## Questions & Answers

**Q: What's the difference between model 1404 and 1403?**
A: Bonnie: From the Darn Tough web site and even on Amazon I don't see a 1404 model.  There is a 1403 and a 1405 that differ from the area of cushioning. 1403 is bottom of foot only while 1405 is "full cushioning through entire sock". Hope that helps.

**Q: how many pairs come in the package?**
A: 1 pair of socks. But made in Vermont and last a lifetime.

**Q: so is it just one pair?**
A: The price listed is for one pair.  We understand that each pair is an investment in your feet and back all of our socks with a Lifetime Warranty.

**Q: are the extra large really extra large?**
A: Hello, I ordered "Large" that was what was in my shoe size range.  They fit perfectly, so if your shoe size range is extra large they should fit.  I work construction in New Englang and work outside most of the year.  By far the best socks I've owned.
