The Darn Tough Women's Coolmax Hiker Micro Crew Midweight Hiking Sock in Glacier is the sock you grab when the Texas trail is cooking. It's a cushioned micro crew built from Coolmax synthetic yarn instead of merino, so it pulls sweat off your skin and dries fast on long, hot hikes. If you've been asking "what's the best hiking sock for summer?", start here.
It's vegan (no wool at all) and knit at Darn Tough's mills in Vermont, then backed by their famous lifetime guarantee.
Why we love it
Merino is great, but some days you want something that dries faster. Coolmax moves moisture out, and terry-loop cushion underfoot takes the sting out of rocky Hill Country miles. The performance fit stays put, so you don't get the slipping and bunching that leads to blisters. A seamless toe means nothing rubs at mile ten.
Great for
- Summer day hikes and humid-weather trail runs that turn into hikes
- Hikers who run hot or want a wool-free, vegan sock
- Low hiking shoes and trail runners (it shows about 5" above the shoe)
- Travel, since it dries fast after a sink wash
Features
- Coolmax yarns pull moisture away so your feet stay drier
- Midweight terry cushion underfoot, plus a padded Achilles and ankle
- True Seamless toe, so nothing rubs
