We're talking socks, and Marty's thrilled. Welcome to Wishlist After Dark! I'm Penny, with sequin enthusiast Marty Dazzle and Sunny, our ray of light. Thanks, Penny! Folks, it's the Darn Tough Vermont Men's Hiker Midweight Micro Crew Sock! The perfect gift for the hiker, or anyone who wants a really good stocking stuffer! Hi, everyone! Marty, picture it: they pull these out of the stocking and start planning a hike!

Okay, Sunny, what makes 'em special? Breathable merino wool, Marty, and durable targeted cushion, so the padding sits in chosen spots. And the toe's designed for a smooth, barely-there feel! But wait, there's more! The maker promises no slipping, no bunching, no blisters. What a list, folks! That's the maker talking, Marty. Treeline Review's tester says they easily get 600 miles from a pair of midweights before seeing wear.

Hold on, 600 miles? Oh, I want one! Treeline says there's a lifetime warranty too! And Zappos buyers say they hold up for years. Not bad. Look at this, 4.7 stars from 12,092 reviews on Amazon! So, Penny, what's the catch? This listing's one color and size, black in small, from a third-party seller, Dearborn Supply. The socks on screen are other colors, so check the size before you buy. Just small? Penny, my heart!

Oh, and Treeline says people with larger ankles report the crew length doesn't work for them. If it fits, what a gift! Eight point four from me for that durability. Marty? Eight point eight, Sunny! That's the stocking I want to open! Seven point eight from me, that size catch is real. Our After Dark Score's eight point three out of ten, number two of three on our fashion board. It's a buy if your hiker wears a small.

Thanks, Treeline Review and Zappos buyers! Folks, the link's on our site and in the description. See you next time!
