Side by Side Comparison of: Steve Madden vs Sheec

I love these. I've tried some other brands but the material was too cheap.I always wear these with my flats.

These tiny socks are great. They work perfectly for my flats. They are super stretchy. The same socks fit both me (women's 8) and my daughter (children's 3).

The only bad thing about them, I'm unable to wear them with my shoes, because you can see them :-(...I only wear them around the house. I ONLY WEAR HEELS---the socks will only work for T-shoes, and boots. If you don't mind the socks showing with heels or flats, this will work for you. Looks just like the picture, very tuff cotton. Should last awhile.

Truly no show and feels very nice on foot.

Made wearing brand new shoes so much more comfortable. Kept the shoes from sliding on my feet and there was no need for any foot powder since these wicked up the ordinary moisture associated with wearing heels under a long dress. Worked very well for me.

I use these as a substitute for being barefoot around the house. I get cracked heels when I go barefoot so this is my solution. Works great for what I'm using it for. But they won't stay put with shoes. Also got some for my mom, she likes them too for the same purpose. They are very soft.

Updating my review 3/7/17: everything I wrote below is still true. These are great liners that really don't show at all. I just wanted to give a warning to anyone who is reordering these...ORDER A SIZE SMALLER THAN YOU HAD BEFORE. I think the brand must have switched suppliers because the medium used to fit me perfectly, but the new supply in medium is too big & keeps slipping off my feet in the back. So I went in & ordered the small & they fit perfectly now. (I wear a size 7 1/2 or 8)Previous review:I've tried every liner that claims to be low cut/no show. Before SHEEC the only one I ever found that was even close to no show was Hue, but I still had to cut those to get them low enough. These truly don't show! And they're really thin so they don't mess with the fit of my shoes. I wear a 7 1/2 or sometimes an 8 & the medium size is perfect for me. I don't have any trouble with holes as some reviewers reported (I suspect the only reason you would is if you had the wrong size and they were too tight). These are great and I highly recommend

Oh my god, where have these been all my shoe-wearing life?!I've tried three brands of these things and am never letting another one touch my feet again.Why?1) These actually don't show over your toes. Or your heels. Or the sides of your foot. They're actually - unlike 90% of no-show socks - truly invisible2) The fabric. Sheer socks delicate enough for heels but strong enough for the laundry? Swoon.3) The anti-skid pads on the ball of the foot and the heel. If you don't understand the difference between having and not having anti-slips, you will once you BUY THESE SOCKS!

I was amazed with these no show socks! I have been searching for a pair that would not fall down in my flats, and FINALLY...I have!!! I was a bit leary of the price, I thought and still think $28 for four pairs is a bit too expensive for such a product. So I bought 1 pair to try out and see if they actually did what they claimed. I have to admit, I am tempted to buy more because they are fantastic, I wore them all day walking around the hospital I work in and they didn't budge!I will say, they were no show, in the front, but did show just the tiniest bit in the back behind my heel, but that really didn't bother me. I definitely think you need to own at least one pair if you don't need to wear them daily and can wash and dry them between wearings. If you need more, then it's up to you if it's worth the money. I don't need to wear them daily, so for now I may just stick with the one pair and keep washing them as I think the price is still a bit high, but if I needed to wear them more frequently this is the brand I'd get and I would suck it up and buy more because it's worth it not to have the aggravation of falling down socks!! Hope this helps you!!

Love these! They stay on my feet and don't show with my ballet flats. I've tried numerous other brands and they always showed. And I hate wearing shoes without some sort of foot coverage. I originally ordered the cotton version and while they were very thin, they still felt just a tad bulky with my shoes. (Just a tad so if you are a cotton fan go for those!) I ordered the nylon version and they are perfect. Very thin, stay in place and don't show even on my lowest cut ballet flats! Now I can go have the sockless/nylonless look without my feet feeling yucky and sweaty all day!

I wear a size 7.5, trending slightly larger to almost an 8. I bought size M. I was *incredibly* skeptical, as (perhaps like you) I have bought dozens, probably hundreds of pairs of these kinds of socks, each one more disappointing than the next. So to spend $30 for four pair seemed like the ultimate folly. In fact, I bought both the cotton ones AND the sheer ones, doubling down on my folly. Which is why I'm writing this review for you today. Because today I tried the sheer ones, and you know what? They are AWESOME. Thin, transparent but sturdy mesh means that they don't make your tightest shoes feel any tighter, and they let your feet slide around just a bit inside of your shoe with no sticking (so no blisters). They are super sheer, so the seams are thinner, more like pantyhose and less like socks. The seams are also placed such that they are not at any part of your foot that would rub AND the sock stayed firmly put on my foot as I walked four blocks to work. The heel didn't slip off, the edge didn't start to show on the sides of my foot. But most importantly, the toe box is just a *tiny* little thing. I knew as soon as I put them on that Sheec had gotten this one most important thing right, finally. It covers only down to about where your toenails end, so they really are invisible in almost ANY shoe. I'm impressed, and I'm a customer now. I love them. I don't care that much for the non-slip bumps on the bottom of the feet, but honestly, that's my only complaint, and it's an easy one to overlook. Try these. I like the sheer ones better than the cotton ones for tighter shoes, but I bet I'll love the cotton ones more in the winter, or for looser shoes. Really well done, Sheec!

Ok, silly low-cut sock comparison review. Hopefully this is helpful for people trying to find actual low-cut socks, because finding a good pair was harder than it should've been. I've been trying to find a good pair to wear with my flats, to keep them in good shape for longer and stop them from getting stinky.Here are the styles I tried and their results:- SHEEC - SoleHugger SECRET Cotton: http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HRAXMSI/ : best- Hue Ultra Low Cut Liner Sock: http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CYAXZ0G/ : 2nd best- Hue Cotton Liner: http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B006L3V6QC/ : 3rd best. soft cotton but not at all low-cut- Jays No Show Socks: http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FPU73EQ/ : worst. felt cheap, not low cut at all.Love the Sheec socks by far the most. At $7 a pair, they're approaching "stupid expensive" range for socks, but I figure it's worth it given that they'll protect my shoes. They fit small and tight, aren't remotely near showing on even the lowest cut shoes, don't stretch out, and have little bumps under the pad of your foot to keep it from slipping around. I prefer the cotton ones (as opposed to the "active" ones) as the cotton ones are a bit softer.Hope this helps!

works well on an average foot but not so well on a size 11

the fit of these are no different than others I have purchased. I like having the footies but they don't fit low cut enough on the foot. but thanks for asking.

These are comfortable and do great with loafers especially. It's true that they do peek out along the edges of some flats, but for the price these are fantastic and it's hardly noticeable. These are best for loafer-type shoes and booties (the type that normal ankle socks would definitely show). These do not have the silicone/rubber area on the heel which does make them more prone to slip off, but I find that making sure the shoe is on snug takes care of that problem.

For footie socks, these are pretty good. Definitely the best pair that I have. They do slip off of my heels every now and then, but I feel like other brands slip even more. You just really have to pull them over your toes and you should be fine. I wear them with ankle boots a lot and haven't had any problems!

Very comfy no slip off during the day!

I honestly did not expect these to work as I have bought so many socks in the past that were not supposed to show and stay up. To my surprise, they don't show and they have stayed up fairly well. I need to wash them and see how they hold up but so far so good. I have very small feet (size 5.5 US) so most of the socks out there are too big. These fit well.

I actually didn't even open these, since the VERO MONTE socks were a better value for the same amount of pairs. I guess if you are looking for sheer socks over just no-show, these might be worth the extra cost.

I have been searching for something like this for-EVER. They're perfect for my pumps. The nylon is nice quality but best of all, I don't have to worry about tucking in the edges of my old lacy toe covers!! I could never find anything that was cut deep enough in front for on the top of my foot/toe area. The ONLY reason I can't give 5 stars is bc the length is perfect however the width is not. I wish more footwear manufacturers would make their sizes available in wide widths. There's plus sized clothing available everywhere, so why leave feet out? It's honestly really difficult to find shoe sizes in a wide width. Length wise I'm definitely an 8.5 but usually have to end up getting my shoes in size 9 bc the 8.5 is a bit too snug, digs in...sometimes I even have to add heel cushions so there's no gap in the back by my heels. Ordering these a size up would be way too much material for length. These are best for people with normal medium width sized "non retail" feet (constantly being on my feet for 20 years has wreaked major long term foot havoc- ugh). Highly recommend. Also highly recommend that Sheec considers expanding (literally lol) & offering wide widths to their customers (:

I wear a size 10 shoe and these were a wee bit small. But after a quick rinsing and a little stretch they were great. I love these for spring and summer. It keeps my feet from sweating and getting dirty, ultimately ruining the insole of my shoes. Highly recommended. I've tried other brands and these are by far my favorite!!Update: I just purchased my second set of 4!!! Highly recommended......AGAIN!!!! This set fet perfectly. I purchased a size large for 9-11 shoe size. They stay in place and I hardly notice I have them on.

I have problems with my toes so was looking for socks that wouldn't squish my toes. These are really nice socks and they feel good on, but a little more room in the toe section would work better for me, even with the large size. They do have a non-slip feature on the ball of the foot which works great, but the heel then slips. Adding more non-slip on the heel would fix that. I like the fabric they are made of and it dries quickly after washing.

First time buying these liners and like them much better than bare feet. Wish I had gotten them sooner. I like that they will keep future shoes clean inside. The rubbery bits on the sole and heel seem to keep it in place for the most part. They are MOSTLY unseen inside my Nine West flats but tend sometimes to creep up over the sides of my feet and peek out. I wouldn't mind so much if the color matched my skin tone, but only this lighter ivory cream color was available. :-(. Also this fabric is thicker than hosiery and I like that. Material seems it will last though I wouldn't expect it to last over a year like other reviewers.

Stretches out and do not fit quite right.

I only gave three stars because this item does not always stay on my feet. About 50% of the time, the little sock ends up sliding off. I end up taking off my shoes to readjust. And that does get annoying after a while, especially when there are other people around and I have to do it in a public place. OK but not as wonderful as I expected.

These show in most of my shoes.

These are made from sturdy and comfortable material and I like the way that they're cut however, they don't have the silicone strip that other footies have, and honestly, the silicone strip is what makes these things worthwhile. I walk a lot and without that strip, they slip off my heel and get stuck under my foot and I frequently have to put my fingers in my shoes to fix them (yuck). If these had the silicone strip, they'd be excellent.

I have very narrow size 7 feet. The liners were high quality but too large for my feet resulting in showing in many of my ballet flats.

Loved these until I washed them. Out of the box they were fantastic. They didn't slip and provided coverage that stayed hidden inside the shoes. After they were washed they were stretchy and kept slipping off my feet inside the shoes.

While these no-show socks work (hence the 3 stars), I'm very disappointed because I made a trip to T J Maxx and found peds that were the same type with silicone non-slip backs for $5.99 - and there were THREE PAIRS in the pack. I paid $7.99 for one pair! Not worth the cost to send them back, either. Oh well, live and learn!

This is ok. I have big feet (11) so it didn't surprise me that it slipped off my heel. Wouldn't even stay put while I walked from the parking lot. But then I remembered I had wardrobe tape in my office. Bingo! Put a piece of tape on my heel, then positioned the sock where I wanted it. Worked like a charm and stayed put until evening.Still, wish it would stay put on it's own.

Agree with other reviewers..These are to date the best liners I have purchased in terms of being truly NO Show, in low cut dress shoes and flats.. The product fits well . I wear an 8 1/2 shoe and ordered a M. They are sheer, as the name suggests, but not as sheer as stockings. seem like they will be relatively durable, though I would only hand rinse or wash in a lingerie bag in the machine-. I really like the styling and low cut sides. They do not show even in very low cut ballet flats . They seem to stay on well. I cannot feel the no-skid patches on the sole at all, when wearing. My only issue is that they are pretty expensive for one single pair of liners, as I tend to want to have multiple pairs to keep in shoes at the office, car and at home.. I would definitely want to own multiple pairs, but at $8 each , I will try to take really good care of 2 pairs and not purchase 5, as I would like to do!!!

don't wear with tight shoes... the no-slip strip on the heel works nicely to keep the sock on, but it gave me a blister when worn with the wrong pair of shoes. These are really great otherwise. They stay on so much better than other no-shows! The feeling of the fabric is almost nothing like nylons. It feels more like a very fine/smooth mesh.***Update*** I REALLY love these, so I ordered a 4-pack, same size. The 4-pack I received was way too big to wear. Unfortunately I had to return them. I ordered the large and I wear women's size 8.5 US.

I bought these hoping to find a no-show sock that actually didn't show. As a reference, my foot is small and narrow. I often have to put shoe pads in size 5 shoes to make them stay on my foot.I ordered a pair of these in a size Small, and they practically fell off my foot. I was surprised because I've ordered other brands of no-show socks, and fit was never a problem. For example, I ordered a set of the nude Dr. Anison socks, and the fit was fine. Still showed a little, but at least they stayed on my foot.Since I can't rate these based on having worn them, I'm giving a "neutral" review which is based solely on the large fit.

They're from China and are way too small

Fit lower on top front of foot than pic indicates

Disappointed that these are not a true no show footie. I wear a size 7 to 71/2 shoe. If you are wearing with a high heel like pictured in the ad or a ballet flat, they will show. Quality is nice just not the fit.

They fit ok, but they slipped off my feet once I put on the shoes. They were thicker and heavier than I expected. They really didn't suit my needs.

These are bigger than I had hoped. A lot of fabric noticeably sticks out from every pair of shoes I've tried them with. I bought them to specifically wear with flats and it looks terrible.

They still cover too much of the foot and show all along the outside edges of my flats-I am sure some will love this but I am looking for a very small liner that does not show at all.

They fit the size of my foot, but they won't stay up when I walk. Very disappointing.

This product is made from the cheapest material ever. The "socks" are made from a very thin and plastic-y nylon. I am a size 10 and got the large (supposed to be for sizes 9-11) and it's also too big. I think an 11 would fit this best. My feet started sweating terribly after wearing this for 45 minutes - it is like wearing plastic - all other low cut socks absorb sweat somewhat, and provide a buffer between sock and shoe. You would be better off just wearing the shoe without a sock. Also there are grips on both the inside (heel) and the outisde (ball of foot) of the sock. The ball of feet grips don't make any sense, you can feel them under your feet and they leave indentations into the ball of your foot. I have bought many brands of these low cut socks and am shocked at the poor quality of the material. The stitching looks fine, however, and there are no holes.

I really did a lot of research to find the best sock to wear with flats and loafers. I was hoping these would be the ones. They are not. They somehow manage to be too small and too large at the same time. They barely fit around the toe, which would mean they would be slipping off constantly, but they are too big around the heel, which would mean they would be slipping off constantly. Was not what I was expecting or hoping for.

I spent way too much time trying to find the perfect liner. I decided I did not want a cotton one because they are too thick. So, I gambled on these. The first time I wore them, the appeared a little small. But they did the job though part of my foot was not covered (the outside of my big toe and the pinkie.) I tried them the next day without washing them --- and they were duds. I guess they stretched out because they would not stay on, and kept on sliding off my heel. So, the message is -- wash before you re-use. I will do that and report back.Ok. I have tried every possible combo. They dont stay on, they dont cover my toe bones (not bunyons but where some folks get them) and I hate those nubbins on the sole that are supposed to be so cool. The solehuggers dont work. I will say that I tried some cotton ones from another brand -- different problems but still annoying. They show over the sides, slip, I sweat, make shoes to tight. I may just not be cut out for these.

I don't know how people can wear these - the non-slip bumps on the bottom are just so uncomfortable for me. I couldn't even stand on the floor with them on, not that they hurt, but they were just driving me crazy! Also, the fabric is awful. Like nylons which is not what I wanted. Personally as a person with sweaty feet I much prefer cotton ones. Guess I didn't read well enough before I bought. Returning these to try the Hue ultra-low ones.

The grip on the bottom makes them uncomfortable to wear for long periods of time. The grip is made up of these gel bubbles on the bottom of the sock that dig into the balls of your feet the longer you wear them.

waste of time, these do not stay put on your feet. they pop off

These showed in both pairs of shoes I tried them in, I gave up on them after that :(

I give this product no stars. I am 58 years old and work downtown, so I started buying ballet flats and bought these footies. The "No Show" part of this product title is completely untrue. Since I have to walk 4 blocks from where I park, the heels slipped off every time and had to be readjusted once I got to work and then 10 to 15 times each day. I recently gathered every footie with Steve Madden on the bottom and put them in the trash. I will never buy these again.

Roll into ball in toe of shoe. Laying them flat, there is no distinct toe and heel. Tried both ways. Don't stay on feet... roll off into toe of shoe.

IT slips and collects at the toes.

These do not have a silicone strip on the back to keep in place. They slipped down under my heel. I had the back curled under my arch all day. If I pulled back over the back of my foot, they were rolled back under my foot by 5 steps...

When I first bought these, I was really excited about them. I own several pairs of Sheec Sole Huggers and usually recommend them to everyone! I love my Tiek flats, but finding true no show socks was always a challenge. Sheec has fixed that! The issue is the new design doesn't stay up. It doesn't matter what shoe, the heel won't stay up even with the grips. I wish that I could get them to because these new ones are so thin and amazing and would be awesome for heels. I hope that they have worked to resolve this. I am hesitant to buy a new set to see if so. If you want to get no show socks, buy Sheec - just but the old type.

There are different versions of this product out there. My first pack of Sheecs were and remain fantastic. I reordered, assuming they would be the same, but was disappointed. The different is a critical one. These Sheecs, I'll call them Sheec Nylon 2.0, have a single rubbery strip inside each heel to keep the sock on your foot at the back so that it doesn't slide off when you walk around. This is junk, will not keep your socks in place, and results in these $7 a pop shoe liners being a waste of money. I do a relatively small amount of walking in heels and flats during the day and have to stop, take a shoe off, and pull my socks back on at least 8 times a day.The older version, Sheec Nylon 1.0, has a bunch of rubbery dots in the heel which cover much more area and very securely keep the sock in place. These are worth their weight in gold. They don't budge. But I don't know if Sheec stopped making it this way or what.

Returned for many reasons. Gell tabs on ball of sock were odd. Gel tabs on heel were also odd. Did not fit well at all. There was no sense that the sock "gripped" the foot. In fact, they slipped off easily.

These slipped off my feet all day long. Material is a thick nylon and slippery.

These have gel dots on the bottom, not so much a "patch" as a thick ball. They are unnecessary and uncomfortable. They are also way overpriced for the quality. There are several better brands.

I own several pairs of SHEEC cotton SoleHuggers and decided to try these out, hoping they'd be a little cooler. They were nice the first time I wore them, but they' developed a rough spot in the elastic on the seam of the heel. I had to throw them away, and these things are not cheap!
