What are the Run No Show Ultra-light socks?The Run Ultralight sock from Darn Tough is possibly the lightest padded running sock that we have ever come across. The Run No Show Ultra-light has been stripped from all but the essential cushioning to make it super breathable and lightweight for use in hot and demanding conditions. Alternatively, it makes the perfect everyday trainer sock as when your shoes are on, the sock is gone! We have been using these socks for a while now and I have to say that they are the best sock brand I have ever used in over 30 years.
Despite the slightly cheesy, and very long, name these socks are amazing! What makes the Darn Tough socks so different and so durable is the way they are constructed. They are made with an incredibly high stitch count which gives them superb durability and comfort; this is how Darn Tough has managed to offer a lifetime guarantee on every sock which states:
“If our socks are not the most comfortable, durable and best fitting socks you have ever owned, return them for another pair, or your money back. No strings. No conditions. For life.”
What are they made of?These sublime socks are made from a mixture of 54% Merino wool, 41% Nylon and 5% Lycra. The fine gauge knitting makes this sock a true work horse that is supremely comfortable, breathable and fast drying. Merino wool has a natural ability to repel bacteria, so you can wear these socks for days before you need to wash them and allows them to be cool in the summer and warm in the winter...genius!
How cushioned are they?These socks have ultra-light cushioning throughout the sock with an extra layer of light cushioning around the heel and base of the foot for comfort and extra protection.
What are the features?The sock has a comfortable ultra low fit that is lightweight and breathable making them an ideal travel sock and your comfort is further enhanced by the True Seamless construction which does away with bulky stitched seams giving them an almost invisible feel. They also have graduated light compression throughout the sock to provide you with enough support to tackle day-long trails.
