In Vermont, to be more specific. The makers claim that the Merino wool is highly breathable, itch-free, fast drying and... naturally anti-microbial. I don't know what that last claim means but I can confirm that these socks, indeed, are are a very comfortable wear, they do keep my feet dry and warm and they don't look too bad either. I can't verify the claim that these socks will be keeping you cool in the summer because I haven't had them last summer. The makers of Darn Tough...
