Socks for walking that don't fall down: recommendations

[Bmidreams]

Hi, I'm in desperate need of some walking socks that don't fall down. I'm a size 8. Can anybody please recommend some?

I've always had the tresspass coolmax socks - never had a problem with them.

Thanks, they only go up to a size 7, same with a lot of them.

I have small feet and muscuar calves. I have to fold the tops of socks over because it is a universal truth that socks rarely stretch halfway up my calves, much less stay there.

I have no recommendations but when I see I thread like this it makes me smile. The active threads are just “everyone is going to die” but then a little gem like this pops up and reminds me that life is as normal ax it ever were 😀

Bridgedale, men’s sizes

Almost anything in men's sizes.

It makes no sense to me to pay more for women's sizes of things fir things like socks are essentially unisex

Don't get me started on pink box biros.

@BogRollBOGOF I am wearing my asda socks currently and they literally fall down the heel and end up under my foot!!

@Uganytono

Walking is what I have to do to stop the weight gain from excessive eating due to the worry that "everyone is going to die"

Yes, I usually just have men's things, but was worried they might be too big, thus resulting in the rolling down problem!

I like my bridgedale ones, v comfy. But I'm only a size 4.

I hate how loads of women's socks now come in size 4-8. 4-7 fit me fine but 4-8 ones are bigger and fall down like you say. It's like they are trying to avoid creating different sizes.

I swapped walking socks for support socks.
Up to your knee and always stay up because they grip.
They make your legs feel lovely and light and refreshed.

I find if you put your socks over your trousers they stay up! (I'm a farmer so often have a boiler suit over my trousers so you cant see). Depends if you have long boots or wellies to cover them though. Could work until you get a new brand.

Another vote for Bridgedale!

Feet currently tucked up and cosy in some Mountain Warehouse merino socks I got for Christmas - they appear not to fall off, even inside my dog-walking wellies.

I've recently found sweat betty to be quite good

It’s really handy for us people with size 8 feet though! I wear men’s waking socks, but ordinary socks in men’s size 8 are usually far too wide.

Well yes, it just feels like they are trying to cover too many sizes with one size, which definitely doesn't fit all.

Bridgedale do a range of sizes, no need to wear men's socks. They don't fall down. Here's one example that you can get in a 7 - 8.5 www.bridgedale.com/710-644-hike-midweight-boot-merino-performance

Thanks everyone!

I also have feet that eat socks

Like @Rbaby I tuck trousers into my (longer) socks if I'm outside a long time but for pure exercise, I wear the ones above
