About this piece

We don’t use strings, but if we did the Element Micro Crew is first-string varsity all-pro. Easy on the eyes yet loaded with features, this Merino Wool Run sock offers top foot breathability and ultra-marathon durability that won’t quit even if you want to. Its adapted tech foot is the secret to crushing your next training block. But keep it hush. We don’t want them to hear. Also, we use yarn.

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.
