Which models? I’ve tried 5 different models they have and they are all too narrow… maybe my wide feet is wider than ur wide feet 😞

Their thicker wool socks have been ok for me. Not for all day, but maybe a 2-4 hour hike. Their low cut ones(no show and ankle) I literally can’t. I sized up and then another size up and it’s just too long where it’ll move around in the shoes. Ima size 9 in most shoes but have to get 9.5 or 10 cuz width. If they have extra wide I get 9 extra wide

Yes. They have a one year warranty though, Darn Tough is lifetime. Darn Tough has a lot of fashion style socks, Balega is more performance.

I bought them for my mom, she wears a 9 wide and she absolutely loves them. She’s addicted to them now, in the summer she wears the No-show version and in winter she’s wearing the crew socks.

The Darn Tough, she loved the cute designs but hated how they fit on her wide foot. They were really really tight.

I had bought them for her because she walks a lot and kept complaining about the ball of her foot hurting. After trying many different shoes and socks, her foot problems have gone away. She’s even able to walk around the house in just socks now.

Her perfect combo is Hoka Bondi (wide width) or Saucony Triumph with Balega socks. Prior to my “intervention” she was wearing sketchers with regular cheap socks
