Ankle Socks

Ankle socks sit just above the shoe collar, giving a little coverage and protection from rubbing without climbing up the leg. They're the easiest everyday length for sneakers, trainers and casual shoes.

Current styles include Hush & Drift, a women's pack of floral ankle socks in rose pink, lilac and beige; Petal & Lagoon, with a hand tie-dye print; and the colour-block Court Stories. Each is a 3-pair pack in a cotton-rich or organic cotton-rich blend with added stretch and a ribbed cuff, made in India.

Want even less sock on show? Try no-show socks. For a touch more coverage, see quarter-length socks, or compare every length in our sock size guide.
