What Socks Should Men Wear With Trainers?

Which socks look best with men’s trainers?

Crew socks suit chunky trainers and relaxed outfits. Ankle or no-show socks give cropped trousers and low-cut trainers a cleaner line. Choose a sock that stays in place and covers any part of the foot where the collar rubs.

Crew socks with chunky trainers

Wear plain white or grey crew socks with the Onyx Trainers - Grey/White and relaxed denim. A small strip of sock can connect the white toe cap with a light tee. With the Onyx Trainers - Black/Black and black jeans, dark crew socks keep the outfit tonal.

Ankle or no-show socks with Court trainers

Try a low sock with the Court Suede Trainers - Grey and cropped trousers when you want less visible fabric at the ankle. Check that the sock grips the heel and covers the collar contact point. If it slides down or exposes a spot that rubs, switch to an ankle sock.

What socks work with joggers in colder weather?

A crew sock is practical under the Core Luxe Joggers - Blue Mist when the open hem lifts as you walk or sit. Use a neutral sock with the Apex Trainers - White, and recheck fit if a thicker sock makes the shoe feel tight at the toes.
