Description

A sturdy micro crew for long days on foot. It has full cushioning underfoot and sits just above the shoe collar. It feels noticeably thicker than a lightweight hiking sock.

You notice the difference when your feet get tired. On rocks, roots and hard paths the cushioning absorbs the impact. Especially in the last hours of a long hike or trek, pressure points stay calmer.

Warmer than a light sock. The merino wool keeps your feet warm on cold mornings and moves moisture away when you're working hard on a climb. If you mostly hike in summer in low shoes, the lighter 1972 Light Hiker is a better choice.

A sturdy all-rounder for mountains and multi-day trips. Not for hot summer days.

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.
