Darn Tough Tab No Show Coolmax Ultra Light Cushion vs Showers Pass Crew Wool Socks

The Darn Tough Tab No Show Coolmax Ultra Light Cushion is widely considered to be a great Running Socks at its $15 budget. The Showers Pass Crew Wool Socks, however, while also a good product at this price point, doesn't stack up against its competitors quite as well.

The Darn Tough Tab No Show Coolmax Ultra Light Cushion was loved by reviewers at OutdoorGearLab, a highly trusted source that performs reliable in-depth testing. It did great in its "Best Running Socks of 2020" roundup where it was named its "Best for Durability", which, in itself, makes it a product worth considering.

Taking a look at the Showers Pass Crew Wool Socks, we found that it hasn't managed to perform well enough to earn a spot in any Running Socks roundups done by sources that conduct their own, high-quality, hands-on testing. That alone makes it difficult to recommend.
