Q: Can these be worn by a boy or girl, even though they specify toddler boy socks?

Brand expert
A: No. Everybody knows that boys wear blue / black and girls wear pink / purple. If you try to put these socks on a girl, an invisible force field in nature will shield the poor dainty angels sensitive skin, preventing you from doing so.

Q: Do the socks themselves have the size on them somewhere?
submitted by Kari H - 9 months ago
A: Hello Kari! Thank you for your question.
The Hanes Toddler Boys' Heel Shield Athletic Socks typically do not have the size printed directly on the socks. They are usually marked by color-coded accents or packaging labels to indicate size, but not on the sock fabric itself. Best Regards!
These socks are praised for their softness, stretchiness, and breathable material. They feature non-slip grips and size markings, making them practical for active toddlers. However, some guests have noted issues with sizing, durability, and tightness around the ankles. Despite these concerns, many guests appreciate the comfort and functionality of these socks for their children.

I love the non slip backing on these socks. Now my toddler can run around without skipping around on our wood floors.

Too small, order size up
My kid is just starting to go from size 9T to 10T, so I ordered him the 4-5 like the size chart says. The socks fit, but barely, and the ones that have gone through the wash have shrunk. Otherwise they feel like decent socks and my kid does like them.

These seem to be holding up well from toddler wear and tear. The silicone sizing on the top of the sock is genius. I will never again buy toddler socks without it.

Grippers Don't Work Well
I chose these socks because of the grippers, but they don't work. My toddler (nearly two) has repeatedly slipped and fallen, which never happened with his old (other brand) socks. I'll be discarding them. They otherwise fit well and seem comfortable, so might be suitable if only used with shoes.

Great toddler socks!
Our new favorite toddler socks! Major non-slip grippy bottoms. They’re thick but. It too thick, and I love the heel pad. They’ve washed really well too.

Good boy socks
Love that these have grips in size 4/5T. Most socks don't have them in larger toddler sizes, but my wild boy is always running around and needs them to help prevent slips and falls.

Thin flimsy socks
Super thin flimsy socks. Returned and got the organic cotton ones which are much better cushioned.

Disappointed
Very thin. The ankle area was tighter than the rest of the sock. Yes the style looks a little higher then ankle socks usually are. Which I did not like. They are very soft and a cool pretty cooler.

Major Shrinkage
They were really great and comfortable at first. But after one wash and dry on delicate/low heat, they shrank a ton and now don’t fit at all!

Perfect sock fit
Quality is amazing while still keeping sock thin and breathable. Long and roomy for wider feet
