Description

Made for long hours of running. This micro crew running sock feels sturdy and comfortable without feeling heavy, especially in trail shoes or roomier running shoes. The height provides just a little extra protection against dust, pebbles, and chafing shoe edges.

More rest for tired feet. The cushioning underfoot absorbs hard impact from rocky trails, gravel, and long descents without completely cutting off contact with the ground. Especially during ultras or long training runs, you will notice that your feet stay feeling fresh for longer.

Remains stable during intense exertion. The fit prevents sliding and creasing inside the shoe, even when feet get warm or swell slightly. The merino wool helps wick away moisture and heat, making the sock feel less clammy during long climbs or summer runs.

Choose this sock if you value comfort and durability more than an ultra-thin racing feel. Not if you mainly do short, fast runs on flat asphalt.

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.
