Great socks with reinforced toes and heel.
I wore 3 pairs of socks walking the 490 miles on the Camino Frances. 2 pairs of smart wool and 1 pair of Darn Tough. Both pairs of smart wool socks got holes and one sock lost elastic in the ankle area. I wire mismatched Smart wool socks and threw the holy socks out. Darn tough socks held up well. I recommend Darn Tough socks that is why I purchased 2 pairs of these socks.

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.

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!

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.

Good socks, run small

Great socks, the quality is apparent as soon as I put them on BUTA they run super small. I got a medium, which the size chart says should fit 7.5 to 9.5. Im usually a 7.5 or maybe an 8. Put them on straight from the packaging and these feel just on the verge of being too tight.

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.
