Baby Sock

Question: Has anyone found baby socks that actually stay on?

Preferably cheap.

No. I don 't know why they even make them, or why we even bother to buy them either.

Target has baby socks that are velcro and ones that snap to the childs pants

I think it 's Gerber brand (if they ever make socks?)..it 's in a clear package of about 8 pairs or something. You can get them at Target and Walmart, they arent expensive either. I use to hate those fluffy baby socks they never stayed on!

I usually just go with slippers or booties that have little elastics in them that make them a bit tighter around the ankle. I honestly don 't believe it 's possible to keep socks on an infant.

Faded Glory from Wal-mart. Simple white bobby socks. I use those for my daughter. They stay on well. That is when she doesn 't take them off herself.. lol

My daughter 's feet are so chubby that nothing stays on. The only socks that do are these from Kohls: kohls.com/ kohlsStore/ kids/ baby/ sockstightsshoes/ socks/ PRD~106409/ Carters+ 6pk+ Bubble+ Socks+ + Pink.jsp They also have boys too, but this type stays snug around her ankles and they stay on perfectly!

Not unless they are baby TIGHTS! : ) baby feet just aren 't shaped for socks for a while...

Tights or sleepers - i never wasted my time and money on socks and shoes until she actually needed them for walking.

Really? I 've never had any problems with any socks except from The Children 's Place (Canada) and Old Navy. I find them really loose and too long. Any other pairs I 've had were never problematic. I usually get them cheap at Joe Fresh (Canada) or Wal Mart.

I know what you mean. I 've brough tons of socks for my 16 month old & they never stay on. Half of them are god knows where cause there always falling off. What I 'm doing now is just buying the sleepers with the built in feet so that there is no need for socks.

I never found socks that would stay on my son, so he just didn 't wear any until he started walking well and needed shoes. By that point he didn 't mess with them anymore. If you 're worried about keeping their feet warm in the upcoming cold weather, either put tights on for a girl (you could even put the tights over top of socks), or what I did if it was too cold was put a footed sleeper on, pants and a shirt over top, that way their feet stay warm. Although it did make it that much more difficult during diaper changes, it kept him warm.

JC Penny 's get the long ones, my son hates socks and kicks the off all the time...the long white ones have defeated him :) they stay on like a charm!

I got a pack of 8 white socks at walmart that always stay on. I don 't know the brand but they are probably the same ones others above me mentioned from walmart. Childrens Place socks are the worst ones I 've bought.

Carters socks are the only ones that fit and stayed on both my boys. They frequently have amazing sales too. = 0)

Trumpettes stay on like no other sock. They aren 't cheap new, but I constantly see them at second-hand stores for $.50 a pair. diapers.com/ product/ searchresults.aspx?freetext= trumpettes &queryfrom= search

Trumpette doesn 't stay on in my experience. Hannah Andersen stays on great but they are expensive. I have a 6 pack of NB gerber ones that were great (little fold over ones) but they don 't come in larger sizes that I 've seen.
