“Great socks for someone who hates socks.”
Sarah calls herself someone who hates socks. She wears these for workouts and lounging, and says they felt cool and didn't overheat her feet.

The leg
The arch band
The flat toe seam
If you've ever had a sock slowly slide down into your boot while you're walking somewhere, you'll get why this is here.
There's a soft band knitted around the middle of the foot that keeps the sock in place, so it stays put in trainers, loafers and boots.
Most of us have had a seam rub across our toes halfway through a workout and spent the rest of it thinking about nothing else.
The seam on these is flat, so there's no ridge to feel in a squat, on a long walk or in your favourite yoga pose.
This is where the scrunch comes from. There's enough length to push it down over your trainers or pull it up under a boot, and it stays wherever you leave it.
The knit is light and smooth with a soft sheen, which is why so many reviewers say their feet stay cool. Just so you know, it's a lighter sock than the thick cotton slouch kind.
The things people usually ask before they order.
They're on the lighter side. The leg is a fine, smooth knit with lots of stretch, so they fit in trainers, loafers and boots without feeling bulky. If you're after a chunky cotton slouch sock, these are a lighter take on it.
They're one size, made for US women's 5 to 9. The knit stretches enough for slimmer and fuller calves, so you can slouch them down or pull them all the way up. If you have very small ankles, the arch band might sit a little forward on your foot.
They do. The band around the arch keeps the foot in place, and the leg stays wherever you leave it. If yours keep sliding down or digging in, let us know and we'll replace them.
They run cool. Lots of reviewers mention that their feet don't overheat, even in boots. In winter they're easy to layer under boots without feeling heavy.
You shouldn't. The seam is flat, so there's nothing rubbing across your toes during a workout.
That's the soft sheen of the knit, plus being packed tightly for shipping. One reviewer said hers looked a little plastic-like when she opened them, then relaxed and looked much more natural after the first wash.
Wash them cold and inside out, in a mesh bag if you have one, then let them air dry. Skip the dryer, bleach and fabric softener, since heat and softener wear down the stretch over time.
They're made to last, wash after wash. If a pair fades, pills or loses its shape within 60 days, we'll replace it.
