What customers say about our women's ankle socks

Purchased on recommendation specifically for a 5 week trip around Europe and they did not disappoint. Super comfy and supportive, no sore or smelly feet, dry quickly when hand washing needed to refresh, rinse repeat and go again. Highly recommend.

Vanessa M.Verified buyer · Ankle Tab, White

Socks which fit perfectly without the bulkiness of my old sports socks. I haven’t worn them a lot yet but they seem to stay in place and not slide down.

Pamela P.Verified buyer · Ankle Tab, White

These socks are amazing. Comfortable, never slip into your shoe, always dry.

SaraVerified buyer · Ankle Tab

Love these socks will definitely get more

Lissa W.Verified buyer · Ankle Tab, White

Absolutely love these socks.

Sneakers without socks

On a hot day it's tempting to pull your sneakers on without socks. By 3pm your feet are sliding around in a damp shoe and the sweat has soaked into the lining. After a summer of that, your sneakers smell every time you kick them off.

Ankle Tab puts recycled COOLMAX® yarn between your foot and that lining. It lifts the sweat off your skin and dries faster than cotton, bamboo and wool. Silver yarn in the footbed helps control odour-causing bacteria.

DryStep's Ankle Tab has soft terry loop cushioning under the foot and through the Achilles. A 90 degree heel follows the shape of your foot. There's a band of arch support around the middle of the sock and a reinforced heel and toe. The toe is seamless. In summer, breathable mesh ventilation in the forefoot lets some of the heat out of your sneakers.

With a bare leg

With shorts, a skort or a summer dress, you'll see the cuff of Ankle Tab on the ankle bone and the tab above the back of your sneaker. That stretchy cuff keeps them in place as you move. For a little more sock above your sneakers, our quarter crew socks come up between the ankle and Mid-Crew. All our ankle socks are Ankle Tab, one sock for men and women. Like the three taller cuts in our women's socks, it comes in two sizes labelled Medium (US M 5-⁠9 / W 6.5-⁠10.5) and Large (US M 9-⁠13 / W 11-⁠14).

Try one pair on the 30-Day First Pair Guarantee. Not the most comfortable socks you've worn? We'll refund that pair within 30 days of receipt. It covers one worn pair. Try one before you wear the rest.

How the Guarantee Works

Questions we get asked

Are ankle socks still in style?

Yes, for training and warm days. Plenty of people still wear them with shorts or leggings to the gym and on a run. If you want more sock showing, Quarter, Mid-Crew and Crew all come up higher on the leg.

What are tab socks?

They're ankle socks with a small tab at the heel that sits above the back of your trainer. On Ankle Tab, that tab protects the back of your ankle from rubbing against your shoe. That's usually the first spot a new pair of sneakers rubs.

Do you wear ankle socks with leggings?

Yes, in trainers at the gym or on a walk. Full-length leggings finish around the ankle bone and sit over Ankle Tab's stretchy cuff. With 7/8 or cropped leggings, a strip of skin shows between the hem and your sock. If you'd rather cover it, wear Quarter or Mid-Crew.

What socks do women wear with sneakers?

An ankle sock is the usual pick for low sneakers and runners. Ankle Tab comes in black or white to go with the shoe. Pair high-tops with Mid-Crew or Crew instead, because a high-top's collar wraps your ankle and can rub the skin above a low sock.

What are the best socks for travel?

A pair that dries fast and stays comfortable through a long day of walking. If you rinse Ankle Tab in the hotel sink and hang it up, it dries faster than cotton, bamboo and wool. On a day of sightseeing, the cushioned terry loops under the foot and through the Achilles soften each step.
