FAQs

Are these socks suitable for everyday wear?

Yes, while designed for performance hiking, their comfort and durability make them excellent for everyday wear, especially in cooler weather or for those who are on their feet a lot.

How do I know what size to order?

Darn Tough socks are sized based on shoe size. Consult the brand's sizing chart on their website or product page for precise recommendations.

Can I wear these socks in hot weather?

These are midweight socks. While Merino Wool is breathable and moisture-wicking, they may be warmer than a lightweight or ultralight sock in extreme heat. For very hot conditions, consider a lighter weight Darn Tough model.

What is the warranty on these socks?

Darn Tough Vermont offers an unconditional lifetime guarantee on all their socks. If you aren't completely satisfied, they will replace them, no questions asked.

Do Merino Wool socks shrink?

Merino Wool can shrink if exposed to high heat during washing or drying. Following the recommended cold wash and low/no heat dry instructions will prevent shrinkage.

How does the Merino Wool help with odor?

Merino Wool has natural antimicrobial properties that significantly reduce odor-causing bacteria, allowing you to wear the socks for extended periods without developing unpleasant smells.

Troubleshooting

Socks feel too tight or loose

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Refer to the sizing guide. A proper fit is crucial for performance and comfort.

Pilling or wear after initial use

Some initial pilling can occur with Merino Wool. Check for friction points with footwear. If significant wear is present, contact customer support regarding the warranty.

Reduced elasticity after washing

Avoid high heat drying. Ensure you are not using fabric softeners. Air drying or tumble drying on low heat typically preserves elasticity.
