Description

Light cushioning in a quarter sock. There's just enough extra material underfoot to make hard ground feel softer. On long runs over gravel paths and paved sections your soles get sore less quickly.

The cuff doesn't collapse. It stays upright around your ankle, so pebbles and sand get less of a chance. On loose ground and descents the sock stays in place.

Merino wool wicks moisture. Your feet stay drier, even when you heat up on climbs or on summer days, which lowers the chance of blisters.

Choose the 1048 for long trail runs with some comfort underfoot. Want it as thin as possible? Go for the 1044 without cushioning.

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.

Stevige sokken

Ondanks de naam ultra-lightweight, zijn het erg stevige sokken. De zool is comfortabel met de merino kussentjes. Maar ze zijn wel knellend strak rond de enkel, misschien is dat juist de bedoeling, maar voor mij persoonlijk is dat té.
