The Darn Tough Men’s Patriot Micro Crew Run Sock (Style 1037) in Red/Stars and Stripes is a men’s running sock with zero cushion and an ultra-thin knit that sits flush inside running shoes for a fast, light feel on race day. The micro crew height sits just above the ankle, shorter than a traditional crew, tall enough to clear a low-cut running shoe without rubbing against the collar. True Seamless toe construction closes the front of the sock smoothly so there’s no seam rubbing across long tempo sessions.
The knit — 54% Nylon, 40% Merino Wool, 6% Lycra Spandex — leans nylon for durability against repeated shoe-friction wear, while the merino percentage handles moisture wicking and temperature regulation through hot afternoon runs. The 6% Lycra Spandex keeps the cuff tight around the ankle so the sock doesn’t slip through long training blocks. The Stars and Stripes colorway runs a red base with white stars and stripes — an American flag motif for race day, 4th of July runs, or any day you want to fly the colors.
Darn Tough knits every pair in Northfield, Vermont and backs them with an unconditional lifetime guarantee.
