No-show socks are, without a doubt, a weird item to shop for. They're the one piece of clothing that you really don't want anyone to ever see. Even underwear begs to be shown these days, hence the visible lingerie trend popping up everywhere. Socks definitely aren't as sexy. But if a visible sock kind of kills your summer vibe, don't opt for bare feet either! With temperatures starting to warm up, no-show socks, a.k.a. "invisible socks" or "hidden liner" socks, are the only way to preserve your sneakers, loafers and maybe even a ballet flat from suffering from funky feet syndrome. There is a time and a place for bare feet in shoes, but for everything else, let no-show socks do you a solid and keep your feet feeling comfortable and your footwear in great shape. We've rounded up our favorites to keep your feet feeling fresh without compromising your look.
Old Navy No-Show Liner-Socks 3-Pack for Women
This 3-pack is a steal when it comes to no-brainer basics to wear with loafers, moccasins or flats for work.
Madewell Two-Pack Grid Low-Profile Socks
Just because everyone isn't seeing them doesn't mean they can't be cute. The graphic pattern on this pair isn't embarrassing during a TSA security check.
Uniqlo Women Linen Footsies
Linen is super breathable and a perfect summer fabric.
Lululemon Secret Sock
As with the cult following of their yoga pants, these Lululemon socks are so covetable.
Zella 3-Pack No-Show Socks
This 3-pack is perfect to keep in rotation for workouts. The white, gray, and black are sure to go with any athletic sneaker.
STANCE Harbor Socks
Stance socks are increasingly popular, thanks to their comfort but also their street cred after being worn by Rihanna. Your feet will be happy and feeling swaggy in these for sure.
Alo Yoga Conceal Sock
As it has with activewear, Alo has mastered a super lightweight no-show sock that feels good in any shoe.
Pendleton National Park Moc Socks
The iconic National Park stripes from Pendleton are now in a no-show sock. A fun little secret only your feet will know.
Pair of Thieves Women's No Show Socks
These super cute floral pair are also a steal!
J.Crew Tie-Dye No-Show Socks
The tie dye trend is still everywhere, even if you can't actually see it!
Bombas Women's Low-Cut No Show Socks
These are low cut-enough to even wear with ballet flats. A pro tip: Buy a few to match your favorite go-to shoes.
Converse Galaxy Print Made for Chuck Ox 3-Pair Pack
3-packs are kind of unfair, since there's always one that's always more likable than the others. However, get this pack if just for the galaxy print alone!
