Dry Step ankle socks

Been testing the Dry Step ankle socks across walking, running, and full work days and they’ve been excellent so far.

No sweat issues, no smell build-up, and no hotspots or rubbing even after long hours on my feet. They stay comfortable all day, fit well, and hold their position without needing adjustment.

Overall, a really comfortable all-round sock that performs well across work and exercise.

Great socks, greater still for golf!

I would often get sore heels during and after a round of golf. These little beauties keep my feet comfy and dry. No sore or hot spots, no chance of blisters.

Excellent socks

Excellent socks. Comfy and warm. Feel soft on feet too. My only issue is that they only come in two sizes. I got 9-13 mens. Im an 11.5 and i have to over stretch the socks to fit and still sometimes ankles are too exposed and rub on shoes.

Super comfy and stay in place.

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.

Amazing socks. Very impressed.

Bought these socks specifically for a trip to Italy involving a lot of walking. The socks have been very impressive as they are super comfortable and stay dry. Also completed a couple of short runs in over 30 degree heat and just as impressive. Highly recommend.

Great Socks Great Service

Got my first order of DrySteps today. Great quality socks and great service.

Hi Dani, we're thrilled to hear you're loving the all-round comfort of our Vanilla Mid-Crew Socks, especially during winter! Thanks for your wonderful review and support.

Frequently asked questions

What are DryStep socks made from?

DrySteps are made from a high-performance blend:

85% recycled Coolmax®10% silver antibacterial fibres, and 5% elastane.

This trio delivers elite sweat-wicking, odour control, and all-day comfort — with durability that lasts. We tested cotton, wool, and bamboo. Coolmax® beat them all — especially in hot, humid Aussie conditions.

Silver fights odour at the source. Elastane locks in a stay-up fit that holds shape wash after wash.

Do they stay up or slide down?

DrySteps are engineered with a soft-yet-secure stay-up cuff that keeps your socks in place all day — no constant pulling, no bunching. Whether you're in meetings, walking, or training, they stay put without digging into your skin.

How thick are DrySteps? Will they fit in my shoes?

DrySteps are made with 2-ply yarn, giving them a slightly thicker feel than standard dress socks — and even some fitness socks, but they’re slim enough to fit comfortably in dress shoes/boots, casual shoes, or trainers. They provide all-day comfort without feeling bulky — the perfect balance between performance and versatility.

How long are DryStep's mid-crew socks?

Our mid-crew socks measure 21cm from heel to cuff for size US Men 9-13 and 19cm from heel to cuff for size US Men 5-8.5, landing just above ankle on most wearers.

Can I wear them to the gym or for workouts?

Absolutely. DrySteps are made to move — they wick sweat, fight odour, and offer cushioned support that performs under pressure. Whether you're lifting weights, going for a walk, or squeezing in some exercise after work, DrySteps can handle it without needing to change socks.

How are DrySteps better than cotton or wool blend socks?

Cotton absorbs sweat and stays damp. Wool is better, but can feel hot or bulky. DrySteps use a high-performance fabric blend that wicks away moisture, dries faster, and resists odour — all while looking sharp and staying comfortable. You’ll feel the difference from the first wear.

Will they feel tight around my ankles?

No — they’re designed to stay up without squeezing. The cuff has enough structure to hold its position without cutting off circulation or leaving marks.

What if I don't like them?

No stress — our First Pair Guarantee means you can try one worn pair risk-free. If you're not happy, we'll refund you.

If you’ve purchased a multi-pack, you’re still welcome to return any unworn pairs for a refund. For hygiene reasons, we can’t accept returns on pairs that have been worn, but trying one before committing is exactly what the guarantee is for.
