The Darn Tough Style 1466 is a fine-gauge merino wool hiking sock with midweight cushion density running under the foot. The cushion placement is targeted — padded where weight loads through the footbed, thin everywhere else, which keeps the sock compact inside a hiking boot. True Seamless toe fusion removes the seam at the toe box that typically raises blisters on long miles.
Micro crew height sits just above the ankle for protection without bulk. The 63% merino wool / 35% nylon / 2% Lycra blend wicks sweat, dries fast, and regulates temperature across seasons, which is why this is the sock Darn Tough sells the most of — it works for hikes, day trips, workwear, and everyday rotation.
Darn Tough knits every pair at their family mill in Northfield, Vermont. Lifetime guarantee — if the sock ever fails, it gets replaced.
