Point6 promises a better wool sock.
Point6 socks are the most comfortable, most durable merino wool socks you can own. They even guarantee it! Optimum body temperature is essential for comfort and performance, and particularly during pursuits that may include varied and wide ranges in temperature. Point6 socks will keep your feet at your optimal body temperature 98″Point6″! (it’s where they got the name). You can wash them in the washing machine and dry them in the dryer and they will not shrink.
POINT6 MERINO:
- It is antimicrobial, resisting odor-causing bacteria.
- It absorbs moisture as a vapor but repels it as a liquid.
- Its fine micron makes it very soft and extremely comfortable.
- It is flame resistant and can withstand the rigors of everyday life.
- It is easy to care for and cushions your feet every step of the way.
- It helps regulate your body’s temperature, keeping you cool when it’s hot and hot when it’s cool.
- It is highly breathable which helps manage temperature and moisture.
- It is durable, long lasting, and resists pilling.

I like that you can dry them without shrinking them. Otherwise they seem like most other high quality wool socks.
Darn tough Socks, lifetime warranty
Nowhere does it say that they’re better than Smartwool? As far as I’m concerned, the only thing better than smartwool is on-sale-smartwool.
Can anyone compare the two?
funny thing is that the starters of point6 left smartwool….
Ok, here is the deal, and if anyone knows more, please correct me if I am wrong. I am a huge fan of these sox.These sox were created by the Same guy who founded Smartwool. Originally he founded Smartwool and had 2 investors. Eventually they bought him out in some sort of hostile takeover, then immediately turned around and sold the company for significantly more than they had paid him. Point6 is his response to Smartwool. I believe Point6 sox all have hand stitched toes, which makes them awesome in ski boots. (and because of OSHA regulations is why they are/were all made in china). For similar models the Point6 sox are cheaper, generally by several dollars than Smartwool. I too was a big Smartwool fan until I tried Point6. Could be just because I am cheap…
I have both. Whichever I can get cheaper I’ll buy. Don’t really see the difference
Darn Tough Vermont, Made in Vermont and Unconditionally Guaranteed for LIFE. How can you beat that? Switch out of your inferior socks.
CEP socks are the way to go. Once you try them, you’ll agree. Pricey, but worth every penny.
CEP socks are far and away my favorite ski sock.
Dont buy the pretend hippy wannabee skiir darn tough. They are not tough. Had four pair wear out with five uses. Vermont is not the green “mountain” state. It is the big hill state. Ice.boys
I would not reccomend darn tuff socks. In my experiance they wear very fast.
I wish I could move out west so it actually mattered what kind of socks I wear. My life in vermont sucks. Pretending.
Darn Tuff is where it’s at. I’ve burned through every brand out there…Darn Tuff is the only one who sends me fresh ones for free. Stop Hating because you can’t ski trees. My mom skis out west (she loooooooves those big open powder bowls)
Yes, don’t be confused people. There is certainly no tree skiing out west. hahahaha
