The Darn Tough Men’s Quarter Lightweight Running Sock (Style 1715) in Charcoal is a men’s quarter-height running sock with ultra-light knit density through the footbed — a thin, fast-drying platform for race day or anyone who wants a lighter-than-air feel. True Seamless toe construction closes the front of the sock smoothly so there’s no seam bump at the toes during high-mileage runs.
The knit — 51% Merino Wool, 45% Nylon, 4% Lycra Spandex — runs merino-forward for moisture wicking and temperature regulation across cool mornings and warm afternoons, while the nylon-and-Lycra percentages keep the sock dialed tight to the foot without slipping. The quarter height sits just above the shoe collar — the standard rise for running shoes, trail runners, and low-cut athletic shoes. Charcoal is the deep gray neutral colorway that pairs with every running kit.
Darn Tough knits every pair in Northfield, Vermont and backs them with an unconditional lifetime guarantee.
