Darn Tough. Pricey but good. Last a long time.

Good thread here.

Thread 'Merino Wool Thoughts'

Jul 24, 2024

I got my first set of merino wool long underwear last year before deer season. I got the 250 gram set. They are very warm and comfortable. I stayed warm in much colder weather than I expected them to keep me warm. They don't make me sweat when I'm walking in and out from my stands. I recently bought a pair of 400 grams. My plan for them is to wear both pairs at the same time to try to eliminate my insulated bibs until it gets down below 25 degrees. What experiences do others have with merino wool?

I've never tried them but, a friend ordered some alpaca wool socks last year before gun season and said they were awesome.

Darn Tough. I've worn smart wool a bunch as well but the Darn Tough ones definitely hold up better for me.

I tried them and didn't do it for me.

I looked at the prices for darn tough and they didn't do much for me

merino wool and not thick...I have been using darn tough and Orvis wool "dress" socks in the stand and blind. Both great! Giving away all of my thick socks....

Smartwool. It's made a huge difference in how my feet feel. I just can't explain it. I've even gone to working in lightweight smartwool even in summertime. It seems to reduce the fatigue factor that cotton puts on my feet.
