A few weeks back I was offered a free pair of Darn Tough socks.
Naturally, I accepted, after all they are free. Plus, I love new socks.
Crisp, clean socks make my feet happy.
When I received the ultra-light, noncushion socks, I was a bit
skeptical. I am not a fan of thin socks. And making the transition
from winter running to spring running and riding doesn’t help.
Although skeptical, I kept an open mind.
I put the DARN Tough socks to the test, I initiated them with my
first official brick of the season. A brick is two sports done
back-to-back. In my case: 20-mile ride followed by a 2-mile run.
The verdict: I like ‘em.
Why: I like snug socks. My feet didn’t slip in my shoes.
And the pair I received had Merino Wool – huge was a plus.
After I tested the socks, I did a search: best running socks.
Wouldn’t you know it, Runner’s World had an archived sock
review from Feb. 2, 2008. The first pair of socks on the
list: DARN Tough socks. Need I say more?
No need for me to give you the entire low down on
the DARN Tough socks when all you have to do is

I will have to give them a try, I like thin sock’s they will dry faster. Lot’s of color!
