No experience with their socks but, the wife and I have several pieces of their Merino wool and it's been great.
They are ok at best. The lightweight socks are pretty thin and don't offer much cushion. Probably get a few month out of them before they develope holes. I found fits socks this year and really like them
I have the lightweight and mid weight socks. Durable, breath well, and comfortable.
I bought a few pairs and didn't care for them. Some of their stuff is great, some... Not So Much! I only buy Darn tuff now and wear them daily, even here in AZ when it's 115! Best socks I have ever worn!
No experience with their socks but the merino base layers have done held up well over the last 3 years.
Started wearing darn tough socks everyday about a year ago. I love the midweight micro crew. Most days though I wear their 1/4 height lightweight with cushion in the bottom. Enough cushion to be comfortable but a good bit thinner than the midweight.
I also wear darn tough everyday. I mix them with grip 6 as well.
My son and I have a few pairs of the lighter merino wool from Black Ovis. We like them. They are not too heavy and have held up pretty well. I use them a lot of the time rather than other heavier pairs for hiking, hunting, 3D shoots etc.
I also have Darn Tough Socks….but I got these in a heavier style for more mountainous terrain and strenuous activity.
I’ve got a few pairs that have held up through some pretty intense hikes. They’re a solid choice if you’re looking for something reliable.That said, for something a bit more fun, I once got a pair of custom socks from
myfacesocks as a gag gift for my brother. I put his dog’s face on them, and he absolutely loved it! He wears them all the time, even to the office, and they always get a laugh. So, while Black Ovis is awesome for practicality, myfacesocks is perfect if you’re looking to add a personal or playful touch to your sock game.
Great socks. Buy with confidence
I am a huge darn tough sock fan. I wear them for work, fishing, hunting and all other activities.
The best thing about darn tough is I don’t think I have bought a pair of socks in about 3 years. They last for ever. It’s a little spendy to get the sock drawer full but once it is there is no need for buying any more socks.
I’ve been happy with Woolpower wear year round on our place Lewis
I wear Darn Tough socks. But not daily, they are too expensive for everyday wear.
Today they have the Kennetreks alaskan socks on sale. Next to my buffalo wool company socks they are my favorites at keeping my feet warm.
Ice Breaker, Darn Tough, Farm to Feet are my daily's. I have some Point 6's but I don't like them.
Bob,
They have a lifetime warranty. Cheapest socks a guy will ever own when you consider the warranty.
