As THE SOCK LADY , I get so many questions concerning the types of socks sold on Ebay. Here is a brief explaination of a few types.
Tubes - are straight like a tube. The have no heel knitted in. These can be worn by many size feet because your foot makes the heel wherever it rests.
Crew - these are "regular looking socks". They have a heel and a toe and the length is somewhere mid-calf.
Quarter - these are shorter socks. They usually have a 1-2" top. These are best for tennis shoes. they are also called golf socks, quarter crew , and sport socks.
Low cut - these are the lowest socks. They come to the top of your show. Sometimes they are called no-shows.
Over- the -calf - Is exactly that . The top of the socks comes over the calf or knee-hi.
