We will put it bluntly - YES! Darn Tough is well known for its lifetime guarantee. If their socks wear out, develop holes, or fail through normal use, they can usually be replaced through the brand’s warranty process.

A huge yes from our side, especially if you want socks that last. They cost more than basic socks, but the durability, comfort, Merino wool performance and lifetime guarantee make them strong value over time.

Darn Tough socks are generally designed to hold their shape well with their tightly-knit design, but they should be washed and dried according to the care instructions. For best results, wash in warm water and avoid high heat when drying.

Yes. Darn Tough hiking socks are a popular choice because they offer cushioning, moisture control, breathability and a secure fit. Their Merino wool helps regulate temperature and reduce odour on long walks or multi-day trips. A slightly obvious statement - we normally recommend the Hike range from Darn Tough for this, however - the run products can double as great ultralight hiking socks for warmer climates like the camino or asia for example.

Darn Tough socks are made in Vermont, USA. The brand is known for manufacturing its socks locally rather than outsourcing production, and they operate out of the same mills - called Cabot Hosiery Mills Inc.
