as per title please, im sick to death of my socks slipping down in my wellies and buckler dealer boots, to be fair there probably crap socks that iv had as presents,
iv just opened a 3 pack of JCB socks so i will see how they do, i did have some decent longish wellie socks that have now all worn out on the heal but cant remember what make they were,

many thanks.

Canterbury rugby socks.. i wear them every day. comfy. warm. tight. and id put a hefty gaurentee that they wont ever slip!

the JCB ones are good to start. but after a couple washes i found the top elastic fades then they start slipping too.

Darn tough socks - they’re expensive but excellent quality and come with a lifetime guarantee . When they wear out just send them back and they’ll send you a new pair .
Buy once , cry once !!!

These are actually excellent socks and the guarantee is true I've swapped out 2 pairs which thinned after extended use

But if you wear high boots they will always pull your socks down unless you cinch them tighter than is comfortable for a day

Mid height boots with gaiters would eliminate the sagging socks issue and still keep you dry and tick free

Thin Liner socks and thick Woolies are the best option for long cold days I've found (contrary to years of advice to never double sock or you will get blisters)
 
I bought a pair of knee length merino wool socks off the Mauser site. I’m well impressed with the comfort and warmth provided by them and they don’t slip down around my ankles.
 
I have been using the knee length merino ski socks from Decathalon the best for staying put that I have found.
A reasonable price too.
 
Not that i wear wellies very often nowadays.
And wont help ur socks slipping down.
But if ur feet ever get cold later on iin the day.

But i found those sock bootee things were excellent if u walk a lot in them.
Seem to absorb the sweat and ur socks stay dry and feet warm
