Darn Tough Cool Max Boot Full Cushion Socks - Men's

Full-grain leather boots don't breathe well, so these socks are a godsend with how good they are at odor control and sweat wicking. This is especially true in the summer; they are surprisingly good at keeping your feet from feeling overheated despite the heavier wool construction. They're comfortable, too. I've spent up to 10 hours a day wearing these socks with my boots and not once did my feet feel sore or blister by the end. Because of how thick they are, you might need to size up by 1/2 in whatever shoes you might wear with these, but from my experience I have had no trouble wearing the same size boots. My only gripe is that the toe box often feels a little tight after a long time of walking, but if you pull it away from the toes by an eighth of an inch or so the problem basically disappears. With the lifetime warranty, these are pretty much the only socks I'll ever need for doing work and outdoor recreation.

These are my favorite pair of socks.They are pricey for a single pair of socks, but worth it for special occasions.I use them for hiking, hunting, riding dual sports, and anything that requires I wear a boot.Merino wool seems like magic. If you don’t know what it is, give it a Google.These socks keep my feet warm, but somehow, even if it’s hot, my feet don’t sweat much more than a regular pair of socks. Wild that they keep you warm, yet are so breathable. Merino wool is truly the best base layer for all clothing.These socks are durable and thick enough to protect your feet and ankles. I had ankle surgery years ago and often have discomfort with shoes rubbing the back of my Achilles. These remove that discomfort.I bought my dad a pair of these for hunting season.I will be buying more of these socks.Do NOT cheap out on socks when you are participating in activities that require a great deal of walking / running / foot “trauma”.You won’t be disappointed with these socks.

These are the most comfortable socks I’ve ever worn in my lifeThey are absolutely fabulous,At the end of the day, I don’t even wanna take my boots off. They really are that comfortable.For those who have a concern about wool being itchy, these are not, not one bitEven my wife loves them and she is allergic to wool and she can even wear themI only have three pairs so far I have to hide them on her.Who Ever thought I’d be writing a review on socks, but there you have it. people deserve to knowFabulous, expensive, yesWith every penny, yes

These are without question the FINEST socks i've ever owned. I read the reviews...i questioned the hype and bold statements. Everything they said, just like the stories of the Jedi, are true. ALL of them. I am a clean freak. Wear a pair of socks, in the hamper they go. Why? Because they smell like dirty socks. I read these insane claims that you could get a couple of wears out of them. *gasp!!* Ok...i'll buy it for a dollar...i'm going to test this out. So I did. Mother. Of. God. No waaaaaaaay. Yep, it's true. You can wear these all day, hang them up and wear them again and guess what? Smell like clean socks. This blew my mind apart. Sooooo...tried a second and third wear. (Yes i was slightly grossed out by this) Again...smelled like clean socks at the end of the day. Yes...for science...i even tried a 4th wear. Ever sooooooo slight hint of gaminess and the experiment ended there. Seriously...it's no joke.As for the fit/finish/feel of these socks...i wore them once and donated all my other pairs of thick socks. I even ordered Darn Tough running socks because I have become something i NEVER thought would be possible...i am now officially...a sock snob. These are simply amazing and feel magical. They have great cushioning and my feet have never felt so good. I bought about a dozen pairs because that's what i do and some might say...um...you bought $200 worth of socks? Yep, and i'd do it again. However...that's not going to have to happen because these have a lifetime warranty AND I have literally tried to destroy them from use and wear and they are flawless.Oh...they said don't put them in the dryer and let them hang dry...pfffffffft. I've baked the living hell out of them in the dryer and no signs of wear or fuzzies or anything. They are worth the investment. End of story. Believe the hype, believe the stories, believe your feet.

Won’t buy any other socks after wearing these!!!! Comfortable, self wicking and still looks and feels like new! Their guarantee is worth the purchase!!!!!

1st pair. Great socks. Been wearing them through the winter on many outdoor hikes. If I stay walking they keep my feet the perfect temperature and wick away any moisture. Even when they get damp my feet stay comfortable until I get home. They also fit my feet very well and don’t slide around, bunch up, or even smell very much from sweat. The other day I was hiking through snow and then had to stop for a long while, my feet became very cold while stationary, (so they aren’t magic insulation) but within 5 minutes of walking again they warmed right back up and kept me going for hours. I’m looking forward to seeing how they perform in warmer temperatures. When I put these socks on I mean business. Happy they have a lifetime warranty because I will always want to own socks like this.

I wear an 8 in men’s, and M was too big. Great socks, but please learn from my mistake. Check the wool content on the pairs you buy. Go for the high % merino wool. Some socks have little or no wool. Read the fine print. Ultimately, you’re paying for the wool%. That’s what you want. Lifetime returns, but you must pay for shipping g to send to their warehouse in Vermont now. So make it count, send at least 3 pairs at a time probably and get new ones every few years or so. Blessings!
