Best Pair Yet!
This was the best art yet. Nessie? Bigfoot and an alien having a beer? On one sock? And the color scheme is pretty dang good too!

My Go-To Socks for Hiking and Everyday Wear
Yes , I recommend this product
These socks are exactly what I want in a hiking sock, and they’re great for everyday use too. They’re warm when I need them to be, but they’ve never felt too hot or uncomfortable. I like these more than the Darn Tough Element Crew Socks because they’re more comfortable and fit my feet better. And when I want more cushion than the Darn Tough Stride Micro Crew Ultra-Lightweight Running Sock provides, these Micro Crew Midweight Hiking Socks are my go-to. They’re the kind of hiking sock I can forget about once I’m on the trail, which makes them an easy recommendation.

Monsters Give Your Shorts Season Some Character
Yes , I recommend this product
Durable, comfortable, quality socks. Comfortable in temperate weather and still usable when it gets hotter (though perhaps not first choice for really hot weather). No hot spots so far, even on some steep hikes in the sun.

Love the Designs on these Socks!
Yes , I recommend this product
Love the designs on these socks! I appreciate how they don't bunch up in the toe of my boots when doing a lot of downhill hiking. The micro crew length is the right height for my hiking boots but still keep my calf cool in the warmer temps.

Extremely well-made!
I put these on into a test run around the house and man are they comfortable! The extra padding at the bottom sure is gonna help go a long way on my hikes. And Sasquatch drinking a beer with an alien was funny as heck!,,

Great socks
Bought these for my sons, they love the socks, but when arrived they looked like they have been ripped out of the packaging.
