The Darn Tough Merino wool boot socks look like modern cotton socks while retaining the warmth and comfort of high-quality Merino wool. These socks are designed to prevent slipping, bunching, and blisters. The fine gauge knitting keeps the socks very durable without sacrificing comfort.

These socks are moisture-absorbent so they keep your feet dry during hot weather, which also makes them great for hiking, camping, and other outdoor activities. The durability of these socks will help you brave the elements in any season. They also reach halfway up the calf for better protection when wearing shorts.

There are different styles and colors you can choose from, so you might consider grabbing some for your family. Darn Tough also produces them in all sizes for a more personalized fit. You can choose to machine wash on a gentle cycle or wash by hand for a safer clean.
