Trainer socks that stay put

Can anyone recommend some trainer socks that don't slip off? I''ve tried several different pairs now and they always slip under my foot. Don't want to waste any more money!

I find the H&M ones very good. You will find them in the sport wear section. They will be hanging near the water bottle, hair band and other sport accessories.
They come higher up on the heel and they don't move. They come in a pack of three for AUD 12, so they will be at roughly six pounds in UK.

Primark sports footies a pack is £3.50.

They are great because they actually stay put at the gym & when I'm walking in my trainers.

I get the 2.50 (for 5)marks and spencer socks they stay put. Quite impressed as so cheap

Gap are by far the best.

I use Hilly. You need socks with a ridge at the back so that they can’t slip down into your shoes.

I like the Next ones.

I have actually found the holy grail of trainer socks. Vans do some that are so good at staying put and they are low at the front too so I can wear my vans low profile. They do 2 types of cut.

They aren't cheap though sadly

Sainsbury's! Seriously, they're great!

Wow, 8 recommendations! Seems like there’s a lot that stay up. I always have trouble with this too so will try some of these

M&S, but sadly not all of them. Spent a fortune finding the right ones and then bought 8 packs. Hoping that's my trainer sock quota for life.

The best ones I have are some New Balance ones, I actually bought them in TK Maxx so way less than RRP, they're really good, very fitted on the foot in different places (if that makes sense) rather than just one big hole you put your foot in. They don't show under my trainers hardly at all and aren't ugly. Obviously not a fashion statement on any day of the week realistically but they were the most neutral I could find that did the job!

X Tone from Home Bargains- about three quid for two or three pairs. They're snug fitting, have the padded heel ridge, and are equal to the more expensive running trainer socks I bought from a sports shop.
