Best Women's Socks Buying Guide
Socks are often one of the most underappreciated pieces of clothing in a wardrobe. Daily use, however, can wear down women's socks and hosiery. Keep your sock supply full with women's socks from Sam's Club. With socks for a range of shoe sizes, styles and needs, you're sure to get the best socks for you.
What Different Types of Women's Socks Are There?
If you never think about it, you may not realize how many different types of socks are available. Most different types of women's socks are made for different purposes, providing comfort for various types of shoes. If you're finding that your shoes are giving you discomfort, you may want to try out a different style of sock to see if that helps.
Some types of socks available at Sam's Club include:
- Ankle Socks: These socks end right above or below the ankle and may also be called quarter socks. Depending on the type of shoes you're wearing, you may see a couple of inches of the sock above the top of the shoe.
- No-Show Socks: these low-cut socks, also called anklet or no show liner socks, are designed to offer comfort for your feet while walking without being visible outside of your shoe. Some no-show socks are specifically made for use under high heels and are often ultra light. There are also cushion no show socks that are hidden but have padding.
- Athletic Socks: Made for comfort while running, walking or playing a sport, athletic socks or sport socks are usually made from materials that will help wick away moisture. Many athletic socks come with padded arch support to help reduce foot pain when exercising.
- Hiking Socks: Women's socks made for hiking are often thick and made from moisture-wicking materials like wool. Hiking socks also tend to sit higher up the leg than other types of socks. The thick material and tall design help protect your legs from bugs, scrapes, and blisters when you're out on the trail.
- Crew Socks: Crew socks, sometimes trouser socks, are the classic women's socks. Crew socks sit about halfway up the calf and are mostly worn with shoes that go above the ankle.
- Compression Socks: Compression socks are a type of medical hosiery that provides consistent support throughout your legs and encourage blood flow from your feet up to your legs. They can be especially beneficial for women with low circulation in their legs.
- Knee High Socks: Knee socks are knee high and are often worn so the socks are visible. Many women choose knee socks when wearing skirts or dresses.
What Are the Most Common Materials for Women's Socks?
Most women's socks are made from soft materials that help to prevent moisture and add comfort to your shoes. Sock materials are also used to help reduce or prevent blisters caused by your foot rubbing against your shoe. Types of materials that are used for women's socks include:
- Cotton
- Wool
- Nylon
- Polyester
What Are the Best Women's Socks?
Finding the best socks for you depends on a number of factors. You'll want to consider what types of activities you do during the day. You'll also need to think about what types of shoes you normally wear. Ask yourself these questions when purchasing new socks:
What are the best winter socks?
The best socks for winter are usually made of a thick material to help battle the cold. Socks made from wool or thick cotton can help reduce the amount of cold air that reaches your feet. Winter socks should also help reduce the amount of moisture from snow, sleet or slush that might seep through your shoes. You can also find socks that are lined with fleece for added warmth.
What are the most comfortable socks?
Most women find ankle socks made of cotton to be some of the most comfortable socks available. Women's cotton socks provide soft comfort while the ankle height provides enough protection for your feet without causing irritation on your calf.
What are the most fashionable women's socks?
Finding fashionable women's hosiery isn't hard. Many socks come in a variety of colors and patterns to match any outfit. Some types of socks, however, are designed to be both comfortable and fashionable. Knee high socks, for example, are commonly used as an accessory to complete an outfit.
What are the best athletic socks?
Athletic socks should help prevent and wick moisture while exercising. As you exercise and sweat, that sweat can cause your socks and shoes to rub against your feet, causing blisters. Sam's Club sells some of the best athletic socks from Reebok and New Balance so you can keep moving without pain to your feet.
What are the best stockings?
Stockings are usually opaque and made of nylon. They commonly go up to the knee or all the way up to the thigh, with certain types of hosiery fitting up to the waist similar to a pair of pants. The best stockings are made from tough nylon that won't easily rip or pull if gently caught on the edge or a desk or door.
What to Consider When Buying Women's Socks
When looking to refill your sock drawer or get a new pair of specialty women's socks, you'll want to consider what types of shoes you'll be wearing. Although many shoes like sneakers, hiking boots or fashion boots need socks, some types do not. Most women choose to not wear socks with high heels and sandals are almost never worn with socks.
To get the best socks for your needs, think of what types of fabrics you like and what you need the material to accomplish. If you plan to hike, run or otherwise move around in your socks, you may want to consider wool or wool-blended socks that help draw moisture away from your foot. Additionally, you need to consider how thick you want your socks to be. Thin socks work great for high heels or shoes that fit a little tight. For hiking boots or winter shoes, you probably want a material that is a little thicker for comfort.
