For years, I was a cheap-socks guy. Then, a hole in my sock made me rethink everything. My search for a solution led me to Darn Tough Socks, a Vermont company with an unconditional lifetime guarantee. Despite the $23 price tag (a shock to my system!), I bought a pair of their Quarter Midweight Hiking Socks. Over 150,000 steps later, I'm a convert. These socks are incredibly durable; I even tested them with a screwdriver! The merino wool and nylon blend keeps my feet comfortable in temperatures ranging from 50°F to 102°F. The seamless toebox and cushioned foot reduce soreness. They're heavier than cheaper socks, contributing to their resilience. The company's guarantee is legit; the editor of Guardian US's Filter has used it multiple times. Darn Tough even shared stories of socks surviving extreme conditions. These are an investment, but a worthwhile one for anyone on their feet all day.
