My wife dropped a small mint for darn tough socks like three years ago as a father's day gift. It's been delightful.

I find them too small, they're hard to get on my feet. Good quality tho.

check out Wide Open, new line of wider socks from DT

Still not wide enough. If anybody has wider reccos in big sizes other than "oddball" brand, I'm all ears.

I have wide feet and Smartwool socks work for me.

(I hate all the weird color combinations and designs that a lot of companies use, but thankfully Smartwool has a good deaign with their Hike Classic Edition Ankle Socks)

I had a small hole in them and contacted support and they told me to send another photo of the socks after I destroyed them. Then I got reimbursed.

I was under the impression I have to send them in and they are repaired. Nope. Probably my mistake to assume.

Despite the brand name, I can't imagine that darning socks would be more economical than just shipping a new pair.

I still have mine from ~7 years ago. I only wear them during winter but still.
