footsock
Invisible ankle covering
A footsock is a very short sock that covers only the foot, with little or no material rising above the shoe line.
Worn primarily with low-cut shoes or loafers when you want the sockless look without going barefoot: I wear footsocks with my boat shoes.
Also called no-show socks or liner socks.
