Darn Tough VermontMen's Merino Wool Steely Micro Crew Cushion w/Extra Cushion Toe Socks

I am a food writer/chef and obsessed with finding the best of everything. Once I determine something is the best, i stock up on it. All of my chefs' coats are the same brand, all of my pants are from the same company, I could go on, but you get the idea.I purchased one pair of these socks and while my first pair was a size too large, they are densely woven, soft, and snug on my feet.Keep in mind that they are guaranteed for life so while it took me several months to be able to afford them, I purchased 12 pairs of these socks so now I am stocked with the best socks for years to come.

Heavy duty. Last forever. Worth the money

These socks are as comfortable as they are tough. I have tried a lot of socks looking for the one that keeps me going all day long. Can’t say enough good things about them and they outlast any other sock I have tried.

We purchased 2 pair of these as a gift for my brother. He bought me 2 pair at the same time... LOL... anyway, they are great... I tried them on when I had a cold recently and they made me feel oh so much better... may have cured my cold or at least lessened it. Now I wear them out to the garage... out to bbq and out to get the mail... I live in the country... sort of upscale country but they are perfect for going from the TV room out to BBQ or just to pop outside and not have to chase down a pair of shoes... REALLY GREAT PRODUCT and holding up very well to washing every 2 days... I like these so much, I am going to make them part of a gift pack for my neighbors next holiday season... Socks + Wine + Gingerbread cookies... Honestly, try these 1 time... wear them for at least 2 hours and you will be HOOKED !

After reading a recommendation for the Darn Tough brand online I decided to splurge on a pair of these socks for work. I've always been the type to just buy a big bag of cheap cotton socks a couple times a year and toss them as soon as they start to get holes.After receiving these socks I wore them right out of the package for a workday and ordered enough pairs for an entire week after I got home! These things are great and worth every penny. The extra cushioning helps loads with fatigue and the fabric stays dryer than the white cotton I'm used to.As an added benefit they don't trap the smell like cotton does either.If you're tough on socks, or just on your feet all day, it's worth giving a pair of these a try. I'll never go back to the big bag of cotton cheapies.

Was supposed to be over the calf, got crew

Bought these 2 pairs of socks for my husband and he said hands down best socks he has owned! Which is saying something because my husband runs through socks faster than anybody I know! My husband is on his feet all day and gets sweaty feet no matter what socks he wears, these particular socks wick away the sweat and your feet feel dry! Great product!

These socks are some of the best on the market. They are made in Vermont and they have a lifetime guarantee. What else is their to say.

Here is the extremely poor experience I had with Darn Tough socks. First I bought one of their 6 packs because you get a free pair for same price. Grabbed the LARGE because dimensions seemed right. When I tried them on, the length was correct but they were way too tight. I've never in my life seen socks this tight and I do not have diabetic swollen or fat feet. I returned them and then I tried these socks in X-LARGE. These were longer and the heel now came way above my heel. They were just as tight as the large ones. Can you believe this? This ridiculous company thinks that when you go up a size, you only have to increase the length and not the width! Absolutely UNBELIEVABLE. I had to go to the post office AGAIN to return their garbage.Keep in mind I can wear mediums of any other brand of socks I've ever tried, altho large are more comfortable.

Not stinky

I bought 4 pairs of these and within the first month got a hole in the exact same spot on all my socks. I was less than impressed with the quality of these socks.
