Design has both the Turtle AND the Rabbit
Just wanted to share, since I couldn't figure it out until I bought my own pair: these socks have the red rabbit graphic on the LEFT side, AND the blue turtle graphic on the RIGHT side. I was confused by the product photos (thought the turtle and rabbet were different design options), so hopefully this clears it up for someone else looking to grab a pair. Anyways, super comfortable socks! Haven't done any serious hiking with them yet, but I've worn them for a few 10hr shifts in steel-toed boots and found them very comfortable without overheating.
Great sock
What a great feel and so comfortable to wear.
My favorites for long distance backpacking.
I love Darn Toughs and own a lot of them, from thick to thin padding for hiking, running, etc. One of the biggest causes of blisters when putting in long miles on the trail is moisture - from sweat, getting wet (how many of us have slipped when filtering water, had to hike through snow or mud, or had to do stream crossings?). I prefer these thin socks over medium hikers because they dry so quickly. Less padding doesn't bother me - that's what my shoes & insoles are for. I prefer the crew length because I like to have socks go all the way up to the top of my gaiters. As an anecdote, when on a thru-hike I met a guy at a hostel who got knocked off the trail for a week due to blisters. While there are other ways to prevent these (i.e., leukotape) switching from medium cushion hiking socks to these was how he finished the trail.
Great socks! Until they shrank to half size
Love Darn Tough products. Have several pairs. This set of socks is the only one that has ever shrunk (shrank?) in the wash. Maybe it’s the ‘micro crew’ fabric?
Very tight
These socks are very, very tight. I bought them for myself (men’s shoe size 8) and ended up having to re-home them to a friend (women’s shoe size 8). They are also very tight on her. The socks have also developed a hole along the ankle elastic after two wears.
good socks run small
Recommend size up. I’m a 9/9.5 US Men’s and the socks are smaller than I’d prefer.
Used for Running.
Used for Running. I am blown away by how functional these are. I am a sworn patriot of Darn Tough Hikers so I got these to see if the runners are good too. They are so good for cold weather. I use them in 20F degree weather regularly and my feet still sweat sometimes.
Extremely comfortable socks!!
These socks are very, very comfortable. My feet stay dry. They maintain their shape throughout the day. I have 5 pair. I highly recommend them.
meh
Most of their socks are really good, but this model ran particularly small. Make sure you get at least a size bigger
Disappointing. These socks squeeze toes together
I have hiking socks from Darn Tough that I love so I was very excited to get these. They are very tight (XL for narrow feet size 13 shoes) and squeeze my toes together really hard.
