  • A sock to last a lifetime

    When you’re walking long-distances, the difference between a good hiking sock and a bad hiking sock can really make or break your hike. Darn Tough know this, and specialise in extremely tough, form-fitting, hiking socks for this very reason. The Hiker ¼ Midweight Cushioned sock, for instance, features Darn Tough’s iconic performance trail fit which means no bunching, no slipping, and no blisters on your next outdoor adventure. They also offer side vents for superior breathability on the trail, soft terry loops underfoot and targeted protection over the ankle and Achilles to ensure the safest hike possible. At roughly 14 cm from the heel to cuff, you can expect them to show about 8 cm above a low hiking shoe. Perhaps our favourite feature, however, is Darn Tough’s use of that all-powerful, all-natural Merino Wool. Moisture wicking, anti bacterial, breathable, and temperature regulating; Merino Wool is ultra-durable and should keep your feet fit and fresh all season round.
