KEY FEATURES OF THE MOUNTAINEERING OVER-THE-CALF SOCKS
- Men's over the calf socks average 17 in. from heel to cuff - expect them to cover the leg to just below the knee.

- We close every toe seam using our True Seamless™ Toe technology for an ultra smooth, undetectable feel.
- Reinforced footbed and Achilles cushion improves the comfort of our socks and helps them last longer.
- Merino Wool is at home on the trail, naturally moving moisture to keep feet fresh and dry in all weather.
- Our warmest socks - heavyweight socks trap heat, transfer moisture, and provide steady comfort on the coldest treks.
- The “still” in Still Made in Vermont, USA is personal. We knit all our socks at our VT-based Mills - we can't imagine it any other way.

WHAT WE THINK
The Darn Tough Mountaineering Over-the-Calf Heavyweight Socks have quickly become a go-to choice for cold-weather activities. We’ll be using them on an upcoming skiing expedition to cross Lake Inari in Finland, and after testing them in various conditions, we’re confident they’ll provide the warmth, comfort, and durability we need for this challenging journey.
The heavyweight cushioning provides exceptional insulation, ensuring our feet stay warm even in freezing temperatures. The over-the-calf design offers additional warmth and coverage, keeping our legs and feet protected from the biting cold wind, while the moisture-wicking properties keep our feet dry, even during high-energy activities like skiing.
Durability is another key feature of the Darn Tough Socks. After using them on previous cold-weather hikes, they’ve shown no signs of wear, maintaining their fit and performance. The socks provide a snug, supportive fit that stays in place, even during strenuous activities, and the lifetime warranty offers peace of mind for long-term use.
