- Are these socks worth $28?
- If you hike often, yes. The merino blend, cushioning and lifetime warranty mean one pair can outlast several cheaper pairs. Casual walkers may find the price hard to justify.
- How do they compare with Darn Tough's Light Hiker?
- The Hiker Boot Midweight has more cushioning and a taller cuff, which suits stiff boots and cold weather. The Light Hiker is thinner and cooler for summer and trail runners.
- What sizes and colors are available?
- They come in men's sizes from Small through XX-Large and in several solid and striped colorways. Check the size chart, since Darn Tough sizing runs on shoe size, not sock length.
- Are they machine washable?
- Yes. Wash them inside out in warm water and tumble dry low. Skip fabric softener, which coats the wool fibers.
- What is the warranty?
- Darn Tough replaces socks that wear out under normal use, for life. You send the worn pair back and get a replacement.
- When is the best time to buy?
- Prices hold near $28 most of the year. Watch for markdowns during fall hiking sales and around the holidays, when multi-pair bundles appear.
