Courtesy of the Amazon Vine program, I have received a pack of Galiva Men's Cotton Lightweight No Show Liner Socks - 3 Pairs for review.

Having used them for over a season now, I have grown to like them very much for their non-slip design and I am coming back to buy more so that I have enough number of pairs to last through my typical laundry cycle.

The non-slip design on these socks is essentially a grippy rubber/gel patch at the end of ankle. Its purpose is to increase friction between the heel and the sock so that the sock stays put. For example, when you are lifting your foot on the upstroke of a step when the back of the shoe pulls the sock downward, and the sock is much less likely to slip down the heel, which lets it further slips into the shoe. This design really does work very well; slipping happens so rarely with them that I don't recall any past incident.

The rest of the socks are just the good old cotton and it is very thin. This makes them great for wearing with boat shoes. Admittedly, the price is a bit high for what it is, but I am ok since this is not something I buy a lot of.
