Has anyone found socks to stay on a 5 month old? Socks are either too small or too big! I have 2 pair of socks from my first son that are great...NO IDEA where they came from! And they are thin...would like something thicker. Found some booties on amazon but they were 22 bucks a piece! So...any of you have great finds out there? Please share your secrets! :) Thanks.
Thanks so much for all the suggestions! I have some shopping to do:-)
Old Navy ankle socks -- they were thicker and the ONLY ones that stayed on. Anything with a cuff or that came above the ankle just popped right off my son. Those Old Navy ankle ones were the best.
My favorite socks were the Carters brand. They have them at Target. and Kohls They fold over and have this colored stretchy band which sort of looks like a ruffle but it's not - they make them in boy colors :)
For my three boys I preferred old navy brand socks but people like to buy cute socks, the ones that don't stay on and I would use baby legs/leg warmers on them over the socks which also gave them an extra layer of warmth under their clothing in the winter and in the spring or fall I just didn't put pants on them and it showed off their cute cloth diapered bum! ;)
Baby Gap! They make some with tighter elastic on the top and they are thick. I don't know if all stores have them but they do online! http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=42782&vid=1&...
In the summer, I don't really mind if the socks fall off--but when it is cold and I want those tootsies covered, I put my babies (boys) in tights. Does the trick for us, or I have them wear footie one pieces (I think they are a Gerber brand) under their clothes.
Old Navy socks. They are thin but stay on and are comfy for chubbie ankles, too!
I LOVE Puma socks!! My boys me and my husband all wear them! The size for the boys runs a little big bu they never fall off!!
People always say Old Navy, but I never had any luck with them staying on. I did have luck with Carter's socks. I also second the suggestion from another poster saying to use the soft leather slippers over the socks, they really did help, too, plus they are so cute!
I used soft shoes, to keep the socks on! Especially when they were old enough to pull them off.
I think an easy solution is to just put those soft leather shoes on over the socks. Both Babies R Us and Target sell them and they are much less expensive than Robeez.
Sock on's. They kept socks on for my weird sized chubs. I found cheaper ones on ebay though.

We recently got a few pairs from baby Gap cheap and they stay on really well.
I love the Robeez socks with the "kick free gather" at the ankle. They're awesome and have grippies on the bottom for safety.
agreeing with the old navy socks - loved the cuff ones and the ankle ones!!!
