We love sneakers, but the one downside to the shoe is that, unless you want to wear them out more quickly, they require a pair of socks. Wearing trainers sans anything means your feet will likely sweat more, and as such, they'll likely start to smell much faster. So we were curious to find the best socks to wear with sneakers. And in this search (as we typically like to do), we decided to turn to customer reviews on both Amazon and Nordstrom to find the best 10 that are, among other things, comfortable, sweat-wicking, and perfect to pair with your favorite sneakers. So read on to see and shop the top-rated sneaker socks, according to people who tested them out firsthand.
Amazon
Top Review: "These are really soft, high-quality socks, and they live up to their claim of not showing under sneakers. I like them so much I plan to order some more for summer."
Top Review: "I've tried several brands of no-show socks, including Bombas (developed holes after a few wears) and Stomper Joe (stretched out and started slipping). These socks aren't entirely no show with my classic Vans, but they're close, and more importantly, they don't slip! So far they're holding up pretty well after five or six washes. If you want these for ballet flats or something, I'm not sure they would work, but for sneakers they are perfect."
Top Review: "Extremely comfortable and just what was needed. I can't handle socks coming over my ankles when I am wearing sneakers. These are the best sneaker socks I've ever owned. Several of my friends have asked where I got them. Once these ever wear out, I hope they have more in stock because I'll definitely be making another order."
Nordstrom
Top Review: "Very comfy! And low enough to actually be no-show with running shoes and sneakers."
Top Review: "Amazing socks for tennis shoes and shoes with a low profile! Definitely worth the price!"
Top Review: "So comfy and they stay hidden perfectly underneath my sneakers. They also don't slide down when I work out. Highly recommended!"
Top Review: "I have always liked my Smartwool socks for wearing in my Nike running shoes. When I found these little darlings I was thrilled. They hide so well inside a sneaker, and, like all Smartwool socks, they keep your feet cool."
Top Review: "Best socks ever! These don't slip and look cute for a no-show look. The white is nice with tennis shoes."
Top Review: "These socks are very functional! They have stayed put on my feet in my sneakers, which is what I was looking for because other brands I have bought in the past would slip off my heel over time. I have put them through the wash twice, and they are holding up well so far. I hope they will last for a very long time. I wear shoe sizes 7.5-8 and got the Zella socks in sizes 6-8.5 in black."
Top Review: "These were perfect little socks for wearing with sneakers or just around the house. I have been looking for good ankle socks for a long time. I love these."
