That doesn’t work it’s way down under the foot. So far I’ve tried Elle, Falke, Lululemon, which have all had good reviews, and all have failed. Also tried a couple of pairs from Primark and TK Maxx.

I’m getting obsessed with this and can’t stop look at peoples socks! Everyone else seems to manage, maybe it’s just me. Maybe I’ll just give up and start wearing long crew socks!

Currently wearing some cheap white trainer socks that I bought from Asda George last summer. They don't creep on me.

M&S invisible trainer socks. Not the low cut ones, have a forage around for the high cut ones with a blob of silicon on the heel. £8 for four pairs

Thanks, I’ll pick some up tomorrow. I’ve spent a fortune on the sodding things. Fingers crossed.

I usually find myself just folding down my normal socks because all my trainer socks are in the wash.
I put them on inside out to start with so if you get a flash of the turned out bit it's the right way round

TheSkatesOfCoachBombay · 24/07/2021 21:27

Best ones I ever had and still have are from sports direct.

H&M no show trainer socks.

I’ve been looking for this unicorn for ages so thanks for starting the thread!

Ingridla · 24/07/2021 21:30

Cheap ones in pack of 5 from Sports Direct are actually great!

DobbyTheHouseElk · 24/07/2021 21:32

Not M&S ones, they shrink.

AertexShirt · 24/07/2021 21:32

What size feet are you, OP? If you're a 6 or above I'd recommend men's socks (H&M are quite good).

NotMyCat · 24/07/2021 21:35

These. I've had them a year and no holes and don't move

Best ones I've ever had are from Primark. They've got silicone in the heel so they don't slip.

H&M no show trainer socks.

These with the silicone at the heel. Smile

ScotLot · 24/07/2021 21:37

I have these from amazon. Have bought 3 packs as DP kept borrowing them so now we have plenty for us both. They have little rubbery bits on the heel to keep them in place too.

LunaNorth · 24/07/2021 21:41

Primark and M&S are the best I’ve tried.

Carbis · 24/07/2021 21:46

Sweaty Betty Pilates socks are the best I’ve found. And I have tried so many!

PeterPipersPepper · 24/07/2021 21:55

The H&M ones with the silicone on the heel. They’re brilliant.

I walked miles in these last weekend, no slipping whatsover

Madcats · 25/07/2021 14:36

I second the "buy men's". I bought some in the Debenhams closure sale (are any stores still open?).

They look like Ladies BUT they have a slightly tacky few strips at the back of the heel to hold them up. I have added a photo of one with the "inside back heel" showing inside out.

I’ve just got these www.nike.com/gb/t/everyday-plus-lightweight-training-footie-socks-3ppmTW/SX5277-100 and they are really good. They’ve stayed on all day, they’re some sort of synthetic mix and have a blob of silicone on the heel.
