Darn Tough Vermont men's hiker socks, Navy, X-Large — midweight full-cushion boot-height for hiking

Darn Tough Vermont's 1933 Men's Hiker is a midweight, full-cushion hiking sock in navy, sized XL, built for long days on the trail and guaranteed for life.

Designed and knit in Vermont, this hiking sock combines dense cushioning, a mid-calf boot height, and performance fibers to manage moisture and reduce hot spots. The 1933 Hiker delivers a plush feel underfoot without excess bulk, while True Seamless construction minimizes friction at the toes. Durable materials and the brand's no-questions lifetime guarantee make these socks a dependable choice for repeat wear.

How does this sock balance cushioning and fit for long hikes?

The 1933 is midweight with full-density cushioning throughout the entire sock, giving protective padding beneath the foot and along the shin without compromising fit inside a boot. Targeted elasticity keeps the sock snug so the cushion stays where you need it and doesn’t bunch.

• Full-cushion knit across sole, heel, and shin for impact absorption.
• Midweight thickness that works with most hiking boots and shoes.
• Spandex-elastic blend for secure, non-slip fit in an XL size.

Will these socks manage sweat and odor on multi-day treks?

The fiber mix is engineered for fast wicking and quick drying to pull moisture away from skin, helping reduce blister risk and dampness. Combined with breathability from the knit structure, they keep feet drier than a standard cotton sock over extended use.

• 60% Coolmax polyester for rapid moisture transport.
• 31% nylon for durability and quick drying.
• Stretch fibers maintain contact with skin for consistent wicking.

How tough are these socks and what does the guarantee cover?

Every pair is looped and reinforced to stand up to abrasive surfaces and repeated laundering. Darn Tough’s lifetime guarantee replaces socks that develop holes or fail from normal wear — no receipts or small-print conditions required.

• Factory-knit construction in Vermont for consistent quality control.
• Guaranteed for life against holes, wear, and manufacturing defects.
• Materials chosen to resist abrasion and retain cushioning over time.

What height and sizing should I expect from the 1933 Hiker?

This is a boot-height sock sitting at mid-calf to protect your lower leg from brush and to pair with heavier footwear. The XL size provides extra length and volume for larger calves and bigger feet while maintaining the intended fit and cushion distribution.

• Boot sock / mid-calf height for added ankle and shin coverage.
• XL sizing for a roomier fit in length and circumference.
• Designed to fit inside hiking boots without slipping or bunching.
