FREQUENT QUESTIONS

If there is a warranty, can you send me the replacement pair before I send you mine?

Our policy is that we first need to receive the socks to examine them to understand why the problem has occurred. Our socks have an unconditional lifetime guarantee.

What is the difference between merino wool and Coolmax?

Merino wool is a durable natural fiber that keeps you cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Merino wool draws moisture away from the skin and dries quickly. Merino wool is antimicrobial, meaning you can wear your socks for days without them picking up an unpleasant odor. Coolmax is a durable artificial fiber, it is ideal for warm temperatures, Coolmax draws moisture away from the skin and dries very quickly. Coolmax is an excellent alternative for those who may not prefer wool or are allergic to wool fibres.


Are the materials in Darn Tough socks made in the USA?

All Darn Tough socks are made in Northfield, Vermont. Raw materials have been sourced globally. Which does not mean that they do not use local resources in the production of their socks. This past year they have used more merino wool, nylon and lycra from the USA than from any other country. Whether raw materials are produced in the USA depends on many factors including the availability, quality, price of these materials and the ability of local suppliers to meet Darn Tough's demands.

What is the thickest and warmest sock?

The warmest socks Darn Tough has are the heavy weight, fully cushioned socks. There are two heights, boot height and below the knee, the latter being the warmest.


Why do my socks wear out in the same place?

Everyone's foot is different, but in general, if a person has pressure points it is more likely that the sock can wear out at the pressure points.

Does Darn Tough make compression or diabetic socks?

Darn Tough does not make medical compression socks between 20-25 mmHg, however, they do make graduated light compression socks to offer graduated compression of 11-16 mmHg to help you recover faster in your most intense activities.
