Side by Side Comparison of: OSABASA vs Lauren by Ralph Lauren

These are great socks to wear with Vans or boat shoes. They fit as expected and are very comfortable. The little rubber sticky stuff on the heel keeps the sock from sliding. They are thinner which I prefer.. but not so thin as you feel like your big toe is gonna bust through and ruin your day. I usually wash everything on Cold and dry on med or med/low heat and they are holding up nicely at 10+ washes now.These are not for wear with ballet flats as they come up too high past the toes and will show from the top.. and I wouldn't suggest them for athletic shoes as they will be too low and wont cover the top of your foot completely where the shoe laces are. But they are PERFECT for Vans and Sperrys or other shoes of that style. I will definitely be purchasing more in the future after my dryer eats one side of each pair. Because that's what happens. I am sure of it.

WOW are these ever so comfotable! I am going back for more in another color. They don't slip off my feet with sneakers, and wearing them barefoot around the house is a joy. They are soft and fit perfectly. They are a little higher in the instep of my feet so they will show in some more open on top shoes so take that into consideration. For everyday wear...they are perfect!

Socks are not too tight, but very fitted. I wear at 7.5 to 8 and bought the 5-8 shoe sizing, and it fits perfectly. Bought them to wear with Converse and love them. Like others, I was scared it would be another ill fitting pair of no-show socks that don't do the job, but I was wrong! The heel hasn't slipped at all today!

The wife wears size 8 (women's) shoes and the size ordered was perfect and provided the comfort while not showing with low, slip-on shoes. The craftsmanship looks good as well so I expect these to last a while. Best price on the 5 pack for the quality.

Over the years I've tried a lot of different low profile style socks, but every time I've been disappointed. The main problem is that they always slide off into your shoe. In pure frustration at my stinky feet I decided to give another brand a try.Firstly and one of the major factors besides staying on my feet, they are mostly cotton. I would have expected that to be more common, but the ones I've tried in the past had little or no cotton in them. I love wearing these so much, I leave them on when I take my shoes off, and wear them around the house. They have never so much as needed me to readjust during the day. They just stay where they are. They aren't as low profile as some, but honestly I don't care, as I can wear shoes now that used to be impossible without socks.As a non sock wearer for many years.. I'm a convert! I wear a size 7 shoe, and got these in the 5-8 size, and they fit well. I have them in black and beige, and plan on buying more in other colors.

Awesome! I got these to go with my Sperry Top-Siders and I love them. They stayed on all day, and I didn't have to pull them up at the heel, as I usually do. It should be noted, though, they aren't completely no-show with the "slip on" boat shoes (the kind that show more of the foot, like the black ones in my picture), but are no-show with the "2-eye" boat shoes (the kind that come up higher on the foot, like the gray ones in my picture).

Just got these in the mail. I wear a size 7.5 so struggled between the small and medium size. After reading the reviews I went with medium and am very happy I did. They are definitely small and I could probably even do well with the large size if they shrink as much as people say. I will have to revisit my review after wearing and washing them a few times. Great socks but definitely size up!

These do come up higher on the foot than I wanted. I wanted more of an invisible sock for some MaryJanes - I ended up just cutting the front off to make the toe part more shallow. They still hold up pretty well and don't usually fall off.I'm pretty sure when they fall off it is because I cut them and changed the structure of the sock.Better for Tennis Shoes or high tongued loafers?

My husband got some similar socks at a Vans store and I liked the way they looked on him and how they stayed hidden in a low cut shoe. I thought I would try these since the price was much lower. I am satisfied with them and so far they are holding up pretty good. I do wish they were a tad bit thicker as I am afraid they may not last as long. Overall I a satisfied for the cost. May order more in black!

I really like this product. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because it didn't fit my feet as it should (in my opinion). I realize they aren't supposed to be bulky, but they were small and it could be that I have just too wide a foot for this kind of sock, but I was hoping. The product arrived on time and seems to be as described except for being small on me. I had to really stretch them to get them on. I wore them in a pair of bobs that I own and they were very soft just felt a little small on me. Had to wear them all day before they had some give.

Here's what you need to know about sizing. Ignore the shoe size recommendations in the item description. This is a Korean product and appears to be based on Asian sizing and poorly translated to US sizes. I wear a 7.5 shoe and ordered a small and the socks are way too small. A small will fit children. They fit my friend's 4 and 6 year olds perfectly. I'd guess that, based on how stretchy they are, the small will fit women with really small (size 5-6) feet. If you wear a 7-9, I'd get the medium. I just re-ordered and paid extra for delivery tomorrow so I can pack them for a trip. I Hope this helps someone else get it right the first time. The socks are nice quality.

These socks work well with my Skechers Go Walks I bought them for. I will say the large size just barely fit my size 8.5 foot and there is very little give/stretch in them so I can't see them fitting larger feet! Overall I like them though I haven't washed them yet so can't speak to longevity.

These socks are comfortable and soft, though a bit snug. I got the medium and normally wear a size 9 shoe. My complaint with these is that each pair ended up with holes in the bottom after one, sometimes two wears. I've personally never had socks do that. I do like the no slip grip on the heel, which was quite effective in keep my feet comfortable in the boat shoes I got these for.

I would not call these no-show. It depends on what shoes you're wearing, but most certainly not no-show with ballet flats. I've attached photos here.Not exactly no-show.Also, I want to add because I've seen many reviewers comments on this, I would say that these are true to size. I am between a 7 and a 7 1/2 women's, and the smalls fit me just fine.

I had originally bought these to wear with my TOMS, but they do come up a bit higher on the sides than I'd like - showing a bit around the edges and in the front. These are great, however, for sneakers. They're completely no-show with any regular pair of sneakers, they don't slip off of your heel and bunch up at your toes like most socks do, and they're quite comfortable.** If you want to wear these with flats like TOMS, keep in mind that they WILL show, so you might be better off finding different socks elsewhere. I did find the perfect socks for them, but at a small shop in my neighborhood. Happy shopping!

I wasn't certain how to grade this "sock". The fabric is what I wanted, more like a sock than a nylon. I had a pair of heels that were a little too big and wanted a thicker no-show sock to fill out the shoe. However, these are pretty high cut in the toe, more so than the nylon no-show socks you can buy so it didn't work in the shoes. So whether or not you like them or not will depend on what you want to use them for. They were good quality.

They were a bit tight and my toes are tender by the end of the day. I got the recommended size but would go up a size if I ever order again,

When I first tried them on, I thought they would stretch a little while wearing them and be alright, but they didn't. So I would have to say that they are a little too short and tight. I wear a size 9 womens shoe.

I purchased these because wearing a larger shoe size (9 1/2-10) and having high arches makes finding no show socks nearly impossible. When I first got them, I basically called them life changing. They fit, didn't slip, and didn't show. Fast forward a couple of months and they're just like every other kind of sock. They don't hold up to washing at all, shrink even on the lowest dryer settings for just a few minutes, and the elastic around the top is shredded. These are really good for a couple of months, but to replace them that often would just get outrageous.

To be fair, I have no luck with no show socks. I have yet to find a pair that do not slip off my heel and wad up under my foot. At first, I thought I found the Holy Grail of socks- after positioning them just so, they didn't peek out from my Tom's and they stayed put all day... I was so excited to conquer one of my first world problems! Then I washed and wore them a second time- I had to take off my shoe several times and get the socks back on my heels. By the third wash and wear, they would ball up under my foot within an hour. I ended up taking them off and tossing them in the trash half way through my day. Needless to say, my Tom's will continue to funk as my search for no show socks continues.

Nice socks - they stayed in place for a long time - but the sizing is WAY OFF. I wear a size 10.5 shoe and bought the largest size (shoe size 10-13), but they were still too small. After just one wearing there was a small hole on the top of the sock, probably from being stretched too much. If they offered them in a size that actually fit me, I would buy them again.

I didn't realize these came in different "sizes" ....apparently I ordered a size "small" and they are tiny, like for a toddler. I'm not sure how this happened but I don't remember selecting a size when I ordered. Aside from size, these seemed to be decent quality but I've seen softer material socks in the stores similar to this style. I'll buy in person next time rather than roll the dice with online ordering. Too bad these didn't work for me. Returned them.

Not even half the day has passed there are already holes where my big toes are. I thought it was just the first pair, so I tried another and the same thing happened. Poorly made sadly, I wanted to like it because it had the no-slip rubber to hold it in place. That one worked well, but the holes not so much :(

My husband ordered these for me as an add-on to his order. I wear a US 8.5 and they were out of stock of the 8-11 sizes. So I said Let me go ahead and get the next size up (10-13) because I have wide feet and most slipper socks restrict my toes and my big toenail eventually tears through the sock. I thought this time for sure I would not have any more cramped toes from tight socks. I knew i was wrong as soon as I took out the socks from the packaging. The socks were about 3-4 inches in size and have to be stretched on to your foot! AND THIS WAS A COUPLE SIZE LARGER THAN MY ACTUAL SIZE!! I have worn them to work a few times and yup squeezing my toes together because of the stretched material and my toenail is starting to thin the material from the pressure. Definitely would not recommend this to people who have wide feet or very curved toenails as the tightness will push on the nails causing that ingrown nail pain.

I thought these would come up further on my feet like shown in the picture, so that I can wear leather Vans without the shoe sticking to the top of my feet, but they come up just enough for Sperry Angelfish. They also shrink down to about the size of an toddler's sock in the wash (see photo, with Smartwool medium for scale) and pinch my toes together after extended wear. I'm a size 8 and you can see my toenail polish through the sock due to how stretched they are.

The product I got is NOT OSABASA No-Show Socks!!! I did not get quantity I bought also.Socks were delivered from China, Packing with no tags just plastic bag!!!!!I have

This is a second review, the one below was my first order, no problem. This order came from China, took forever and are the size of baby socks, literally. Now, to return them, I have to pay postage! I think not, so lesson learned. No STARS would be more accurate.I didn't know what to expect with these, purchased to wear with Sketcher boat shoe style. They don't show :-) They're comfortable and don't move up on the heel :-) They're a bit short when you first put them on, but after a while they're fine. I'd buy more.I have Raynaud's so I try to protect from getting cold, these are just enough to do just that.

Third time purchasing these and they are completely different, cheaper made. First off the material is completely see through, to the point that you will be lucky to get a few wearings out of them. Second they are so small that my toes were in extreme pain after wearing them. The material is not very rough. I really loved the first two orders of these so much so that I purchased a 5 pack this time and am regretting my purchase. I will not wear them again and wasted my money. Do not buy these, you will too regret it. Oh and the photo is completely misleading. Material is paper thin......... Also when I clicked on my order to leave a review, it would not allow me to review this item from my order. I had to navigate to the items page and go to bottom where reviews were to leave a review. NEVER is all the items I have purchased from Amazon had this happen, Almost like they are trying to deter people from leaving reviews......

I ordered a 5 pack of beige socks and it had BUGS in it. Disgusting. I threw them right out.

Literally the thinnest socks of all time! They fit perfectly and have an the awesome heel gel so they don't slip but they quality of the fabric is entirely too thin. I got holes in the toes on the first wear!
