Let Me Upgrade You: Socks I like

Ok, I’ll admit it - this definitely is not the most glamorous idea I’ve ever had. But hear me out, I have issues when it comes to socks. I was deep in thought one morning before a workout and I realized that I have been wearing the same few pairs of gray socks for YEARS (note: they definitely were white at some point). I am so quick to ‘swipe up’ and purchase a new sweater or gadget but socks? HECK NO. Why? Maybe because they’re so… not fun to buy? I also don’t really love socks, I rarely wear them. But when I do wear them, I realize I could use some more functional, clean and preferably with less holes.If you’re like me and perhaps in desperate need of a sock upgrade, this glamorous sock post is for you. So here’s to cleaning out my sock drawer, your tootsies deserve it!

P.S. I am a US women’s size 11 and all of these work well on me.

Discovered these socks a few months ago and they have quickly become a favorite of mine and yours! They do not slip / move and fit my feet well. I will say, they do run a little high so these are best for ankle boots and higher rise sneakers. If you need an even lower rise, head on to the next!

The pro tip is to be aware of the silicone on the heel of the sock. These socks are a little “lower cut” than the previous and would work well underneath loafers and sneakers.

I shared these socks a few years ago from a partnership and they are such a genius invention. If you find yourself wearing mules and slipping / sliding out of mules, these could be a great option for you! For more unique sock solutions, check out more Ped’s here.

I recently upgraded my athletic socks to these and I was really impressed! They are on the thinner side so they are really breathable work well underneath sneakers, they also come in other fun colors.

Remember when I went camping? I fully committed to my camping outfits and came across these performance wool socks. Never did I EVER think I would spend so much money on one pair but OMG- they are GOOD! I hiked in them and they are some of my favorite socks, I wear them at least once a week!

I also found these socks on my pursuit of camping outfits and I wear these a lot more than I ever thought I would! They are incredibly warm but not too bulky, so they work well with boots!

If you’re still on the fence on if Barefoot Dreams is worth the hype, try out these socks. I wear these underneath my slippers on days I need extra warmth.

On my list next to try: Bombas. I recently connected with their team coincidentally told them I was working on upgrading my sock game. I will report back on this once I do. I’ve heard incredible things!
