I am a big fan of Darn Tough socks.  I have been using Darn Tough hiking socks for years.  The hiking socks stay up and never slide down into my boots, even when hiking long distances downhill.  I wear these socks most of the time, and they are very, very durable.  I have been hiking and wearing some of these hiking socks for 3 to 4 years, and they still look as good as new!

The socks I am reviewing now are the dress version of Darn Tough socks.  They look nice and are much thinner than the hiking socks that I have worn in the past.  Fits better in my dress shoes!  They stay up as well as the hiking socks.  My only issue with the socks is that they got a few picks during laundering cycles.  Most likely due to velcro closures on some of my hiking pants that were washed at the same time.  This problem never happened with the hiking socks however.

Even though I am taking away one star due to the picks in the laundry, I like these socks a lot.  The fit and look in dress shoes makes them a better product than the hiking socks when you want to go out on the town (or to work...).

Compared to other dress socks I have owned (countless over the years), I definitely recommend these socks for dress wear.  I have used them for some time now, and they are still looking like new (with exception of a couple picks on one pair).  I would just caution those who buy these socks to insure that any clothing with velcro fasteners or other obstructions like zippers be fastened/zipped up if washing with these socks.
