7. Darn Tough Vermont Socks
Darn Tough is a family owned business that has been knitting socks in Vermont for nearly 40 years. They say they make their socks in the USA not because it’s the easy thing to do, but because it’s the right thing to do. They state," There are faster and cheaper alternatives but nobody ever outsourced anything for quality." They use only the best ethically sourced Merino Wool and make a sock for every activity! We personally highly recommend their hiking/trekking socks! Getting socks for Christmas can actually be exciting when they are Darn Tough socks!

But the best part is that it all packs down to the size of one pot.
