No, Darn Tough isn't going soft on you. But the high-loft, ultra-supple Twisted Yarn and easy-going style of their Micro Crew Ranger hiking sock makes for a cushioned cruise around the village common or your local farmers market, for sure. And when it's time to climb to higher ground, Merino Wool will keep you warm and dry long after those cotton-wearing fools socks have let them down. | Darn Tough Vermont Men's Ranger Micro Crew Midweight Hiking Socks
