No Show Socks for Dress Shoes

Dress shoes close over the instep with laces or a strap, so there is room for a no show sock that covers more of the foot and gives the heel more to hold. Our Mid-Cut suits most oxfords, derbies and brogues, and the High-Cut suits shoes that sit higher on the instep. Both are cut and sewn from a cotton and modal fabric, so the heel already sits where it should.

Oxfords, derbies, brogues and monk straps worn with cropped or no-break trousers. Start with the Mid-Cut, and go to the High-Cut if the shoe sits higher on the instep. XXL fits up to a men's 15, see no show socks for big feet.

Women's oxfords and derbies take the Mid-Cut. For pumps and pointed flats worn to work, the Low-Cut from our heels page sits lower.

With cropped or tailored trousers that show the ankle, yes. With full-length trousers in a formal setting, a dress sock close to your trouser color is still the better choice, since your shin shows when you sit. More in when to wear no show socks and no slip socks for loafers and dress shoes.

Mid-Cut and High-Cut run S to XXL, and the Low-Cut runs S to XL. See the size chart. If they slip off your heel, tell us within 30 days of delivery and we will refund or exchange them for free.
