet it continues to keep you warm. So, if you sweat you won't get cold. With any other fabric that is not the case. Nothing can replace a good pair of wool socks. And Darn Tough socks are top-of-the-line wool socks. I highly recommend you get a pair (or five!) before you go to Norway for the winter. You won't regret it. (p.s. i am in no way affiliated with DT socks, i'm just a sock aficionado who knows how hard it is to find good socks).

SOCK CAPITAL OF THE WORLD

We live and work in Northfield, Vermont. Our backyard is the perfect testing ground to make the finest Premium All Weather Performance Socks. We ski, snowboard, hike, bike and run in the most unforgiving climate in the lower 48. It is under these conditions that we design, test and manufacture our socks.

STILL MADE IN VERMONT, USA

After so many decades why do we still knit every pair of our socks here in Vermont? We don’t do it because it’s the easy thing to do—we do it because it’s the right thing to do. We do it because for us, it’s the only way to do it. There are faster and cheaper alternatives but nobody ever outsourced anything for quality.

User questions & answers

Question: what is the fabric content
Answer: No.
Question: I wear size 7 medium. Should I get small or medium
Answer: I'm a big fan of air drying these socks. I own 6 pairs, wash 5 pairs at a time and place them on a line by the washing machine, by the next day, all 5 are dry and I wash pair 6. Don't want to chance placing wool in the dryer. Over 3 years now doing that technique and the socks are still in like new condition.
Question: Is there a size guide
Answer: Your question has the same 2 socks listed, so hard to answer. I'd go up to a heavier sock for cold weather though. I wear this sock in AZ year round, but use the Darn Tough Vermont Men's Merino Wool Boot Cushion Hiking Socks for cold weather and snow.
Question: It seems a size women's 7 could be a small or medium. Which one would you recommend
Answer: If you go to Darn Tough's web site you will find their size chart information. Look under customer service and you will find FAQs. One of the questions, "What size sock do you recommend?" Has the size chart you are looking for.
