13 Best No-Show Socks Will Save Your Feet (and Your Shoes)
Go “sockless” the right way.
It's time to put one of your best assets on display. No, we're not talking about your calves or your thighs or even the work you've been doing on firming up your behind. Come on, let's see those ankles, baby. The sockless look is taking over, and the easiest way to perfect it is with no-show socks.
Yeah, I'm talking about those low-cut socks that look absolutely ridiculous on their own but disappear entirely under a pair of lace-ups or sneakers. Some folks call 'em loafer socks because the lowest-profile versions of them are cut so that they're invisible. Others (we'll call them "no-show running socks") can't pull that particular parlor trick, hitting a little higher on the foot to protect from abrasion while leaving your ankles blissfully free to feel the breeze as you put in your miles.
Best of all, today's versions are even better. They've got high-end technical fabrics and grippy bits on the interior so they won't slip down your heels. They've got the kind of smart construction that keeps them snug at the mid-foot to support your foot while protecting your shoes from sweat. Go ahead and stock up. The world deserves to see those ankles, and your feet deserve a little kindness. Best of both worlds.
