Review on ๐Ÿงฆ Darn Tough Hiker Sock Cushion: Superior Performance for Outdoor Adventures! by James Trapkin

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Shrinks easily in the dryer

I wear 9 1/2 shoes so took a size 10-12. They've been in the dryer for a bit and are very snuggly now. I wish I had XL socks but they will work for now. Update: They shrunk after the second wash and now fit very snugly the first time you put them on. I contacted the company and they told me they were preshrunk so they wouldn't shrink. I was then told not to use heat when drying which is inconsistent with the care instructions. The final opinion is that they appear to be decently made socks, but to me they are not worth the high price. Maybe I expected too much after reading the rave reviews. (Which now seems suspiciously good.) Only buy them if you plan to hand wash and line dry your socks as a new hobby. Maybe turn it into an RPG where you dress up like a pioneer and make her sing to get washed.
