The Most Loved No-Show Socks For Women Over 50
I’ve been thinking a lot about socks lately. What can I say? It’s cold! Truth is, I don’t like wearing socks because they always seem to be eaten by my shoes. I’ve done some research, and these are “supposed” to be socks that my shoes won’t eat. So, I’m going to show you some of the most loved no-show socks for women over 50, and I’m crossing my fingers they work.
If you need to update your athletic shoes, check out today’s post on those.
My DIL’s Most Loved No-Show Socks
My DIL isn’t in her 50’s, but I figured that our feet wouldn’t know the difference. She highly recommends these by LuLuLemom, and I tried them. They worked great for me 90 percent of the time. I can’t figure out why they don’t work the rest of the time. Maybe it is the shoes; maybe the “stick-um” stuff at the heels wasn’t sticky enough. I don’t know, but she and my son both swear by them. These are the only pairs I’ve tried that’s worked that well. Warning…they are costly, but they seem to really work!
One of the things that I look at when deciding what to share is reviews. Socks are just socks, right? Wrong! These socks have been reviewed over 70,000 times and have a rating of 4.3 stars. Wow. The reviewers say that they are thin, but not too thin, hug the foot, and don’t slip. All good things!
These no-show socks have an elastic band around the ankle and a gripping heel to help the socks keep from slipping. They should work well with a variety of low-cut shoes, including sneakers, booties, and loafers. Going shoe shopping? Slip a pair of these in your purse to see how they work. I like the bright colors, but they also come in black, grey, white, and beige.
These are VERY low cut. They stop close to the toe line and the bottoms are made of cotton with a breathable nylon fabric to keep your feet from sweating. They also have non-skid silicone patches at the bottom to prevent slipping. Over 10,000 people have reviewed them, and they have a 4.3 star rating. Under $10 dollars!
One of the places that no-show socks tend to fail is around the toes. If you have shoes that show toe cleavage, you’re going to want these. They go into the toe-line just far enough to work. These have a no-slip heel, and the reviewers say that they are a nice, medium-weight. They are stretchy so you might size down a size than normal.

These have a bit more coverage – no toe cleavage, yay! You can purchase them in either 6 or 12 packs, and they run about $10/6. The reviewers really seem to like these. They have over 20,000 reviews and a rating of 4.4 stars. Most of the reviews say things along the lines of “soft, comfortable and well-made.”

I love a breathable sock and these fit the bill nicely! They have a higher profile, so you’ll want to wear these with athletic or walking shoes, booties, etc. These are very thin, perfect for the gym. If your goal is cozy, you may want to go for one of the medium-weight options. Check the link for pricing but they generally run about $10 for 6.
More breathable socks! These have “only” been reviewed 7,000 times, but their rating is a whopping 4.6 stars. Available in black, white, grey, and nude, these work with athletic shoes or the low-profile Keds type as well. Reviewers say they like the stretch, value, fit, comfort, and stability of the socks. The only issue I saw was that they run big, so you may want to size down.
Finally, these athletic footies are classified as no-show socks, but I’d call them low-ankle socks. I just made up my own category, lol. I have several pairs of these, and I love the slight compression around the top of the foot. They are soft and hug the foot just right. Plus, they’re cute colors! You can wear these with your tennis shoes while exercising, etc. but also inside your winter boots.

Have you ever heard of bombas socks? I see them advertised a lot. Maybe you could check them out for us! Thanks!
You might want to try Sheec socks. I really like them.
I have never found a pair of no show socks that my shoes don’t eat. I have pretty much given up.
It is a battle! Those pesky shoes are always hungry. Lol!
I too am having a terrible time with No-show socks- They just won’t stay on my heels! I end up just taking them off every time!! (I also have not found a pair of sling-back shoes I can wear, for the same reason! They just become ‘flip-flops’- which worn with dressy clothes just doesn’t work!! lol 😂 😆)Thank you for your reviews ! Merry Christmas ❤️🎄🌟
I need to wear no show sox sometimes but I can’t stand anything pulling on my toes. my toes are very sensitive! it can be a real problem. I usually buy shoes a half size bigger so my toes don’t touch anything. it helps sometimes to get a size xl in sox. I wear a 9 shoe. My toes need room to wiggle in encumbered! lol
I know I’m weird!
I purchased a 6-pack of Gonii brand no show socks earlier this year, and I love them. They’re comfortable, a great thickness for athletic shoes and stay put. I also bought a pack of crew/hiking socks in the same brand. As hiking socks go, they’re pretty thin, so I don’t know if I’d recommend these for “real” hiking (my style of hiking is pretty tame, preferring improved trails, no more than a few miles at a time), but they worked for me on a trip to the southwest. Still searching for the perfect low cut socks – I’ll have to try out your recommendations.
Tania, I like staying at home after dark in the winter, too! I’d rather cocoon on the couch than bundle up to go out to eat, however I rarely turn down an chance to avoid cooking…
I’ve never heard of some of these brands. Thanks, Tania!
It’s hard to find a pair of no show socks. They may look great @ the store, but when you actually wear them, they slip off! Thanks Tania for the recommendations!
😊😊😊
Hubs and I are not fans of leaving the house when it’s dark. We have a few dinner engagements with friends several times a month but that’s it.
I find that Bombas socks fit my needs the best, both for workout and no show, which is not very often at all. They are pricey but last and since I wear a pair everyday, I get my money’s worth.
The only no show socks that really work for me are Sheec socks. Another influencer suggested them
Those look great! Thanks for the heads-up.
