What are the Yarn Goblin Micro Crew Lightweight Hiking Socks?
They're exceptionally comfortable and durable technical hiking socks that are decorated with a fun, charming Yarn Goblin (named after one of Darn Tough's mill workers) to boost your mood no matter how tough the trail! Who says hiking socks have to be boring?
What are they made from?
They're made of soft merino wool blended with nylon and Lycra Spandex® to create the perfect all-round material that offers both durability and functionality.
Merino wool is known for its natural odour resistance and moisture-wicking properties, so no matter what shoes you wear, you won't have to put up with clammy, sweaty feet throughout the day. It's highly breathable, promoting temperature regulation to suit any season and low in weight and bulk for comfort. The natural odour resistance means these socks are suitable to be worn for multiple days between washes without worrying about offending your campmates, making them the perfect choice for multi-day adventures!
What are their features?
These spooky socks are created in an easy-to-wear micro crew design and are around 8.5 inches from the heel to the cuff. Their performance fit helps prevent them from slipping down your feet or bunching under your shoes while hiking, trekking, or even running for the bus.
Incredibly comfortable, they're lightly cushioned with versatile terry loop cushioning, providing padding over the ankle and Achilles for lasting comfort on longer days and tough miles.
In true Darn Tough style, these lovely socks are still made at their VT-based Mills (Vermont, USA), honouring their brand heritage and ensuring traditional, ethical practices within their manufacturing process.
