Great running socks!
I bought these socks a year ago for a 5k run. They fit very comfortably. I usually get blisters on the back of my heel when I run, but I didn’t with these socks! The cushioning is lightweight, but still protective. These socks are moisture wicking and air dry very easily. The best part is that Darn Tough socks are guarantee for life, so it’s a great value for money when it comes to not having to constantly replace running socks!! I will be buying more in the future.

Great, compressive workout socks
I didn’t know what to expect when they stated “merino wool”. I thought they’d be heavy and itchy. They are almost like compression ankle socks. They fit snug and are thin, but durable. Your feet won’t get hot in them. Great for working out.

Just what I was looking for!
Just what I was hoping for! My skin is very sensitive on my feet so I needed something that would be soft against my skin and protect my heels. These do the trick! The heel is high enough so that my running shoes don’t rub on my skin. Fantastic socks!

Best socks ever
These are the absolute best socks ever. Wish they came in more colors than just these two (for the shorties), but they never lose shape, stretch well, wash well, and they really are darn tough!

Quality performance socks
My wife bought a couple pairs of these for a three week hike on the ‘Camino’ in France this spring. She will be carrying and living out of her pack and staying in local ‘auberges’ on the path. Cotton based athletic socks tend to get damp and bunch up or wrinkle after a few hours hiking. As well they are slow to dry after being ‘hand washed’ in the evenings. Given limited pack space she will only carry a couple pairs of socks. These socks look like they will be ideal. They are somewhat thinner and have enough lycra(?) in them that they are supportive and retain their shape. They dry quickly. She has been training with them for a few weeks now and is confident they are going to keep her feet comfortable and healthy on the ‘way’ this spring. They are a bit expensive for a pair of socks but they appear to be a quality piece of performance apparel.

These socks are legit
I have been doing a lot of long distance trail running this summer and was blowing holes in my socks like crazy; like seriously almost a pair of running socks per run. My brother recommended I try these Darn Tough socks and dang-they are in fact darn tough!! I’ve been on five runs in this pair already and they have zero spots of fading or thinning. Yes, these socks are expensive, but totally worth it for their durability and longevity. On top of that, they are very comfortable and are form fitting, so there is no slippage. And nothing beats wool! I’m very happy with these socks; so much so that they will go on my Christmas wish list! Ha!

Good summer socks
Darn tough socks are my family’s favorite socks. Such high quality with a lifetime guarantee! Can’t beat that! This pair has been ideal for hot summers! The moisture wicking and quick drying properties of the merino wool are ideal for whatever situation I’ve found myself in from hiking to farm work to shopping all day! Great socks!

Not for wide feet
My toes feel smushed. They’re tight for wide feet. I love how thin and cool they are.

Beste Socken mit lebenslanger Garantie
Dass diese Socken vom Hersteller mit einer lebenslangen Garantie daherkommen, ist das Eine. Noch viel wichtiger für ein blasenfreies Wandervergnügen ist jedoch, dass Socken, Fuß und Schuh zusammenpassen! Trotz gut eingelaufener Schuhe, Fußpflege und Hirschtalg bekomme ich mitunter nach etwa 30 km Blasen seitlich an den Zehenspitzen. Grund dafür sind die angekettelten Spitzen - genau an dem Punkt an den Großzehen bzw. kleinen Zehen bilden sich gern Scheuerstellen, die nicht abgetapt dann zu Blasen werden. Trotz breiter Zehenbox in meinen Trailrunners und Wanderschuhen. Ob mit oder ohne Einlagen. Eine Möglichkeit, ist Zehensocken als Liner unter diesen Socken zu tragen. Oder, wie jetzt im Sommer, nur diese Socken zu verwenden. Seitdem laufe ich blasenfrei und kann auch längere Touren wieder genießen: + dank Merino-Anteil hält die Geruchsbildung sich in Grenzen, + es verrutscht nichts, so dass keine Blasen durch Reibung entstehen, + die Verarbeitung ist wirklich gut, + die Farben sind wie abgebildet, + Handwäsche mit Shampoo reicht aus, um wieder 'frische Socken' zu haben, + das Material trocknet schnell, + sie laufen beim Waschen nicht ein (Merino-Kunstfaser-Mix), + scheuert das weiche Bündchen nicht und + diese Socken sind so gemütlich, dass ich sie gern trage - sommers wie winters. Die Socken fallen größengerecht aus und sind es wirklich wert, einmal auszuprobieren, wenn man seitlich an den Zehen und Ballen zu Blasenbildung neigt. Da ich nur Bewertungen zu selbst gekauften Artikeln schreibe, von denen ich überzeugt bin, kann ich hier ruhigen Gewissens eine Kaufempfehlung mit fünf von fünf blasenfreie Sternen geben! Mein T I P P : Wenn Du zwischen zwei Größen liegst, nimm bei Wander- oder Trailrunningsocken immer die Kleineren. Oder kaufe am Besten gleich eine Nummer kleiner, damit die Socken wie eine zweite Haus eng am Fuß sitzen!

Great socks, so thin, stay up
Great socks. Nice and thin.

Misleading description. You get just one pair!
Lovely socks. However, description states 'pack of 2' Surely this means 2 pairs? Apparently not! You get 2 in the pack; one for each foot! Oh well, I'll just have to enjoy my single pair of expensive but very nice socks!
