Merino Wool Advantage of Reducing Odors
My wife wore them on a trip to Turkey, recently, because they are made of Merino wool, you can wear them multiple days without them smelling.
Nice socks!
These socks are nice! I ordered them just to fill out an order so I would not have to pay shipping, but I would buy them again if I just needed socks. The are soft, snug but not tight, and don't have any annoying seams. Plus, the color is great.
Sikly smooth, no blisters
I have a pair of running shoes that is on the tighter side. I needed a pair of slim, but still blister-resistant socks. The Darn Tough Women's Run Quarter Ultra-Lightweight Cushion Socks are perfect! The name says it all. Wore them today for the first time for four hours. No hot spots! No blisters! Silky smooth and comfortable. I need a few more pairs! Thank you!
Love them
These are my year-round hiking sock. Great at temperature regulation, stay in place, no blisters. I take them on all my backpacking trips. Have them in this height and the crew. Love them!
initially great!
I was excited to get these, I splurged on these for once…but they pilled after using one time for two hours at a store. They are cushioned and breathable and good quality feeling at first. Kind of regretting purchasing.
favorite socks ever
I love darn tough but have never tried the lightweight version. They’re the best! So comfy, airy, good quality, and cute!
Comfy but they smell!!
These socks are super comfy, seem somewhat temperature regulating so far on the 2 hikes I’ve used them on, but I got them for backpacking because the wool is advertised to not hold on to smell. So far they have smelled very bad, much worse than my cotton socks, after wearing for just a few hours. Not sure if I’m doing something wrong, but I’ve washed them in mild detergent, air dried, and am disappointed that they aren’t performing for the reason I bought them so far.
Develop holes on inside of foot area
I love Darn Tough socks and loved the feel of these. Unfortunately, all four pairs developed a large hole on the inside of my foot. It is clearly a weak area in the design. Disappointing given how expensive they are.
i'm pretty picky about sock fit (specifically the toe box and heel) and these are awesome. super comfy, no blisters during hikes or sweaty two hour runs. i plan on buying a couple more pairs and making these my default spring-summer-fall socks.
Darn Tough Are the Best!
Once I tried Darn Tough running socks a few years ago, they're all I buy. These are the perfect ones for me; the length is perfect, not too low and not too high. And they're thin yet protective enough for even my long runs.
