socks (thick?) to wear with ankle boots and short(er) trousers/jeans

I see lots of suggestions on here to style 'mom' jeans and other ankle-grazer trousers worn with ankle boots (chunky chelsea or laced up) with 'thick long socks' or 'thick wool socks'. Does anyone have any specific recommendations of such socks?

They look great @cannaethink. How high do they come up your legs?

@Flockameanie Probably about a third of the way up my calf

I have these in various colours. They come up mid calf on me (5ft 6). I wear them with DM Church boots in both oxblood and black, and trainers, usually Adidas but sometimes Vejas.

I got some from Primark that I wrinkle at the ankle, 80’s style.

I have men's socks from M&S similar to these

I can see they have women's socks this year too here

They may have grey ones too - I didn't look for grey

the birkenstock socks look nice
