They don't slide down
A common problem with 1/4 socks is that they slide down easier when walking. However, the elastic in Darn Tough socks have a good grip without being uncomfortably tight, and don't stretch out.

They have a fair bit of support/elastic around the toes and heel to help keep the socks in place. However this can feel quite tight and constricting.
