Description

A light hiking sock for lots of miles. Darn Tough made it for the Pacific Crest Trail, from Mexico to Canada. The sock is lightweight and fits snugly, so your shoe stays put.

Comfort that lasts on long stages. Terry loops underfoot and targeted cushioning over the ankle and Achilles absorb pressure and friction. You notice it most on day two or three of a trip, when your feet get more sensitive. The merino wool wicks moisture.

Pick this one for long hikes with a light pack. Carrying a heavy pack or want more cushioning, go for the 1466 Hiker Micro Crew. 5% of sales goes to the Pacific Crest Trail Association.

Light and durable for the long haul. Not made for winter conditions.

Why Darn Tough?

After a few hundred kilometres, many socks start to wear thin at the heel. You want a sock that stays snug, doesn't slip and simply lasts. That's exactly why we carry Darn Tough at Trail.NL.

The socks are knit in Vermont, USA, from a blend of merino wool, nylon and elastane. The range goes from ultra-thin no shows for fast runs to cushioned models for long trails and hikes, all with a close fit.

For us, Darn Tough is above all a sock you can count on: comfortable, tough and backed by the brand's own lifetime guarantee.

Yes. It comes in sizes 38 to 49.5; check the size chart to see which size fits you.

Fantastisch

Heerlijke sokken. Ik heb al jaren Darn Tough en ook de PCT mee gelopen. In Amerika is de levenslange garantie makkelijk te gebruiken ook al had ik maar 1 gaatje na ongeveer 3.000km. Een lading mee naar huis genomen. Nu heb ik eindelijk een winkel gevonden die deze sokken verkoopt! Nu hoeft mijn man niet meer de mijne te jatten.
Absolute aanrader! Begin met 1 paar als je twijfelt, daarna wil je niet meer anders.
