The day has come when you've found the perfect pair of sneakers that you didn't even know you needed. With their Beautifully shiny rubber soles, perfectly clean canvas surface, delicate laces, these new kicks were born for you, and you're already daydreaming of the places you can bust them out. When the long awaited moment comes and you officially break them in, one forgettable item stands in the way of you strutting your stuff: SOCKS. No-show socks for low sneakers have long been deemed the enemy because they fall down more times than an infant learning to walk. And, there's no way you're going to go sockless and run the risk of stinking up your new shoes. Despite their bad rep, a select few no-show socks actually do hold their ground and stay put throughout the day. Click through our slideshow to find the best no-show socks that'll actually stay in place.

I can personally attest that these socks can handle whatever your feet throw at them. Go for a 5 mile run? They're still hangin' in there. You can't see them at all underneath sneakers, and they don't dig into your feet like a lot of other no-show socks. Plus, they're super thin, so your feet can breathe easier in any shoe.

These light, seamless socks make the case again that sturdy no-show socks do exist. Multiple reviews said that these socks can get holes easily, BUT they don't slip off your heel and they remain invisible under any shoe, no matter how small. Pick your battles.

According to Racked writer Katie Heaney, these no-show socks are the real deal. Not to mention they come in floral and even flamingo patterns. No one will ever see them because they do their job so well hiding inside your shoes, but everyone should be armed with more than just bland white or black socks.

These socks need to be added your gym bag ASAP. It's quite a risk to wear no-show socks while working out to begin with, but these won't let you down. Literally—they'll stay up from your kickboxing class to the ellipitcal and anywhere else in between thanks to the small rubber grips at the bottom of the heel.
