Collection: Women-Quarter

Quarter socks (also called quarter-length socks) are a style of short socks that extend 2–4 inches above the ankle bone. They are longer than ankle socks but shorter than crew socks.

  • Name origin: They cover roughly one-quarter (25%) of the lower leg (compared to knee-high socks), or reach about a quarter of the way from the ankle to the knee.
  • Length: ~6 inches from the heel, fully covering the ankle.
  • Use: Popular for casual wear, sneakers, running, cycling, and mild-weather hiking — they protect against shoe friction without excess warmth.
