About this product
The Lightest Hike Sock Just Got Better.
Darn Tough took one of the most popular socks in their lineup and made it even harder to put down. The Darn Tough Men's Hiker Lightweight Crew (Style 1972) in Seafoam is a refined, performance-forward hiking sock built for the trail runner, day hiker, and anyone who demands a sock that keeps up without weighing them down. Every update was intentional, and every detail earns its place.
Increased Breathability Where It Counts
New mesh panels on top of the foot dramatically improve airflow, keeping your feet cooler and drier on the move. Whether you're grinding out miles on a hot trail or pushing through a long approach, the ventilation keeps heat and moisture from building up where it matters most.
A Upper That Stays Put
The redesigned smooth ribbing upper is engineered to stay in place — no bunching, no slipping, no mid-hike adjustments. It conforms to your leg and holds its position through the full range of motion, so you can focus on the trail instead of your gear.
Extended Achilles Cushion
Added cushion over the Achilles area provides targeted protection and comfort right where trail runners and hikers feel it most. It's a meaningful upgrade that reduces fatigue and irritation on longer efforts without adding unnecessary bulk to the rest of the sock.
Darn Tough's Legendary Construction
Like every Darn Tough sock, the Hiker Lightweight Crew is knit from fine Merino wool in Vermont and backed by the brand's unconditional lifetime guarantee. If they ever wear out, Darn Tough replaces them. No questions asked.
