The Darn Tough Style 1997 Sunset Ridge sock is a micro crew built for lighter layers of cushioning. A thin layer of dense padding runs along the base of the foot for impact absorption, while the rest of the sock is knit fine-gauge so it breathes and dries fast. True Seamless toe fusion removes the typical irritating seam at the toe.
Micro crew height sits just above the ankle — tall enough to protect from boot tops, short enough to stay out of the way in low-top hikers and trail runners. The 52% nylon / 45% merino wool / 3% Lycra blend keeps the sock stretchy, fast-drying, and temperature-regulating across warm and cool weather, which is why it works as a 3-season hiking sock rather than a single-use piece.
Darn Tough is family-owned and still knits every pair at their mill in Northfield, Vermont. The lifetime guarantee covers wear, tearing, and holes — one replacement pair for life, no strings.
