Has anyone here tried these? Do they really stay put on the foot--no rolling off the heel nonsense? Kind of pricey, but would be worth it if they really stayed put. TIA

I've never heard of them so I did a quick google search for reviews. They are not favorable.
I've been wearing Nike no show socks for years. LOVE THEM! On me, I have absolutely no problem with them staying put. Even after many multiple washings. Make sure you dry on low heat. They're available at Amazon, Nordstrom, and I'd imagine many other places.

They work for me but they wear out quick. I have tried Nike, Under Armor, generic, etc and always had trouble with them slipping down my heel.

I dream of one's that won't slip off of my narrow heels. I am also on the smaller end of the sock size range. I'm sure most of them fit fine on the upper end of the range.
They need to come in small medium large. Could a pea get right on that.

I actually just ordered more a few days ago. I was never much of a no show sock gal until recently. I tried a pair earlier this winter and loved them. I do prefer the cushioned style. No problems staying on my foot... more likely that the heel ends up getting pushed up and shows when I put my shoe on in a hurry. I tried grabbing some that looked similar at Target to save some money and they were horrible. I prefer something that has cotton, but not 100%, and is a little heavier than lots of the cheap ones I have found in stores locally. I have had his pair since around Christmas time and wear them at least once a week and they still look and feel like new, so I don't know how long they will last but haven't worn out yet. I am pretty sure they have a satisfaction guarantee too.

I haven’t worn the no-shows - I have no desire to wear that type of sock - but I love their ankle and quarter socks.

I had never heard of these except for Dr Laura mentioning them several times an hour on her show. They look cute!

I prefer Balega or SwiftWick socks. The Balegas have a little compression in them and are super comfy and I never have issues with them slipping. The SW socks are a tighter compression and I wear them mostly for running or for post race compression recovery. They don't slip either.
Both are kinda spendy but I have never liked any of the Nike, UA, Rebok types of socks. They just don't feel good on my foot.

Part of the reason Bombas are so expensive is because for each pair you purchase, a pair is donated to a homeless shelter.

I wear SmartWool no show socks. They come in sizes and have a silicone pad on the inside heel to keep them in place. They work! I order them from Duluth Trading Company when they have a 20% off sale.

I also started to Balega socks. I buy a medium. They do show a bit though. I was wearing Puma socks but after a few wearing my big toe souls pop through.
