Stop. Blistering.

Skinnys orthotic-style liners work under (or in place of) your socks for the best blister-free shoe fit ever.

Select Your 👟 Sock Style

Shoes come in standard sizes, but feet don't

Footwear that leaves an "air gap" around your heels can rub, pop off, and cause blisters.

That's why we developed extra-thick Skinnys with GripWrap™.

Skinnys Padded No-Shows

Our Secret: 3x-padded heel counters with gel GripWraps™ + either a cuffed or spandex ankle band.

(Kiss those blisters goodbye.)

Of course, we started with premium hosiery thread, wove it into an extra-low-cut contour, and sewed in special stay-on features to keep these extra thick no-show socks secure and tight.

In short, Skinnys are custom-designed to both stay on your heel and keep your heel in your shoe.

    Blister-free heels

    Specially constructed with a triple-thick heel counter to ensure a snug fit, right where it matters. If you've given up on slip-ons or live with daily blisters, these are for you.

  • Super-invisible contour

    We took the lowest-cut pair of no-show socks we could find... and cut ours even lower. Now you can even wear loafers with socks and leave the discomfort behind.

    Spandex + wraparound GripWrap™

    Sockmakers are stingy on the grips. GripWraps™ contain twice as much silicone and contour it all the way around your heel wall, so your sock (and foot) stays firmly in your shoe.

    How to find socks with actual heel padding —  Hint: You have to turn them inside out

    Most so-called "padded socks" on the market usually provide too much thickness in the areas you don't need it (toe box and sole) and annoyingly underpad the outer heel walls.

    A big secret: the only way to learn how a sock is structured is to turn it inside out.

    What are “specialty socks” and why are they more expensive?

    One question we're sometimes asked is why Skinnys cost what they do, when generic socks can be had for a few bucks a pair.

    It really comes down to what it takes to produce Skinnys and the fact that they're manufactured in more limited quantities.

    They're a little pricier, but you won't find this type of product anywhere else.

  • Foot slipping out of a loafer at the heel

    Why do shoes slip at the heel?

    Why do shoes slip at the heel?

    Simply put, most shoe manufacturers design their shoes for "average" heels, even though around 25% of us would benefit from a slimmer-designed heel cup.

    For those of us in the narrower group, off-the-shelf shoes often have heel cups that just have too much space—too much air—leaving a gap between the shoe and our heel. For non-padded shoes (dress shoes, loafers, boat shoes, etc.), there's even less room for error. And so our shoes slip off our feet.

    Will extra-thick no-show socks tighten my shoe fit?

    Why are all no-show socks paper thin, and could they be used to make loose shoes fit a bit tighter?

    For those of us who need a tighter shoe fit—because we blister in our heels or because our feet pop up or slip out of our shoes—thin socks simply won't cut it.

    We need the most padded no-show socks we can find, especially in the heel area!
