About this piece

Built like a tank for aggressively lounging, the new Shorty invites hardcore relaxation with its fluffy cuff and smooth 1x1 ribbed leg. Short in height but deep in a full foot, cocoon of comfort, this Heavyweight knit is tough on the outside but soft everywhere else. Whether you’re working from home or just chilling after a long day, you’ll reach for this pair every time.

About the artist

Ric Cabot's family has been making socks in the same Northfield mill since 1978. When cheap imports nearly killed the business, Ric pivoted to premium merino wool and slapped an unconditional lifetime guarantee on every pair. The bet worked. Darn Tough now knits over 30,000 pairs a day, employs 300+ Vermonters, and has an estimated return rate under 3%. The guarantee isn't a gimmick — it's a quality control mechanism that forces them to build socks that simply don't wear out.
