Invisible socks/sockettes that don't slip!

14 replies

Waferbiscuit · 10/06/2023 09:10

In summer I mostly wear trainers or brogues to work with sockettes in them. But I can't for the life for me find ones that don't slip.

I'm a size 7 foot so it's a reach but all the brands I've tried just end up slipping off after 1 hour.

Any suggestions for invisible socks that work?

The H&M ones with the little gel bit on the inside of the heel. They have them every year, but hard to find online, I go in and feel all the socks until I find them!

Someone on here recommended them last year, and they worked for me.

Thanks @ZillionDayStreak - I'll check them out!

Another vote for the H&M ones! I find the ones that come up higher on the foot and with the gel dont slip at all.

Primark do some Like this with a silicon band all the way around the foot opening. I’m a size 7 and find these don’t slip under my foot like regular trainer socks do.

Primark are better than most for a size 7 as they are sized "4-8" where most only go to 7. Others might do this but I've stuck to Primark. Sometimes I buy the smaller (6-10 I think) size in the men's department instead.

I have found that moisturising my legs and ankles immediately before I put my socks on holds them up when I'm wearing shoes that they normally end up in the toes of. Worth a try.

Primark! Once on they don't move at all, they're brilliant.

I can only wear ones with a little back tab. The sick itself can be very low as long as there is that little tab sticking up at the back

HappiDaze · 10/06/2023 12:31

My favourite ones are from Primark

They're a bit thicker with an extra sort of semi circle bit at the heel. They never slip and wash well

These type from Primark are the best. they come in lots of different colours. Never had any issue with them slipping (I have with many others) and they don’t make my feet too hot, which is a bonus.

What @SoupDragon said about the Primark ones. I am a 7 too and all the others I’ve tried just feel too small and slip off!

QueueEtwo · 10/06/2023 13:30

I love the sort of mesh ones above from Primark too! They are so comfy!

M&S do some sheer ones with a gel tab which I find great. I’m a size 9, which seemingly no one caters for, but the 6-8 size stays on better than any I’ve used before.
