Ask almost any long-distance hiker and they will tell you that hard socks are the best hiking socks on the planet. Trust me, giving someone a pair of socks seems pretty lame, which is one of the best gifts for hikers (yes, this should include all of my hikers). Socks are an essential hiking outfit.
Their quality construction stands out and seamlessly designed to prevent blisters and discomfort. Made in the United States, these socks feature a mixture of merino, nylon and spandex that provides durability, flexibility and odor resistance.
The buffering is also correct. It exists without being bulky and provides comfort on solid terrain. You can get thicker socks for winter hiking or thinner socks for ultralight trail runners.
The best part is that stubborn socks come with unlimited lifetime guarantees. If they encounter a hole or wear, you just send the old doubles and Darn Tough will replace them for free. This means this is a pair of socks for life!
While recreational walkers may not need this professional sock, it is perfect for serious hikers. I know that hard socks are a revelation of my long hike. This gift is small and cheap and can make a great sock, which is something they actually use.
