Light Hiker Micro Crew Light Cushion Sock - Men's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I reach for the Light Hiker Micro Crew on any trip where I'm living in the same pair of boots for multiple days. The merino blend keeps odor in check better than any synthetic sock I've used, and the True Seamless construction means I've never had to stop to deal with a hot spot on the trail."

Day three of a backpacking trip is when socks start to matter. The Darn Tough Light Hiker Micro Crew Light Cushion Sock is built for exactly that point in the trip, when cumulative miles are showing up in your feet and fresh gear feels far away. Merino wool and synthetic fibers work together to pull moisture away from skin and resist odor naturally, so comfort doesn't erode with the miles.

The micro crew height sits just above the collar of a standard hiking boot, protecting skin from tongue and collar abrasion without bunching up inside a taller shaft. True Seamless construction eliminates the toe seam friction that turns into a blister by lunchtime, and light cushioning adds just enough underfoot padding to soften the trail without overheating the foot. For a sock that disappears into the background of a hard day outside, the Light Hiker Micro Crew earns its place in the pack.
