Yes, you can – and should – wash your wool socks. Keeping your wool garments clean and caring for them properly can make or break their sock lifespan. However, the most important thing is that you wash your wool socks the right way so that you don’t damage the material.
This is an important question when it comes to washing your wool socks, and the answer is…sometimes. It depends on the type of wool, and this is a case where how you wash them matters — just tossing them in with whatever load you happen to be doing isn’t going to work.
First, not all wool is machine-washable. Look for a tag inside your socks to see whether your specific wool blend can be washed this way. For some wools, the fibers can shrink in a washing machine, or your detergent may contain ingredients that could start chemically breaking down the wool.
Assuming your socks are machine-washable, you’ll want to use the gentlest setting the machine has, usually called the gentle or delicate cycle. If your washing machine has a setting marked “suitable for knits,” that’s even better. Keep in mind that you’ll want to use a mild detergent if you decide to throw your wool socks in the wash — look for options designed for sensitive skin or that specifically say they are safe for delicates. Bonus points if you use a sock laundry bag.
Merino wool is a particularly popular fabric when it comes to designing wool socks — the material is very soft and finer than other wool blends. It’s also extremely breathable, doesn’t retain odors, and is moisture-wicking, making it a wonderful winter sock choice!
When it comes to how to wash merino wool socks, you have a few options. These socks can be machine-washed, so use the method above to get them clean and ready for your next adventure. However, if you really want to ensure your merino wool socks last for many years, the best method is to hand wash them.
While Merino wool tends to be the most popular material, here are some tips for washing other wool socks of varying fabric types:
No matter which washing method you use to clean your wool socks, do not put them in the dryer. It doesn’t matter what type of wool sock you have – you risk shrinking them with excessive heat. Instead, gently wring out any excess moisture, and then lay them on a flat surface to completely dry before putting them away.
Unlike cotton or other materials, wool socks actually don’t need to be washed after every wear. In fact, you don’t want to wash them that frequently, as it will drastically cut down on their lifespan. The natural properties of wool socks mean they don’t retain odors or moisture, so for the most part, you can get away with spot-cleaning them!
To spot-clean your wool socks, simply take a washcloth with a bit of detergent and water and gently dab at any areas that need to be freshened up. Don’t fully soak or submerge the sock, just focus on specific areas, and then leave them flat to dry.
That said, how often you wash merino wool socks depends in large part on how often you’re wearing them. If these are your go-to socks that you wear daily, you’ll probably want to wash them once a week. However, if you’re only wearing them for a few hours or a few times a week, consider only fully washing them once every few weeks.
Wool socks are the perfect option to keep you warm all winter long. You’ll want to have a few pairs in your sock drawer to cycle through during the cold winter months, and having a few pairs to switch between can extend the time between washing, in turn extending the life of your socks!
]]>Anybody who has worn a pair of new Doc Martens can tell you there is a significant breaking-in period of usually three to six weeks. Once you do break in a pair of Doc Martens, whether they’re boots, oxfords, loafers, or Mary Janes—they will be molded to your particular foot shape. With care, they’ll last you for years!
The first and most important way to care for your investment: wear the right socks with your Docs. If you have a brand new pair, consider setting up stages of socks for your breaking-in period. Begin with thicker socks to protect your feet from blisters and to help stretch the leather. These lightweight merino wool socks won’t bunch, and the blister tab helps protect your heel.
Once you’ve made those Docs your own, you’ll have more freedom to switch up your style and opt for thinner, more breathable pairs. Here are some pairing ideas to inspire you:
Whether you want to show your socks or not, Doc Martens are a sock lover’s shoe. You can style and restyle them, completely changing their look.
A pair of Doc Martens can last for decades with the right care. Part of that care is wearing the right sock, even when you go for the classic sockless look with Docs. Luckily, Sheec has the socks you need for all of your Doc Martens.
]]>Here’s the thing: for proper foot health and shoe care, you need to find the right sock for any shoe you wear. Most of us wear Crocs for comfort. Guess what will make them even more comfortable? The perfect socks.
Crocs are made of injection-molded foam resin, a material originally designed to keep boaters’ feet dry. While those ventilation holes will allow some air movement, your feet will stay fresher and less sweaty with some moisture-wicking protection in there. The point is, you need some socks for your Crocs, even if it’s not your ideal style choice.
Maybe you’ve just received your first pair of Crocs as they become a new kind of fashion icon. Celebrities, influencers, and even the Royal Family have appeared in Crocs recently, boosting Croc sales worldwide. If you’re looking to rock your Crocs while supporting your foot health at the same time, it’s time to think outside the box and pick the right socks for the job.
When considering whether to wear socks with Crocs, it largely depends on personal preference and the occasion. While Crocs were initially designed for boating, offering breathability and quick drying, pairing them with socks can enhance comfort and add a unique style element.
Do you think you can wear socks with Crocs? If the answer is yes, you can! Whether you choose visible, colorful socks for a fashion statement or opt for no-show socks for a cleaner look, wearing socks with Crocs is a trend that combines comfort with personal expression.
Nobody ever had more style than Diana Vreeland, and even she said that a little bad taste is like a splash of paprika. In other words, she wasn’t afraid of attracting a little attention, and you shouldn’t be, either. The number one rule of wearing socks with Crocs? Do it with purpose. You set the trend. Here are five ways to do that:
You can find a perfect pair of socks for any Crocs, whether you’re starting a trend or just searching for straight-up comfort – just make sure you check the fabric for performance, and find yourself the right fit. If you want those socks to show, go for it! But if you want a no-show option, check the sock profile and look for a low-rise option with a non-slip design.
Sheec socks offer the performance you want, with moisture-wicking fabric and styles that don’t slip off your foot. When you want a sockless look with any shoe, our no-show models give you that sockless look without sacrificing comfort.

Long socks can be difficult to fold — this category includes your athletic socks, knee socks, and other pairs that come up above the ankle. This means there is more material to contend with, so you’ll want a folding method that takes that into account.
As one of the most common types of socks that can be worn with a wide range of shoe types, there are a number of different ways to fold ankle socks. All three of the methods used for long socks will also work with ankle socks, but here are a few more to consider.
By their nature, no-show socks have less material, and therefore can be a bit more tricky to fold and organize. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t a few tips and tricks you can use to get even your tiniest no-shows neat and tidy in your drawer.
No matter which type of sock you choose, or which fold method ultimately works best for you, folding your socks will take up less room in the drawer, and be far easier to manage when you go looking for that favorite pair. But folding isn’t the only way to save space in your sock drawer. Here are a few tips for how to keep your now neatly folded socks organized:
Finally, if you’re planning to travel, knowing the best socks to take and the best ways to fold them can help ensure you have exactly what you need on your trip without taking up too much space in the suitcase. Overall, the Ranger Roll is one of the best travel folds since it ensures that all your socks are paired together in a tight bundle that won’t come loose until you’re ready to wear them. Another way to save space is to pack socks that can serve multiple purposes – like our performance-enhancing ComFits that can also be used a stylish addition to any casual or dressy outfit.
You’ll also want to pack your socks last — they can easily fit between the clothes and the side of the suitcase, or even inside your shoes, giving you plenty of space for everything else you plan to travel with.
Having a varied and organized sock drawer means you always have the best sock for the job – and you’ll always be able to find the ideal pair when you need it. Check out our guide on choosing the perfect socks and discover your perfect match.
]]>To make it easy, this list is sorted by length, from the shortest you can buy to the longest. This will help you narrow your choices down if you’re looking for a specific type of sock.
The shortest of all socks (unless we’re counting high-heel cushions), these are exactly what they sound like — half socks. These socks only cover the toes, and generally come about halfway up the foot, leaving the ankle free. Also called toe socks, these are perfect for shoes where the back is open — think sandals or clogs, for example, where the toe is closed, but the ankle is completely open, or just has a strap. These are a great option when you want to protect your toes from blisters or rubbing, while still allowing the entire sock to be hidden from view.
Like half-socks, no-show socks are designed to be worn, but not seen. With options for both women’s and men’s shoes, these socks sit low on the foot and are generally designed to cover the toes and heel, while remaining invisible behind the shoe. They are a perfect choice for dress and casual shoes of all types, providing protection from rubbing, keeping the feet dry, increasing performance, and providing a more comfortable overall experience.
Next up are ankle socks. These are also designed to be worn with lower-cut shoes like sneakers or ankle boots. They are more casual than no-show socks, as you will be able to see them. They’re perfect for occasions when you don’t mind seeing the socks, but don’t want to wear something bulky. These types of socks generally just cover the ankle, but still sit fairly low on the foot.
Quarter-length socks generally come up a bit higher than ankle socks. They provide good coverage to protect the heel from blisters and rubbing, and they’re often the choice for performance socks and use cases such as running or sports since the extra length will help them stay in place. They are another sock that is considered casual, although, depending on the material, they can also make a good professional sock to wear with full-coverage dress shoes.
Crew socks come up to the mid-calf, approximately halfway between the ankle and the knee. These are a great choice for shoes such as hiking boots or high-top sneakers, where the shoe itself comes up higher on the leg, so the protection needs to sit higher as well. These are also a great type of sock for those who like to have a pair on their feet during the cold months of the year, as they strike a good balance between coverage and flexibility.
The mid-calf sock type sits about mid-way up the calf as the name suggests — they go a bit higher than crew socks, but not quite as high as a full-calf sock. These tend to come in one of two styles — woolen or thick materials to keep the feet and legs warm, or sheer or net materials that pair well with certain types of women’s dress shoes for a fashion statement.
Full calf-length socks will come all the way up the calf, to just below the knee. These sock types are popular with athletes, as they protect most of the lower leg, while still leaving the knee to move and bend freely. Anyone who enjoys running, sports, or any high-intensity activity will find these to be a good choice for protection.
This type of sock comes up to completely cover the calf and the knee. In industries where socks are a part of the uniform — such as flight attendants, for example — knee-high socks are often the length of choice. They are also a popular choice for those looking to add a layer of warmth to their outfits during cold months, as they not only protect the foot and ankle from rubbing or blisters, but the extended length means more of the leg is insulated against the weather.
These socks extend up to about mid-way up the thigh, and often have either a garter belt or a thick elastic band to help hold them in place, and prevent rolling or slipping. The most common pairing for these socks is with skirts or kilts to provide extra protection from the elements. Many women use thigh-high socks are a fashion statement, with a wide range of patterns and colors helping to add an extra pop to an outfit. They are often worn with both shoes or boots, and pair perfectly with both.
In addition to classifying socks by length, there are a few other ways to sort your sock drawer. Here is a look at a few other types of socks you might come across, as well as a look at how they might fit into your wardrobe:
There are a number of factors to consider when choosing the right type of sock for you. Here are a few things to keep in mind:
At the end of the day, it is important to have a diverse sock drawer with a number of different types of socks that range in both length and material. If you’re looking to build out your sock options this year, try starting with a men’s variety pack or women’s assorted sock bundle to help you find just the right pair for the job.
]]>National Sock Day came about in 2016 when the clothing manufacturer A Pair of Thieves suggested a day of celebration for the noble, hardworking sock. Now every December 4th, the company pledges to donate a pair of socks for every #nationalsockday hashtag they see as we show off our favorite foot coverings, acquire new favorites, give sock gifts, and participate in other sock-related activities.
Sign me up, you say, ready to embrace the spirit of giving that is the true meaning of National Sock Day. So, how can you maximize your enjoyment of this relatively new and universally relevant day of sock celebration? You’ve come to the right place. Here’s a guide to making the most of National Sock Day.
The Egyptians and Vikings used an early form of knitting, the Romans wrapped, and the Greeks clustered some animal fur around their feet. On National Sock Day, we celebrate our modern incarnation of the foot covering human beings have been perfecting for thousands of years. No matter the geography or climate, soft foot protection has been a necessity. The word “sock” itself made its way from the Greek sykhos, which the Romans adapted to soccus. When the Romans brought the word north, the Anglo-Saxons shortened it to socc.
Makes you want to celebrate those humble little socks you’re wearing right now, doesn’t it? How about this: nylon, the genius material that allows sock elasticity wasn’t invented until 1938, a pretty long time after the Romans were figuring out the Greeks might be onto something. Before that, you’d have had to wear a contraption like a garter or walk around holding your socks up with your hands, which would have made ancient life even more difficult.
Once you know how long we’ve been trying to get socks right, you can better appreciate the miracle of modern socks. That’s what National Sock Day is all about.
This year on December 4th, show your National Sock Day spirit by wearing your favorite pair, or treat yourself to some new ones! Sheec has the ideal pair for your favorite shoes – no more shuffling through a sock drawer crowded with overworn and ill-fitting options. Choose your Sheec socks from a wide range of sizes, fabrics, and cuts.
Your socks deserve your special attention on National Sock Day. More importantly for you, appropriate care will make your socks last a lot longer. Protect your good socks and keep them in a pair with these mesh laundry bags (which are also perfect for travel). Otherwise, you might have to take part in the sock memorial during Lost Sock Day on May 9th!
If you do have some single socks, save them from their lonely sock drawer shame by turning them into fun sock puppets. Or make National Sock Day gift-worthy plushes out of them. Go classic with a Sock Monkey, or make some cute sock creatures, from narwhals to gnomes.
Upcycle old socks into useful everyday items from arm warmers to door draft stoppers. Even if you aren’t super crafty, you can make National Sock Day memorable by fashioning yourself some coffee mug warmers or dusting mitts. With enough extra socks, you can create decorative wreaths, blankets, and even rugs!
Every day is a holiday when you give socks to your loved ones! A sock bundle gift from Sheec makes National Sock Day a time to celebrate the liberation of old, worn-out socks from your wardrobe. Give the gift of sock renewal with a versatile sock assortment. Sheec socks represent the pinnacle of thousands of years of sock innovation, so what better way to celebrate?
As National Sock Day 2022 approaches, keep in mind that socks are so essential that they are the number one requested donation item at shelters.In the true spirit of the holiday, donate these much-needed articles of clothing to a local shelter near you. These versatile, long-wearing socks keep feet warm and dry.
Share the joy of National Sock Day and make a difference! Don’t forget to use the #nationalsockday hashtag to keep the giving going.
Remember that socks are one of the thousands of little things you tend to notice only if they aren’t working. On National Sock Day, feel that gratitude for socks done right, the ones that protect your feet and keep your day running smoothly. Clear out the ones you don’t wear and replace them with high quality socks in multiple fabrics and profiles.
]]>Luckily, Sheec has you covered on both fronts — socks are a fantastic gift that everyone will love, and we’ve compiled this list of fun and clever ways to wrap socks to help you take your gift to the next level. Here are 10 great ideas for how to wrap socks as a gift that will bring a smile to anyone’s face all year long.
If you plan to gift a variety of socks to a lucky person this year, consider using a decorative basket to display them. Not only will your giftee get a great bunch of socks, but they’ll also get a great basket they can repurpose in their homes. Who doesn’t love a two-for-one wrapping option?
Step 1: Line each pair up and roll them tightly together, using a piece of festive string or a band to secure them.
Step 2: Once you have all the pairs rolled, choose a basket that is just large enough to hold all of them standing up — you want the basket to be large enough to fit all your socks in snugly next to one another.
Step 3: Your goal is to arrange them so the colors and patterns complement each other, and so the end result looks purposeful.
Step 4: Finish the package with a bow on the handle of the basket, and you have a gift anyone would love to receive!
Sometimes — even though we 100% support socks being the main event of your gift — you want socks to be a supplement to another gift. In that case, consider using them as fun stocking stuffers for an extra surprise. Rather than just cram them into the stocking though, consider making them look a bit more festive. If you're aiming for maximum comfort, consider adding a pair of ComFits performance socks into the mix for an extra luxurious feel.
Step 1: Put one sock inside of the other, and then flatten them a bit, so you have a long, tube-like structure.
Step 2: Cut a piece of cardboard to carefully put into the middle of the sock roll to make it a bit stiff.
Step 3: Place those in the stocking so you can see the socks peeking out of the top.
This is a great option for when you want to gift a bundle of socks to someone in a festive way!
This is a fun way to wrap socks for any occasion, especially a birthday or graduation. It makes for a unique presentation and is sure to make everyone smile.
Step 1: Use the same rolling technique you did for the basket idea.
Step 2: Once you have all of your rolled socks, stand them up and then bunch them together in a circle.
Step 3: Fill the middle with additional pairs of rolled socks laying on their side, and then use a festive ribbon to bind everything together. For the most effective display, you’ll want to do at least two layers of the “cake,” with the bottom layer larger than the top.
Step 4: For bonus points, add a “cake topper” to the finished product.
If you — or your giftee — love getting things in jars, then don’t forget about the socks! You can create a fun presentation using any glass jar of your choice, making this a great option when you want to gift a single pair of socks.
Step 1: Line the jar with the pair of socks so you show off the color or pattern.
Step 2: Place the socks inside the jar with the toes pointed up, and then add a few extra goodies to make your gift even more special.
Things to consider including with your socks would be chocolate bars, body lotions, or perfumes.
If you love this technique but want to give several pairs of socks, don’t fear! In that case, stack them on top of each other, or use the roll technique instead to line the inside of the jar. Once the jar is full, top it off with the lid and a ribbon to celebrate the occasion.
For anyone who celebrates Christmas and wants a fun way to gift socks during the holiday season, using a Christmas cracker wrapping technique can be a fun way to slip a few pairs under the tree.
Step 1: Roll your socks as you did in the earlier techniques.
Step 2: Cut a rectangular piece of your favorite holiday wrapping paper, and place it horizontally on a flat surface.
Step 3: Place your sock roll in the center of the edge, and then roll until you reach the end, securing it with tape and leaving you with a long tube with a pair of socks in the middle.
Step 4: Carefully twist the paper on either side of your socks, creating that Christmas cracker look with the two ends left open.
Step 5: Use tape to ensure the twists don’t unravel before the big day.
Let’s be honest here, sometimes you just want to make things easier to wrap. While you can certainly play with wrapping socks in creative ways, there are times when you just want to simplify.
To achieve this look, you can, of course, use any box you want. But you can also consider getting pre-made holiday gift boxes that don’t just make wrapping easy, they make shopping easy as well! Sheec offers sock gift boxes for both men and women with the option to choose between classic or cozy styles, and either five or 10 pairs.
If you plan to give socks to a baker in your life, or you want a fun idea for a birthday party, consider making sock cupcakes. In this technique, you actually only use one sock per cupcake, so each pair will make two. This is a great way to add some whimsy to any occasion, and you can change up the colors and patterns to match the season or event.
Step 1: Take a single sock and start rolling it from the cuff, with the toe on the outside.
Step 2: Use a string or a band to secure it, but instead of around the center, tie it more toward one side.
Step 3: Fluff it up a bit, and then take hold of the cuff in the center of the roll and pull it out slightly, so you form a bit of a cone shape — it should look a bit like the icing on a cupcake.
Step 4: Place this roll with that conical side up in a cupcake wrapper, and then repeat for the other sock in the pair.
You can display these any way you would a cupcake, including using a box with a festive ribbon, on a cupcake tray, or arranged on a table.
If you want socks that come to you already wrapped and ready to gift, that’s an option as well!
Sheec offers a gold gift wrap that includes a personalized message from yours truly, so all you have to do is hand it to the lucky recipient.
Who doesn’t like to get flowers for a special occasion? But while flowers will wilt and eventually fade, a bouquet of socks will be a gift that lasts.
Step 1: Gather good number of pairs of socks, preferably in bright solid colors that complement each other, but feel free to use whatever socks your giftee will love.
Step 2: Roll each pair into an individual flower by taking a wooden stick or skewer, placing one end on the cuff, and starting to roll.
Step 3: Use a string or a band to secure the lower end of the roll, so the upper end will open like flower petals.
Step 4: Once you have all your rolls, bunch them together and use wrapping paper, tissue paper, or a vase to tie them all together.
Step 5: If you want to get extra fancy, tuck a few live flowers in among the socks before gifting your bouquet!
Finally, a simple ribbon-tied gift is a classic option.
Step 1: Roll your socks.
Step 2: Tie those rolls together with a great ribbon and a bow.
This method puts your socks on full display, but the gift still feels meaningful with the beautiful addition of the bow!
At the end of the day, socks make a great gift for everyone on your list, no matter the occasion or time of year. And if you’re looking for sock gift ideas, Sheec has the perfect sock gifts for both men and women, with individual socks and bundle options available all year long.

Socks are a great gift any time of year. They keep you cozy in winter and comfortable in summer. Whether they’re funky or sophisticated, practical or outrageous, socks are the ideal gift for any occasion: thoughtful, versatile, and practical.
But you really can’t have Christmas without socks. Socks and Christmas go way back.
Why the connection between socks and winter holidays? Exhibit A: your cold feet! But there’s more to socks and the Yuletide season. Socks are at the center of Santa’s origin story. Back in the fourth century, St. Nicholas of Myra, a man known for his generosity and good works, wanted to provide the dowry money needed for three young sisters who were otherwise too poor to become brides. Nicholas didn’t want to embarrass the family, so he visited their home by night, dropping his gifts down the chimney. Earlier that cold night, the sisters had hung their stockings by the fire so they’d be warm and dry in the morning. When they went to take their stockings down, they were ecstatic to find the bags of gold that had fallen inside.
Gifting socks for Christmas (or any holiday) shows affection, care, and hope for the future—regardless of whether there are bags of gold inside!
The deeper connection to the holiday makes socks a perfect Christmas gift, and that’s why they’ve always been a part of Christmas gift-giving. Cozy socks are a perfect present for any winter holiday, making for a gift that keeps on giving all season long. However, socks make perfect gifts for any holiday or occasion—even on no occasion at all.
A “just because” gift of socks makes a great gesture of care and comfort any time of the year. Sock gifts are universal and personal, practical and thoughtful. Here are 9 reasons why socks make a wonderful gift for Christmas (and beyond).
Socks in your sock! For size and cost, socks are always a favorite for stocking stuffing. This year, try gifting a bunch of socks inside each other as the ultimate stuffed stocking: socks in a sock in a sock. Or go all out and wow them with a men's holiday sock box or a holiday gift sock bundle for women.
You might have drawer full of silly socks from white elephant exchanges or an eccentric aunt who knits the craziest sock designs. Customizing your sock gifts with colors and designs the recipient loves is the perfect way to make your gift more thoughtful! With an assortment of colors and a stylish bag for washing (so they don’t wander off in the laundry), this women’s sock bundle comes in three different rises.
Sock gifts can show how well you know your friends and loved ones. Do they wear dress shoes for work? Do they play a sport? Do they have a collection of killer heels? Suit their tastes and interests with a selection of socks chosen just for them. Sheec has the perfect no-show sock for every type of shoe, from high heels to low-rise sneakers.
You have the socks that stay in the drawer, and you have the socks you wear again and again because they’re exactly right. Gift these nylon half socks, and any clog or mule fan’s collection will become a lot more versatile. There’s a perfect sock cut for every type of shoe, making them a perfect gift opportunity.
Pair cozy winter socks with some coordinating knit gloves or a luxurious fur throw and send your warmest wishes to everyone on your list this season. These merino wool socks keep feet warm and comfortable without bulk, and the fit is like a hug for your feet.
The gifts you love most are the gifts you use every day. Find them just the right pair of socks for Christmas, and they’ll think of you every time they put on shoes. Fans of short boots will adore these sleek, durable ankle socks designed especially for fall and winter booties.
Almost as old as the Christmas stocking is the tradition of wanting the newest, hottest tech, gadget, toy, or innovation on the market. Knock someone’s old socks completely off their feet by giving an array of no-show socks designed to disappear under any kind of modern footwear. Even within the realm of socks, innovations exist that offer the compression and cushioning of performance socks while blending seamlessly into a more formal look. These socks provide comfort, stability, and style for anybody who wears shoes. What could be a better holiday gift?
Whether you give them on their own or as part of a basket of comfort-related gifts, these fleece-lined socks would warm anyone’s heart (and, of course, their feet).
Socks are the perfect gift because we all have to have them—but we’re not always satisfied with the ones we have. And everybody loves a fresh, new pair of comfortable socks.
Those Christmas-themed glitter socks with the bells on the toes are cute, sure. But they’re the fruitcake equivalent of footwear. If you want to please everybody on your list, give them comfortable, stylish, infinitely wearable socks. Whether you’re looking for a small token of appreciation or a showstopping gift, socks will be appreciated for years to come!
]]>However, comfort and style are universal gifts that everyone welcomes with a warm heart. So, finding the best accessory gifts should make you a gift-giving winner. Let’s explore our list of accessory gift ideas that will knock anyone’s socks off!
Here are some accessories that make perfect gifts year-round. Anniversary, birthday, holiday, or “just because” – these ideas are sure to make a wonderful gift no matter the occasion!
Two things can make a woman feel and look beautiful instantly: love and jewelry. You are already giving her the first, so it’s time you show off with a gorgeous and personal jewelry piece she’s never going to take off.
Aim for a piece with a nice blend of personal, trendy, and timeless attributes. Zodiac necklaces, bracelets with messages, or handcrafted jewelry will all bring a smile to her face! Personalized jewelry gifts are the right pick for loved ones that you know more than they know themselves – that way, you can be confident about choosing the right metal and style for her.
Black is the new… well, black. We can’t think of a color and an accessory gift as versatile, elegant, and practical.
If a woman in your life needs a new closet staple for any season, any outfit, and any occasion - go for the simple black handbag as your accessory gift. It’s always a winner, especially if it’s from her favorite designer!
Everyone’s in need of stylish comfort – it looks good and it feels even better. Plus, we understand the pressure; you need a unique gift no one else was creative enough to think of (so let this be our little secret).
This women’s socks gift bundle will knock anyone’s (old) socks off. It’s a practical and useful gift idea, and these thoughtfully designed no-show socks are sure to impress. Sheec Socks fit with any shoe type or foot, stay put throughout the day, and are handcrafted to hug your feet in all the right places.
Very few things make as good of a gift as a nice wristwatch. Aside from its time-tracking qualities, this portable fashion accessory gift can complement any man’s wardrobe.
If you’re going for a timeless look, gifting a classy watch with straps is a way to go. If you’re surprising a pragmatic man, then go for a timepiece device that does more than just track time: a smartwatch. Remember to keep things classy and pick pieces that will be stylish for years to come.
Speaking of all-important accessory gifts… If the man in your life is still shockingly surviving without a high-quality belt, it’s time you give his hips something to hold on to for a while!
A slick classic leather dress belt in brown or black variants makes a genuine (and practical) accessory gift idea since most of his outfits will probably go along with those colors.
Low-cut shoes leave men with three options. First, to leave the socks out of the equation and carry on naked feet - ugh, the sweat and smell afterward... Second, wear no-show socks that slip off your heels like butter (no thanks). The best option: Sheec Socks.
Sheec's no-show sock set is one of the best accessory gifts for any man who loves wearing loafers, sneakers, or other low-cut shoes. They will never slip off his feet, and they are guaranteed to stay hidden all day.
This one might be risky if you don’t know what you’re doing. Sunglasses come in all shapes and sizes, and some styles can be unflattering on certain people. The good news is that aviator sunglasses fit square, oval, and heart face shapes like socks fit feet!
The age-old gift-giving dilemma: the risk of buying a gift the recipient doesn’t like OR gifting them the impersonal present of gift cards and coming off as lazy. Well, you can avoid fiasco and actually turn the enigma into a win-win!
Getting them a brand new, fashionable wallet pre-stocked with some gift cards to places they love is the perfect solution. Make sure to add in a Sheec gift card too! We guarantee it will bring a smile to anyone’s face.
Buying a gift for a person with an already-strong shoe arsenal? Then it’s time you help them keep their bunch in tip-top shape.
From mesh bags and foot files to shoe horns and wash bags, the superpower these shoe accessory gifts come with is their practical purpose. Find the shoe and sock care items you think their collection is missing, and offer them some sock gifts and accessories.

]]>There are gifts for feet of all sizes, for tired feet, sore feet, and even for those who spend the day on their feet. We have compiled a list of foot care gift ideas for everyone you want to pamper with a little self-care this holiday season. These foot care gift ideas also work for any special occasion year-round – or just because!
Let’s face it, feet work hard. Even if your loved ones aren’t running marathons or standing around serving customers all day, their feet are still going to be tired at the end of a long day. And while the holidays are a great time to recognize all the hard work your friends and family put in during the year, foot care gifts are a great option all year long – birthdays, anniversaries, just to say you’re thinking about them — it’s never a bad time to pamper your feet.
Here are a few gifts for the feet in your life that need a little break from daily life.
Is there anything more relaxing than a professional pedicure? Sitting back and relaxing while all the stress of the day is massaged away is a powerful self-care routine. And for many, the last few years made it challenging to indulge in a good pedicure. So, gift your loved ones an hour at a spa where they can treat their feet to a little love. They’ll come away with soft, relaxed feet that are ready to hit the ground running again.
Sometimes, just because you get a shoe in the right size, doesn’t mean it will fit perfectly right off the bat. This is where a good shoe stretcher comes into play. This foot gift means your friends and family will never have to “break in” a pair of shoes to fit their feet again! Now, every pair of shoes can be the go-to comfortable favorite, no matter how new it is.
As more and more people work from home, a foot hammock for the desk is a great gift that your friends and family will love. Now they can work in style and comfort, and let their tired feet take a break. A stylish footrest is also a great gift for people who work long hours out of this house so that they can kick back and relax once they arrive home.
Sometimes, the best foot care gift is the one that keeps on giving. Try putting together a basket of all the little luxuries that your loved ones can use to pamper themselves whenever they want. Consider including a Glass Foot File/Callus Remover, high-quality lotions or creams in scents you know they enjoy, nail clippers and files, and even a bottle of quality nail polish in their favorite color — or in clear coat if they prefer not to have color on their toes!
If your loved ones spend their days standing around on their feet, then you’ll want to get them a gift that really helps relax away the pain.
One great option is an epsom salt soak, which can help relieve tiredness and rejuvenate feet. And if you really want to pamper them, consider including a dedicated foot bath they can use with those salts anywhere they want, rather than just the bathtub. They come in all sizes, from a basic soaker, to models with massage and heating elements for feet gifts that really hit the mark.
For those on your list that aren’t a fan of soaking their feet, try a small massage ball or roller instead. These also come in a wide range of sizes and styles, and are designed to be used almost anywhere — they can roll their feet over them while sitting on the couch at the end of the night, or even bring them to work and get some relief during breaks to help keep their feet feeling fresh and pain-free.
Let's be honest — there is nothing quite like a good pair of heels to make a person feel confident. But unfortunately, for many, those amazing heels also come with the side effect of foot pain. So treat your high-heel-loving friends to a few gifts that can help ease those pressure points and leave their feet feeling as great as they look.
A foot-numbing spray actually makes a great gift for foot pain that comes with wearing heels all day long. Contrary to the name, these sprays don’t actually numb the feet — they help to reduce the redness, swelling, and discomfort of wearing heels. For most people, these sprays can make wearing heels far more comfortable for up to six hours, which makes them a great gift for people who have to wear heels at events for long periods of time.
Another great foot care gift idea for those who can’t quit their fashionable shoes are SockShion metatarsal pads, designed to absorb pressure and reduce the pain of wearing high heels for long periods of time. These pads are designed to slide over the ball of your foot, and be invisible once your shoes are in place. As a bonus, they are also antibacterial and help protect the shoe itself, so not only will your loved ones’ feet be pain-free, their favorite pair of heels will last longer as well!
Your entire list of friends and family will enjoy gifts for feet for their special occasion this year. Foot care is an essential part of wellness that many people tend to neglect, so a gift that helps them relax and feel healthier is always appreciated.

]]>You never know when you might need the right gift for your shoe lover. These gift ideas would make any occasion a foot fête, even those times when you just want to show your shoe guru a little love and appreciation!
The biggest problem for shoe lovers: you can only wear one pair at a time. Solve that dilemma with a display rack or case designed especially to feature footwear. They may not be wearing those Swarovski crystal-studded slingbacks to the market, but they can admire them every day on their own individual floating shelves in their bedroom. For a DIY route, you can turn that Ikea bookcase into shoe heaven with some custom wallpaper on the back panels—now their shoe habit is a decorative design feature!
If you’re looking for a truly unforgettable gift idea for shoe lovers: a surprise closet makeover with custom, built-in shelving for their entire shoe wardrobe! Let someone try and top that.
If you decide on a gift of shoes, you can go for a glam pair your shoe lover has been coveting, or look for a new brand that suits their style. Turn back time with some Retro Air Jordans. For a completely original gift for your sneaker lover, customize their Chuck Taylors so they’ll have the one and only pair.
Your footwear gifts don’t have to be all fashion and no function! Looking for a gift for your comfort-loving shoe fan? Get them some new pillowy-soft slides or slippers to wear around the house.
Once you have those perfect pumps or those one-of-a-kind Chucks, you need to include the perfect accessory – no show socks. Nobody wants a sneaky bit of sock peeking from their red suede stilettos, and no one appreciates when their sneakers acquire that all-too-familiar sweaty foot funk.
Shoe lovers know it takes exactly the right cut and material to craft a perfectly hidden, sweat-proof no-show. Every shoe lover owns socks that do peek through—or worse, the socks that do the dreaded heel-slip maneuver until they have scrunched into a painful knot under your foot!
If you want your shoe lover gift to be truly unforgettable, find the right no-show from the get-go. Thankfully, Sheec’s sock starter kit comes with a variety of seven perfectly engineered no-shows for every shoe, from casual sneakers and mules to dressy loafers and heels!
Sneaker collectors are often on a specific mission to find their “holy grail” pair. But you can still find perfect gifts for sneaker lovers that aren’t the actual sneakers (I mean, have you seen how much the latest Yeezys went for?).
Even if some collectors disagree, the point of sneakers is to wear them…but then they get dirty. That’s why cleaning kits make wonderful gifts for sneaker lovers! Canvas, leather, suede: these kits come in all material variations. From cloths and cleaning brushes to waterproofing and shining products—sneaker care and maintenance offers a world of gift ideas for shoe lovers. And once those shoes are clean, there are more gifts for keeping them that way, like travel bags or storage boxes.
Of all shoe collectors, sneaker mavens love to show off their shoes. Add to your sneaker lover’s display with an art print or photo of their favorite brand. Whether it’s a cool print of paint-splattered Vans on canvas or a dramatic black and white photo of Moschino two-tones, images of iconic sneakers make a great gift for shoe lovers.
Don’t forget sneakers need the perfect socks. Sheec’s casual socks come in so many varieties, your shoe lover will be always be covered, from Converse high tops to slide-on sneaker mules. For sneaker enthusiasts who seek the cushioning and compression of athletic socks but also want a sock that's polished enough for any setting, Sheec's ComFits are making this a reality.
High Heel lovers are here for the drama, the glamor, and everything in between. Let’s explore some ideas for these footwear fashionistas!
Pedicures are a must because their feet can take a beating in those high heels! It’s always a good time for the gift of foot care. High-heel wearers will love a home pedicure kit, especially with tools to make it easier to keep their feet in shape for heels.
Whether she’s into strappy sandals or thigh-high boots, she’s going to need the best file – preferably a durable glass one designed for foot care. Include Sheec’s Glass Foot File Combo in a basket with a foot peel mask, foot lotion, and a chic polish or set of nail wraps to create the ultimate DIY pedi basket!
High heels have been around since the 15th century. Give your high-heel-loving queen a piece of that history with a coffee table book, or even some high-heel figurines from the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s collection.
As long as we’ve been wearing high heels, we’ve been trying to make them less painful! Gift your high heel shoe lover with some relief: Sheec’s Sockshion metatarsal pads protect the balls of the feet from the stress and pressure that comes from high heel wear. With these babies in, she can take on whatever the day brings in style and comfort.
The shoe-obsessed loved ones on your gift list will always buy themselves more shoes, so sometimes the best gifts for shoe lovers are shoe accessories.
Find excellent presents for every shoe lover in your life at Sheec—especially with our non-slip, breathable no-show socks with options for every kind of shoe. While you’re browsing, maybe you’ll remember to get that gift for one more important shoe lover in your life: you!

We all probably know a sneakerhead, but sometimes we can't exactly figure out what to get them as a gift. While your first thought might be to get them more shoes, we have tons of other unique sneakerhead gift ideas that’ll knock their socks off.
We’ll be sharing 10 of the best gifts for sneakerheads that you can use for the holidays, birthdays, anniversaries, or any other special occasion when the sneakerhead in your life deserves a celebration. Let’s dive in!
Sneakerheads obviously love sneakers – you can help them incorporate their passion for fashion into their decor with a sneakerhead art piece. If you want to go above & beyond, a custom piece based on their favorite pair would make the perfect sneakerhead gift. If you’d prefer a ready-made gift, you can find pre-made posters, sculptures, sneaker candles, and more online!
If there’s one thing a sneakerhead needs, it’s a special place to put all of their precious kicks on display. Gifting them an organizational display for their sneakers will make the best gift for sneakerheads who are into collector's edition pairs (or those who just want to show off their vast collection). You can buy shelving or shoe racks for their room to openly store their sneakers.
Let’s face it – the sneaker lover in your life may have way too many pairs to display them all. If that’s the case, you can gift them some more inconspicuous storage options for their shoes. Instead of a shoe display, you can give them a storage rack, closet organizer, or other storage solution to help them organize their pairs that aren’t on display. Not only is this a unique sneakerhead gift, but they’ll also appreciate the practicality and functionality of this present!
Realistically, if you have a lot of sneakers … you probably need a lot of socks. Socks don’t have to be a silly or boring gift, especially for people who are into collecting shoes! Gifting something like this sock bundle is one of the best gifts for sneakerheads because it comes with three different pairs that go perfectly with any sneaker collection.
If you’re looking for a show-stopping sneakerhead gift, then opting for a custom pair of sneakers will be an amazing fit for shoe collectors. You can choose shoes that reflect their personality, matching their fashion style or branding the shoes with their favorite sports team’s colors. Either way, custom pairs make one-of-a-kind sneakerhead gifts.
Shoelaces make one of the best sneakerhead gift ideas! Shoelaces don’t have to be boring – you can even buy colored or patterned ones to give their old pairs a newer and fresher look. Plus, it’s always nice to have extra laces as backups. As another option, you can include an extra pair of shoelaces with any of these other sneakerhead gifts in order to bulk them up. Pair shoelaces with some custom sneakers, or use them as a stocking stuffer for your sneakerhead.
If the sneakerhead in your life is impartial to Nikes, these ideas are for you! These sneakerhead gifts for Nike shoe lovers are sure to be a hit.
Any sneakerhead could always use some extra apparel to rock with their shoes. Choosing Nike sets, hoodies, hats, sweatpants, workout shirts, and more can make some of the best gifts for sneakerheads who love Nike. Nike lovers will appreciate any new Nike apparel to wear with their favorite sneakers. You could even pair the apparel with a new pair of kicks as a full outfit!
Nike shoes are known for offering tons of lower coverage shoe options, which is why it’s great to have no-show socks to pair with them! Some people don’t know the full benefits of no-show socks until they try them, so they make some of the best sneakerhead gifts. If you know a sneakerhead who wears lower-cut shoes, then they’ll love these no-show socks for men’s sneakers. And for those who appreciate the health benefits like compression and cushioning, yet want a sock that pairs seamlessly with stylish, lower-cut shoes, there are great performance dress sock options out there, too.
For all the Jordan lovers out there, we’ve compiled some sneakerhead gifts for the Jordan shoe lovers in your life. Here are some of the best gifts for sneakerheads who love Jordan’s.
Jordan makes great hats, and any Jordan shoe lover will appreciate a nice accessory to go with their kicks. Choosing a hat that has the same color scheme as their sneakers can help them pair their shoes perfectly with the rest of their outfit. Plus, it’ll add another accessory piece to their wardrobe!
Some low-cut Jordans are best left worn with invisible socks, or some people might just prefer the invisible sock look that lets their kicks receive all the attention. These high-cut no-shows are the perfect length for those higher-rise Jordans. Moisture-wicking socks also make an awesome gift for sneakerheads who want to keep their shoes in clean and pristine condition!
Of course, sneakerheads love getting shoes as gifts, but socks are just as (if not even more) important! It’s a MUST to have a variety of comfortable, neutral socks to go with every pair of sneakers.

Any woman who has explored the world of no show socks (a.k.a. hidden socks, invisible socks, footies) can tell you what a hassle it is to find one that doesn’t slip off or show in your shoes. Let’s learn more about how to choose the perfect no-shows that actually stay hidden and in place all day.
When choosing a no show sock, there are so many variables to take into consideration from foot size, to shoe pairings, to even how much your feet sweat! It can all get a bit overwhelming, so we’ve created a list of the best no show socks for women based on product reviews!
The Active-X casual socks are the best no show socks for women’s sneakers because it has a reinforced toe and heel for extra durability to withstand movement throughout the day. This sock is designed with a patented SoleHugger technology to prevent slipping or the need for constant readjustment. The Active-X is also made with modal fabric which means it is antibacterial, breathable, and moisture-wicking which makes it the best sock for the gym or for walking around all day.
The Secret 3.0 Ultra Low-Cuts are the best invisible socks for women who love wearing Tieks or Rothys where your toe cleavage is visible. This hand crafted sock is complete with strategically placed silicone grips on the heel and toe to ensure the socks will stay where you want them to without slipping off and balling up beneath your foot. The Ultra Low has a cotton sole for sweat absorption and nylon sides for durability which make it an absolute must have for any flats-lover. The patented solehugger technology makes our socks one of the best no-show socks for women the market can offer.
The Secret 3.0 Mid-Cut is designed to be completely hidden in loafers and other medium coverage dress shoes. It is designed with a patented SoleHugger technology and strategically placed silicone on the heel which ensures it won’t slip off throughout the day. This sock has a cotton sole which means it will help absorb sweat and prevent foot odor. The Secret 3.0 Mid-Cuts are the best no show socks for women who typically wears loafers without socks.
When it comes to heels, oftentimes they are so low cut that even a no show sock inevitably becomes a yes show sock. The minimal elastic straps make the Sockshion the best women’s no show socks for high heels, while the durable plush cushion gives it the added bonus of preventing pain on the ball of your foot!
The Sockshion is antibacterial and washable (preferably in a laundry mesh bag) which makes it the perfect alternative to gel inserts that remain stuck in your shoes collecting bacteria and destroying your expensive shoes.
The problem with most toe cover socks is that there is nothing to anchor them to your foot. The best part of the Slingback is the clear elastic band that wraps around your heel to prevent slipping off. This sock is the perfect way to provide as much coverage as possible so you can prevent blisters and foot odor while absorbing sweat, making the Slingback one of the best women’s no show socks for positive foot health!
The best women’s no show socks for people with sweaty feet are the Active-X Low-Cut: a thin, breathable sock which means it is perfect for airing out moisture.This sock is made of modal fabric which is moisture-wicking and helps to prevent bacteria growth inside your shoes. The Low-Cut is designed with a patented SoleHugger technology to prevent any slipping or need for constant readjustment throughout the day.

If you’ve ever worn invisible socks with slip on shoes and sneakers, you know that most of them slip off before you’ve taken your first step. You could try going sockless, but that of course leaves you vulnerable to blisters and foot odor!
Wearing socks with slip on shoes prevents painful blisters, odors, and potential foot discoloration from dyes. We always recommend putting on a comfortable sock when wearing your slip ons. It’ll keep your shoes smelling nice, and keep you from experiencing the pain that occurs when your bare feet rub around inside them.
If you’re looking to pair dependable, no-show socks with slip on sneakers that won’t slide off or show (even in your lowest cut shoes) look no further than Sheec’s Active-X sock collection.
The Active-X is available in low, mid, and high-cut to offer the perfect invisible sock option for Rothy’s slip-ons, converse, Nike’s, and everything in between.
By choosing the right coverage, you can wear any sneakers or slip ons with socks that stay hidden and in place all day.
The Active-X low-cut is perfect for fabric-lined, slip on shoes like TOMS and any other casual shoes that have a wider opening with lower sides.
You can wear our Active-X mid-cut socks with slip on shoes like Vans or lower-coverage Converse.
Our Active-X high-cut socks pair wonderfully with full-coverage sneakers like your Nikes or Adidas shoes.
Unlike most brands which offer only one size that is meant to fit everyone, the Active-X is available in six different sizes for women U.S. shoe size 3.5-15. This extended sock sizing helps prevent the sock slippage that we are all too familiar with when it comes to no-shows.
You can easily find the perfect fit by measuring the widest part of your foot and comparing it with the Sheec socks size chart.
The Active-X is designed with patented SoleHugger sock technology that prevents any and all slipping off the foot. This technology involves a special stitching technique which causes the sock to scrunch in on itself when it is not being worn, as opposed to lying flat down like other socks.
The Active-X is also complete with advanced silicone grips on the heel which stabilize the sock and keep it in place while you walk.
If you’re looking to pair the best no-show socks with slip on shoes and sneakers, Sheec’s casual socks are the perfect invisible solution.
As a person with large or petite feet, you’re probably tired of seeing no show socks that say “One size fits all, U.S. Women 5-10.” We all know this isn’t true.
If you’re struggling to find no show socks for large feet or small feet, we’ve got you covered. Whether you’re looking for petite or plus size no show socks, we have the best no-show socks for women U.S. sizes 3.5-15!
If you’re rocking a fabric-lined, casual slip on shoe like TOMS, the Active-X Low-Cut is the perfect sock to pair with it. The Active-X is one of our antibacterial socks with moisture-wicking properties. It’s also ultra soft which makes it the perfect sock for everyday wear. It is designed with our special sock technology to prevent slipping off and is complete with a reinforced toe and heel for extra durability. Our Active-X casual socks are available up to size XXL, making them a perfect option if you’re looking for plus size no show socks for your casual slip ons.
For a fabric-lined, somewhat low coverage sneaker such as converse, the Active-X Mid-cut is your best friend. It is antibacterial, moisture-wicking, and ultra soft, making it the perfect sock for everyday wear. It is designed with special technology to prevent slipping off and is complete with a reinforced toe and heel for extra durability. If you’ve been searching for no show socks for small feet, the Active-X mid-cut is available down to size XS!
The Active-X High-Cut pairs perfectly with full-coverage sneakers such as Nike or Adidas. Just like the other Active-X socks, it is antibacterial, moisture-wicking, and ultra soft, making it the perfect sock for everyday wear. It is designed with special technology to prevent slipping off, a reinforced toe and heel for extra durability, and arch support for extra comfort.
Super small or large feet can prove a real problem when looking for dressier shoes. What’s even worse is that when you finally find the perfect pair, you have no socks to wear with them! When you’re looking for any leather-lined dressy shoe, our Secret 3.0 dress socks are your best bet. These socks are available in Ultra Low, Low, Mid, and High-Cut to offer the perfect coverage match in whatever shoe you’re rocking. They are also specially designed to prevent slipping on your heel which makes them a go-to for anything from the office to date night and everything in between. From S - XL no show socks, Sheec allows you to find the perfect size for your foot and ensure your socks stay hidden all day long.
No matter what size you wear, we all know that flats are the comfiest shoe you can own. The Secret 3.0 Ultra Low-Cut is the perfect sock to pair with any shoe where your toe cleavage or arches are partially visible. It pairs perfectly with Tieks and Rothys, and can also be worn with most high heels. The Secret 2.0 is designed with a special technology that prevents slipping off and moving around in the shoe, making it an absolute wardrobe staple!
The ComFits line offers the best of both worlds: the athletic performance you crave and the dressy aesthetic you desire. Designed with special compression and cushioning features, these socks are optimized for foot health and comfort while being amplified by Performance Tech.
They blend seamlessly with both athletic and formal footwear, making them a versatile choice for those who demand more from their socks.
At Sheec, we know picking the right size is an essential component of finding invisible socks that actually stay on. That’s why we set out to design women's extended size no show socks made for every type of foot.
Whether you’ve been searching for no show socks for large feet or small feet (and anything in between) Sheec has you covered. Explore all of our women’s invisible socks to find your new favorite pair.
So how do we wear high heels without risking long-term high heel foot damage? The answer is metatarsal pads! Cushions like these can help you avoid ball of foot pain after wearing heels, and help keep you comfortable while you’re wearing them. Ball of foot cushions are the perfect alternative to gel inserts because they don’t get sticky or unsanitary like the non-washable inserts do.
Here’s how the SockShion helps keep you protected from permanent foot damage from heels while staying invisible & stylish at the same time.
We all know the aching ball of foot pain after wearing heels for an extended period of time. The SockShion is a durable foam pad that sits under the ball of your foot, and its ergonomic design works to absorb pain where you need it most and protect you from long-term high heel foot damage. It also helps to prevent blisters in both heels and flat sandals.
The SockShion is designed with minimal elastic straps to keep it in place and prevent moving around. The Sockshion is available in cream and black which allows you to pair perfectly with light and dark colored heels and sandals.
The SockShion is available in small, medium, and large, which covers women’s U.S. shoe sizes 5 - 11.5. To find your perfect size, measure the widest part of your foot and compare it with our Sheec socks size chart.
Unlike gel inserts that stick in your shoe, the Sockshion is made with antibacterial fabric to minimize bacteria growth in your shoes. You can also machine wash the SockShion with laundry mesh bags, allowing for long-term use!
At Sheec, we stand behind our products. If you try the Sockshion and are not completely happy with anything, send us an email and we will happily assist you with an exchange or refund.
Caring for your no-show socks the right way can drastically extend their lifespan. To help you make the most of your favorite pairs, we’ve created the no-show laundry guide so you can learn the best way to wash socks, how to dry socks, and enjoy your socks for years to come!
We get a lot of questions about the best way to care for our Sheec socks. As a general rule of thumb, they should be cared for just like any other delicate in your closet. You can use the washing machine as long as you take a few extra steps to protect your socks!
We know washing all of your laundry together can help save you time and money, but washing socks with clothes isn’t always the best option.
We recommend washing your socks separately if you prefer to use warm or hot water for your clothing items. However, if you’re washing socks with clothes that also require a cold cycle, laundering them together is fine!
At Sheec, we prefer to air dry our no-show socks. If you want to use the dryer, we recommend tumble drying your socks on NO heat to help maintain their integrity.
Washing on the cold cycle and air drying your Sheecs protects the high cotton concentration and helps to keep your silicone grips good as new for as long as possible.
No show socks are very small, which makes them the perfect candidates for dryer-consumption. We've lost enough of our socks to the wash, which is why we've expanded our collection of laundry bags for our no show socks.
Our no-show laundry mesh bags keep your socks safe in the laundry machine, offering a foolproof way to make sure you take out every sock you put into the wash. We offer three different size laundry bags with three different size holes for varying levels of dirtiness.
Now that you know how to wash socks the Sheec way, you’ll be able to enjoy your favorite pairs for even longer. When in doubt, always COLD HAND WASH and AIR DRY your no-shows to keep them looking good as new!
High heels and socks have been back in style for a while now, but let's face it, we’re not all ready for it. We know we need socks to prevent bacteria growth and odor in our shoes, but high heels and bare legs is a classic look and we can’t just forget about it.
For ladies who want the comfort and protection of a sock, without losing the sleek style of a sockless heel, look no further than Sheec. Sheec makes the absolute best no-show socks for high heels. They offer a different style for every type of shoe that won’t show or require readjustment throughout the day because of the special technology used to engineer them.
The Secret 3.0 Low-Cut is the perfect sock for heels and wedges with a more classic design. The standard heel is one that does not show any toe cleavage or side arch.
If you’re looking for socks to wear with heels that are a little more open where you can see your toe cleavage or side arches, the Secret 3.0 Ultra Low-Cut is perfect for you.
Pros:
Sheec was the first company to put a sock this low on the market. Unlike alternatives such as Bombas or Gekks, the Secret 2.0 socks are not knitted. They are handcrafted with a patented SoleHugger technology that cannot be replicated. This technique prevents them from slipping off your foot which ensures the cotton part will stay covering your entire sole for continuous sweat absorption, making them the perfect socks for high heels.
Visible toes make the peep-toe undoubtedly one of the hardest shoes to find a sock for. If you’re looking for socks for heels with open toes, your best bet is the Sockshion metatarsal pads!
At the end of the day, if you’re wearing your shoes, they’ll never be completely bacteria free. There are, however, certain products that can help to significantly reduce the rate of bacteria growth and keep your feet safe from the potentially harmful effects of excess bacteria.
Taking the time to research the products that you invest in and put on your body can make a world of difference in the long run.

Do you just wear socks as a fashion statement? Or simply wear them for warmth on colder days? Then it may come to a surprise to you that you should especially be wearing socks in summer!
Why wear socks in summer? Because on average, your feet sweat about half a pint a day! So every day, you are accumulating about half a pint of sweat from your feet inside your shoes if you are wearing closed toed shoes. And it goes without saying that most people will sweat more in the summer. So without socks in the summer, you are exponentially increasing your chances of foot diseases including foot fungus, smelly feet, smelly shoes, AND ruining your shoes.
We get that sometimes you don’t want to wear socks in the summer. After all, it seems counter-intuitive. You’re hot; you don’t want to wear another “layer” on your feet. But now that you know that you SHOULD, what are the best socks to wear in summer? No-show socks are the CLEAR answer here, and no other brand does them better than Sheec.
When considering which socks to wear in summer, you’ll want to pair your sock type with the shoes you wear. Sheec has a no show sock for EVERY single type of summer shoe that you could possibly wear! We know some shoes have a more casual fit, such as sneakers, allowing room for socks, while other shoes are more “formal” and wouldn’t really be something you would think a sock would fit in. At Sheec, all of our no-show socks are designed with the shoe type in mind. So they are definitely NOT like any kind of bulky sock you are thinking of.
Are you looking for socks for your casual fit shoes?
Quick tip: “casual fit” shoes are usually fabric lined shoes such as sneakers or casual slip-on shoes. For shoes like these, we would recommend the SoleHugger ACTIVE-X line! There are three coverage types available for these socks: low-cut, mid-cut, and high-cut.
Why? Because you’re more likely to do more strenuous activity with your “comfortable” shoes.
1) Antibacterial Fabric: While you can machine wash some of your shoes, washing them can also shorten the lifespan of your shoes. Instead, protect your shoes & your feet with antibacterial socks! If you normally sweat a lot in your shoes, antibacterial fabric is the best material for socks in summer.
2) Reinforced Toe & Heel: While these socks aren’t sports socks, they are reinforced at the toe & heel to make them last longer.
3) Non-slip GUARANTEE: With an extended silicone sole grip, not to mention the advanced stitching method to have the socks hug your soles, these socks won’t slip off!
What about your vast number of other “summer” shoes that are leather lined or dressier? We’ve got FOUR different coverages for all of the different vamps that flats, loafers, & other dress shoes come in! Our Secret 3.0 line has the best socks to wear in summer when you’re going for a dressier look.
1) Skin like Sleek liner socks: The Secret 3.0 line is designed to be a thin, durable sock that won’t affect the fit of any shoe but is also guaranteed to be no-show, while providing the protection your feet need to prevent blisters.
2) Durable & Reinforced: All of the Secret 3.0 socks sport a durable, nylon body, and the low-cut, mid-cut, and high-cut socks are reinforced at the toe.
3) Cotton Sole: You’ll want something to take care of your sweaty feet. The soles are cotton to make sure that you’ve got a protective layer between your foot and your shoe, absorbing your sweat!
4) Seamless Edges: Using patented technology, we’ve managed to make sure that the finishing details of the socks are comfortable for all day wear.
5) Non-slip GUARANTEE: The socks are designed to hug your soles (the socks WILL feel snug and need a little bit of time to mold to your feet) and have strategic silicone grips!
You’ll want the right about of coverage for the shoes you have, and we’ve got FOUR coverage types to fulfill those needs! If you go too low for the type of shoe you have, you’re not protecting your feet, but if you don’t go low enough, the socks will show.
Now that you know the benefits of wearing socks in summer, find out what socks were designed for your specific type of shoes with our no-show sock guide!
We certainly aren’t the first brand to claim they made no show socks that won't slip down. Many a hope has been raised, and many a dollar wasted by the empty promises of sock stability. This is why Sheec was founded. Especially as a small business, we rely almost exclusively on customer satisfaction. We don’t just claim to sell no show socks that actually stay on, we guarantee it. Here's how.
At Sheec...and everywhere else… one size size simply DOES. NOT. FIT. ALL!
Here’s a little sock industry terminology for you, it’s called the Sock Form. This is the enigmatic size that sock scientists have discovered that allows any foot of any length, width, or height to fit into one singular size.
At Sheec, we recognize that this simply makes no sense, so we don’t use those “standard” sock forms. Instead, we use real people’s feet to create a wide range of our own sock forms so that we can provide our customers with extended sock sizes that fit ALL feet.
No matter how long and narrow, how short and wide, how high the arch or how irregularly shaped the heel (what?) we create socks in sizes that work with your feet. We take into consideration how different styles and material compositions will have different elasticity and will fit differently. This is why each of our sock styles has its own specific size chart.
Our socks cover women’s U.S. shoe size 5-14 and men’s U.S. shoe size 6-12.5, and we’re still not satisfied! We are constantly testing and tweaking, constantly working to expand sizes and encompass more feet.
We really strive to be a brand that works with the customer. If you have difficulty finding socks in your size, even on our own site, reach out to us! We are always looking for new members for focus groups to help us create the ideal socks.
Believe it or not, the material of the socks you wear with specific shoes also plays a role in them staying up, or sliding off. Shoes have different inner linings, different ways of fitting on the feet, different insoles, etc. which all lead to different friction points.
What we’re trying to say is that different types of shoes require different types of socks. This is why we create our own blend of fabrics to pair seamlessly with different types of shoes, making for no show socks that actually stay on, no matter what shoe you’re wearing.
We have two main styles of socks for both men and women. The first is the Secret 3.0 collection which are thin liner socks for dressy shoes such as Tieks, Rothys, Oxford loafers, or high heels. Our other style is the Active-X collection which are ultra-soft modal socks designed for casual shoes.
The Secret 3.0 socks are designed with a patented SoleHuggingTM technology which means they will be snug out of the package and then expand to perfectly hug your feet. The unique stitching technique has small spaces between each stitch which allows for the expansion.
The Active-X socks are knitted, which makes them more elastic. You can see how they won’t fall off by looking at the way they bunch up when you take them off your foot. Rather than lie flat, the Active-X socks scrunch inwards, just like they do when you are wearing them.
The final way we ensure our product doesn’t slip off is by equipping our socks with silicone grip. Now, just about every no show brand uses silicone grips. However, with a lot of brands, the silicone grips simply don’t do enough. Oftentimes they are just too small to do anything or too poorly attached to survive the washing machine. Many brands also fail to acknowledge how different material compositions and usage of the socks will require different types of silicone to be effective.
How do we know so much? Because we were one of the first brands to create socks with silicone grip, and we continue to be one of the leaders in coming up with different types of grips.
All of our socks have a silicone grip that wraps around the heel, ensuring complete stability. Some of our lower cut ones such as the Secret 3.0 Ultra Low Cut and Secret 3.0 Low Cut have a silicone grip at the toe as well to prevent movement of the socks from the front of your feet. The Secret 3.0 uses a flat silicone grip which works better with the nylon material. The Active-X uses a multi-directional thicker grip which allows you to be more “active” in your casual shoes without having to worry about slippage!
We understand you may have been hurt by the false claims of past no shows, but we aren’t them. We are in the business of customer satisfaction. We offer a no-hassle return policy because we know we create the best no show socks that don't slip down. If you are new to Sheec you can try us today for 15% off when you sign up for our newsletter.

Shoe insoles are an important step in your foot care routine, but they definitely have their downsides. While gel high heel inserts can help your feet, they also need to be stuck into your shoes, which can completely ruin them!
The SockShion is the alternative to those sticky high heel shoe inserts. The Sockshion is an antibacterial, washable, and ergonomic high heel cushion protector that sits under the ball of your foot to prevent pain just like the typical gel high heel inserts, but without any of the mess!
Remember all those times your mom told you to sit straight? Turns out, your feet had more to do with it than you think. According to research called The Relationship Among Foot Posture, Core and Lower Extremity Muscle Function, and Posture Stability, foot posture affects the overall posture of a person. This correlation has significance as a person’s posture is connected to things such as back pain, knee pain, fatigue, mood, and breathing efficacy, among many others.
We understand the seriousness of such issues and therefore have designed the SockShion. We know that when you are wearing shoes, especially heels, the weight of your body gets shifted to the ball of the foot, which can harm your back, knees, and hips. So, not should you wear high heel inserts for comfort - it can also improve your posture and overall health! With the SockShion, you can release the pressure onto the cushion, ensuring that your feet are pain-free and a proper posture is maintained, no matter what types of high heels you plan on wearing.
If you wear heels often without the proper support, you can suffer from long-term foot damage from high heels. For conditions such as Metatarsalgia and Morton’s Neuroma, which cause pain on the ball of the foot between the bases of the toes, WebMD suggests gel high heel inserts to alleviate pain.
However, we recommend SockShion, a cushion that provides comfort right on the ball of the foot. Unlike high heel shoe inserts that can easily become misplaced in your shoes, you can rely on SockShion to stay in place; it hooks onto your big and little toe to stay secure and hidden and has silicone non-skid patches to prevent slipping inside of the shoe.
Some essential parts of footcare are cleanliness and preservation. But you may be wondering, what do those have to do with shoe insoles, or even SockShion?
While shoe insoles can provide your feet with comfort, they fall short in the cleanliness department. Insoles cannot be cleaned easily, causing your feet to be exposed to unsanitary conditions inside your shoes! On the other hand, SockShion is extremely easy to wash.
We all want our favorite pair of shoes to last a bit longer in our lives. At Sheec, we understand that sentiment completely, and have designed SockShion to not only care for your feet, but also your shoes.
If you know of the no slip high heel inserts by Dr. Scholl’s, you know they are most known for their ability to stick to your shoes, so they don’t get misplaced or cause any discomfort during use. However, those insoles can damage your shoes simply because of their stickiness. And once stuck, they also cannot be readjusted for your comfort.
SockShion’s versatile quality helps your feet get comfortable in any shoe, and its antibacterial fabric keeps your shoes and feet clean and fungus-free! Explore Sheec’s socks for high heels and feel the difference.

Nothing is more annoying or uncomfortable than when your socks pop off of your heel and slide around in your shoe. If you're tired of your invisible socks slipping off, you've come to the right place! There could be several culprits behind your no-show sock slippage – anything from low quality material to the wrong sock size can cause that slipping, sliding, and bunching.
Here at Sheec, we’re dedicated designing no show socks that never slip off, so we know a thing or two about what it takes to keep your invisible socks secure. Keep reading to discover why your socks might be sliding off, and learn how to keep your no shows in place for good, all thanks to no show socks that don't slip down.
If your no show socks keep slipping off, there are a few common culprits:
Here at Sheec, we’ve spent years learning how to make no show socks stay on all day. These are the 5 things that we’ve found are essential if you want to know how to keep no-show socks from slipping off heels and into your shoe.
Different types of shoes require different types of invisible socks. If your no show socks keep slipping, you might need to choose a better fabric to reduce these friction points.
If you’re wearing a dressy shoe such as a ballet flat, loafer, or high heel you need a snug thin dress socks with smooth fabric that will simply glide against the smooth walls of your shoe.
If you want to see how to keep socks from slipping in a sneaker or casual shoe, you need a sock that will be able to withstand your day-to-day activities. Our soft modal socks are knitted in a way that hugs your feet, so they can hold up to extra physical activity.
Once you’ve got your right material, you need to make sure you have selected the right amount of coverage!
The answer isn’t just find the lowest coverage sock. If a sock is too low in a shoe with more coverage, you leave yourself vulnerable to excess friction and ensure that your socks will bunch up underneath your feet before you walk out your front door. (Not to mention the painful blisters that this will cause!)
This might seem obvious, but often the reason behind sock-slippage is that they don’t fit your feet properly.
When trying on invisible socks, it's important to pay attention to how they fit around the heel and the arch of the foot. The sock should fit snugly without feeling too tight, and it should stay in place even during physical activity.
If you're wearing a one-size fits all invisible sock and they’re slipping off, there is a high probability that it is because the size isn’t right for you. To ensure a proper fit, it's important to choose invisible socks that come in different sizes or are designed to fit specific foot sizes.
This is why at Sheec, we design our socks based on shoe size. We offer extended sock sizes for women size 5-14 and men size 6-12.5 so our customers can find their perfect fit. If you’re unsure which size to buy, check out our women's size chart or men's size chart to find the best fit for you. If you’re unsure which size to buy, our customer service team will be happy to help.
All no-show sock wearers agree that silicone is absolutely essential if you want to stop socks from sliding down. However, not all silicone grips work as well.
Just like different shoes require different materials, different materials require different silicone designs and placement of the grips.
Some brands use silicone dots or lines placed strategically around the heel and ball of the foot to provide extra grip, while others use wider silicone strips that wrap around the entire circumference of the sock. The effectiveness of these grips can also depend on the type of shoe you're wearing, as well as the material of the sock itself.
At Sheec, we design our invisible socks to stay on your feet! This means we make sure all 8 of our socks are complete with the perfect silicone grip for the activity performed in each type of shoe.
If you’ve been wearing your invisible socks for a while and they are starting to slip when they didn’t used to, you should check the grips.
Is there something stuck to them like pet hair or dust? Are your natural body oils or lotion creating a slippery service that prevents gripping?
If you think something may be on your silicone, try taking an alcohol swab or baby wipe to it and see if you can get it back to its original sticky state. Make sure you don’t put on lotion on the part of your heels where any silicone grip will be touching right before putting on your socks.
Many factors can negate the effect of a non-slip grip, no matter how technologically advanced the sock is. Our no-show sock laundry guide has all the tips you need to properly wash and dry your Sheecs.
Unfortunately, even the best invisible socks were not made to last forever. With continuous wear silicone grips become weaker, fabric loses some of its elasticity, and holes begin to form. If your socks aren't performing the way they used to, it's time to Let Go.

You know the deal with no-show socks. Conceptually, they're great! In reality, you can't find a good pair of socks to wear with Rothys or Tieks that won’t peek through. And when you think you did, you spend your entire day painfully aware of your socks sliding down your heel inch by inch. I mean, how do you wear socks with Rothys and Tieks if you have to deal with these issues? It's honestly easier to not even wear socks, right? WRONG!
We know it is virtually impossible to find an ultra low-cut sock that stays on, but not wearing socks simply isn't an option. Not just for foot care, but for shoe care! This is why we have engineered socks for Rothys and other low cut shoes that stay invisible, and most importantly, ACTUALLY STAY ON! Her Magazine calls the Secret 2.0 Ultra low-cut socks "stunning".
It doesn't matter how low cut your shoe is, we have the best no show socks for every shoe. It's taken years of constantly improving, but our Secret Ultra Low Cut is officially the lowest cut to stay on most feet, and most comfortable sock on the market. No matter how low cut your shoes are, Sheec socks will stay on and allow you to focus on what is really important (which is really anything other than your socks sliding off your feet). Because of the super low rise design, our Secret line makes the best socks for Tieks, Rothys, and other low-cut options.
We were so confident in this design that we launched this product back in 2018 through Kickstarter & Indiegogo. Not only were we successfully backed, we successfully surprised our backers by delivering on our promise of being no-show and non-slip!
We're proud to say that we've saved thousands of women's feet and their shoes. Will you be the next one? Explore all of our women’s no show socks to get started.
If you've worn toe cover socks (a.k.a. half socks, quarter socks, backless socks) you know that they're great in theory, but in practice don't exactly stay on as long as we'd like them to. Finding socks for open back shoes is hard enough, but then once you finally think you’ve discovered the perfect pair, they won’t stay put!
If you want to know how to keep half socks on, there isn’t a magic sock hack to keep them from slipping. The key to keeping your half socks in place is choosing the right product that’s designed for maximum comfort and stability.
The Slingback toe cover socks are the solution to this issue! The slingback is a seamless toe cover sock, with a clear elastic band that goes around your heel. This band keeps the socks in place, without showing in shoes with a heel strap.
Our Slingbacks are the perfect socks to wear with slingback heels! The strap is designed to fall right where slingback heel straps fall to keep it completely hidden while still giving you all of the support of a sock. The clear elastic material makes the back of the sock virtually invisible, but you don’t have to worry about your socks slipping down constantly.
The Slingback socks are available in black and cream in small, medium, and large which cover women's U.S. shoe size 5-12! (We all know one size doesn't fit all!)
With multiple sizes and colors to choose from, you’re guaranteed to find the best socks to wear with slingback heels that fit your feet seamlessly – and actually stay on your feet.
