Trainer no show socks but thicker ?

Boring I know , but am in need of some trainer socks but the no show kind . All I’ve purchased have turned out to be “flimsy” as such . I’d prefer a pair that are thicker quality. Any ideas ?

Sports ones are much thicker

If you fit in men's sizes try those.

I’m watching this with interest - ideally for guaranteed-not-to-slip-off recommendations 😊

Running socks. I like Asics or Under Armour.

The best place for socks IME is the men’s section of TK Maxx - loads of different ones for next to nothing. Unless you’ve got tiny feet you will definitely find something there.

Ooo, I'm interested in this too.
Must, must, must be no show though!

I find the Primark ones the sturdiest of all.

I got some Laura Ashley ones from TKMaxx that are surprisingly thick!

I like wool socks as they are more bouncy than cotton, and Falke do them in proper sizes, not just 4-7 (I’m a 4, and 4-7 are usually not comfortable as they are too big). These look good: https://www.falke.com/uk_en/p/keep-warm-women-invisibles/46386_6278/

Many thanks.. I didn’t think I’d get replies on such a mundane question.. I had never thought of mens socks or wool or even running socks… I shall sock shop today 😊

Another vote for falke - expensive but I try and find in sales.
