The Darn Tough Men’s Vangrizzle Boot Midweight Hiking Sock (Style 1980) in Gray is a men’s boot-height hiking sock with a midweight cushion layer along the footbed — a warm, comfortable underfoot feel built for cold trail days and hard-use backcountry miles. The boot height rises mid-calf to clear the top of a mid-rise hiking boot or pac boot cuff, keeping the top edge away from the boot opening to prevent bunching or pressure points. True Seamless toe construction closes the front of the sock smoothly so there’s no seam bump across the toes during long trail days.
The knit — 61% Merino Wool, 37% Nylon, 2% Lycra Spandex — runs merino-heavy for warmth, moisture wicking, and temperature regulation through cold morning starts and sustained climbs, while the nylon percentage carries the sock through repeated boot-friction wear. The 2% Lycra Spandex keeps the cuff locked up the calf so the sock stays put across long miles. Gray is the neutral men’s outdoor colorway that pairs cleanly with every hiking kit.
Darn Tough knits every pair in Northfield, Vermont and replaces any pair that wears, tears, or develops holes under its lifetime guarantee.
