Did Darn Tough Sock try to get this review taken down? I've been contacted by Trustpilot, Darn Tough Sock want my personal info, including name, email and phone number, Trustpilot say that if I don't provide them, they will take my review down. If I don't provide my personal details to Darn Tough Socks, Trustpilot will remove a negative review. Hang on a minute, some people won't want to provide these details, and negative reviews will be removed. Does this not undermine the whole point of Trustpilot? So, the socks. I bought them in Ambleside, in January 2023, at a cost of over £20. I've had them for a few months and tried them out with my winter (leather Meindl) boots and summer (fabric Salamon) boots. They are a flat sock with little in the way of cushioning. They had a rough texture, I found that they rubbed against the ball of my foot after 3 to 4 miles. While I was in the Lake District I also bought a pair of Eskimo Sock from the Norwegian Shop in Keswick. They were £14 and perform a whole lot better. Darn Tough Socks, lack cushioning, are on the rough side and you can get better for less. I haven't done a long term wear test as I find them unwearable for any decent length of walk. In my original review I gave the item 3 stars, as I took into account all the positive reviews on Trustpilot and other forums. However, in hindsight, I've decide to base my review on personal experience only, and say that I regret buying the socks, that's twenty odd quid I'll never see again.

A Pleasure to Deal With Great socks and customer service! The socks are amazing. I thought they were too tight, but once I had them on, they felt great. I actually bought them to go with a crazy colorful pair of German clogs and the combination is delightful. Customer service responded quickly and so politely to a question about the shipment sent amiss by the USPS--no fault of Darn Tough I learned when the package arrived.

It take forever to ship orders out and… It take forever to ship orders out and the customer service does not answer inquiries.

The best most comfy socks ever Darn Tough socks for without doubt the best socks I’ve ever had. They are so comfy. I don’t think I ever expected them to be so cushioned. I wear mine for work every day. I’m on my feet all day every day in all weathers, and be it hot or cold they’re perfect. I would recommend them to anyone wanting super comfy socks.

Not set up for proper Uk trading Wonderful socks, but I got charged £114 by FedEx for customs charges and Darn Tough were unable to resolve this. I bought the 4 pairs of socks from the UK website, paying UK delivery charges, as a Christmas present. In late Jan I then got issued with a charge for unpaid customs charges by Fedex. Despite having tried multiple times and ways to get this repealed since then (and to do Darn Tough uk justice, they attempted to help), it was impossible, so I have ended up paying £114 to FedEx’s debt recovery agency as they would not respond to my emails themselves. While this may be have been partly a FedEx issue, Darn Tough were not set up properly to prevent this issue. I recommend avoiding buying the socks directly from the website and find a UK retailer. The quality of the socks themselves is terrific.
