Darn Tough 1/4" Cushion Socks

Give all your other hiking socks the boot. Merino wool is our fiber of choice for hiking, trekking and backpacking. High density terry loop padding in the foot and shin areas won't flatten out under pressure. Our socks will provide you with an unrivalled level of cushioning performance whether you're sporting approach shoes or hiking boots. High density cushioning on foot bottom. Custom shrink treated Merino Wool. Ribbing above the ankle ensures a proper fit. Reinforced heel and toe. Elastic support around the arch. Ring toe construction for a comfortable invisible seam.

Fine gauge Merino Wool makes this a fast drying and breathable “all weather” sock that stays cool in the summer and warm in the winter. And since Merino Wool is naturally antimicrobial this sock repels bacteria and odour when you’re laying down the miles.

Merino wool is a natural fabric, and is great for regulating your body temperature and heart rate due to its natural breathability and moisture-management properties. This happens easily when wearing the natural wool in comparison to a synthetic fibre.
