Electroweakmultiplets constitute prototype candidates ofWIMP Dark Matter, providing a useful benchmark to compare collider searcheswith direct and indirect ones. In this talk I will mainly focus on a fermiontriplet, stable thanks to one of the accidental symmetries of the StandardModel, and with a mass of ~ 3 TeV if the thermal abundance isimposed. I will discuss other motivations for this new state, like vacuumstability, and present a detailed study of the reach of the high luminosity LHCand of a 100 TeV pp collider. Such aphenomenological study covers also the case of a pure Wino, of particularinterest in Supersymmetric models that do not aim at solvingthe hierarchy problem
