The Darn Tough Men’s Hiker Boot Midweight Hiking Sock (Style 1403) in Eclipse is a men’s boot-height hiking sock with a midweight cushion layer underfoot — denser than lightweight trail socks, thinner than heavyweight winter socks — for day hikes, long approach miles, and multi-day trips inside full hiking boots. The boot-height shaft rises above the boot collar, keeping the cuff clear and preventing debris from dropping in. True Seamless toe construction closes the front of the sock smoothly so there’s no seam rubbing across long trail days.
The merino wool knit handles moisture wicking and temperature regulation through cold morning starts and warm afternoon climbs — the kind of swing that overheats synthetic-only socks and soaks cotton. The midweight cushion density adds underfoot comfort against rocky trails and packed dirt without bulking the boot fit. Eclipse is the deep blue-black colorway that pairs with every trail kit.
Darn Tough knits every pair in Northfield, Vermont and backs them with an unconditional lifetime guarantee.
