Sometimes, the simplest products are the hardest to perfect. Like socks – especially no show socks – which have slipped, ripped, and rolled their way into my trash can after just one wear for far too long. No one has been able to crack the code on a no show sock that actually, well, works – until Comrad finally stepped up to the plate. The brand just dropped a better, more supportive no show sock – and it’s an absolute home run.
The worst part of wearing no-show socks is that without fail, at some point throughout the day, at least one will peel off your heel and slowly but surely roll under your arch into a disgusting, sweaty mess. Comrad tackled that issue head on with Anti-Slip Grips – nine strategically-placed silicone grips that prevent bunching or slipping. In a bold move, I test wore these babies for the very first time on a travel day. After a four hour flight, I was so pleased that I wore them on my return flight (after a wash – don’t worry) and another trip the following week. If these grips can handle security lines and terminal treks, I feel confident they can handle just about anything.
These socks aren’t just tolerable – they’re insanely pleasurable. Created with soft and breathable premium cotton, their anti-abrasion yarns and seamless stitching makes them thick enough for comfort but thin enough that they don’t bulkily fill your shoes. Plus, each pair boasts a 360° MicroBead Arch, a supportive band of compression that wraps around the foot and arch to keep you supported all day long.
Comrad knew you’d be wearing these socks a lot when designing them, which is why the brand invested in a padded heel and toe cushions to provide comfort while preventing holes and excess wear. The brand is firm in its belief that they’ll last – if your socks get holes in the first month of wear, it’ll send you a new pair for free!
These socks hide so well in my shoes that most of my friends are convinced I’m one of those questionable people who doesn’t wear socks with sneakers anymore. While most no show socks peek out at some point on your foot, Comrad’s version actually stays hidden no matter which pair of shoes you’re sporting. Lace up and get grooving – a no show sock that delivers on its promises has arrived.
