Any recommendations for trainer socks which are low enough to not show over the top of trainers but will actually stay on my feet? ThanksSmile

Thanks

I have had this issue until I discovered Primark Sporty shoe liners (essential to get the "sporty" ones. They are fab

mai5x · 25/04/2018 12:28

Yup I second the Primark sporty ones!

bizzers · 25/04/2018 12:30

These from H&M are fab!

Tisfortired · 25/04/2018 12:44

I love H&M trainer socks, they fit very well, don't slip down and are not too high on the ankle.

Ellapaella · 25/04/2018 13:27

These from Primark are honestly the best, they have grips inside to stop them sliding off your foot.

Bugjune · 25/04/2018 13:28

Sweaty Berry do the job well.

macnab · 25/04/2018 13:32

Exactly what MrsSnitch says. Make sure to get those ones though as they do sell other non-sporty ones. Cheap as chips, you get 3 pairs in a pack and they are fantastic.

TossDaily · 25/04/2018 13:32

Primark.

NetVolume · 25/04/2018 13:36

Nike trainer socks are good.

creamcheeseandlox · 25/04/2018 14:14

You can get some H&M ones with silicone at the heel which are good.

FrownsAndDimples · 25/04/2018 15:06

Another vote for Primark mesh sporty ones in a 5 pack.

I keep losing the odd one in the wash grr.

BreakfastAtSquiffanys · 25/04/2018 15:16

Will look at some of these.
My new trainers keep on eating my socks!

Weezol · 25/04/2018 15:20

Frowns You could put them in a pillowcase*. I think Primark have mesh washing bags, usually in the lingerie section.

*You may occasionally be woken by a lump in the pillow. It will be a trainer liner.

Oldraver · 25/04/2018 15:52

I bought these last year on a MN recommendation...they are brill

ShatnersBassoon · 25/04/2018 15:56

The lace ones pictured above are the best on my small feet. Regular sock fabric ones just ping off at the heel within a couple of steps.

FrownsAndDimples · 25/04/2018 17:09

Weezol that's a great idea. My husband keeps finding them in amongst our duvets. Confused

CognitiveDissonance · 25/04/2018 17:14

Nike ones are good

ShovingLeopard · 25/04/2018 18:25

Gap are the only ones that stay on for me, having tried absolutely loads over the years.

tortiebluecat · 25/04/2018 18:27

I buy men’s ones 3 sizes too big as I find they all shrink a bit in the wash. They stay put!

RusholmeRuffian · 25/04/2018 19:41

Calvin Klein usually found in TK Max

AllBuggiedOut · 25/04/2018 20:03

I love these from Sweaty Betty

Sports direct do some good ones (Karrimor) - if I’m spending a bit more Sweaty Betty are fab.

mumtobe417 · 25/04/2018 20:57

I wear the guys trainers socks from primark. They fit my size 5 feet. They have wee grips at the back heel which mean mine never slip off and they are the ones that can't be seen. Black ones on the cardboard shoe thing and pack of three
