Ironically, that's the same reason I'm excited to try knitting socks just in the opposite length direction. There's a sweet spot for me where the sock actually sits on my ankle, all those thin women's socks without a proper cuff that are meant to sit close to the edge of the sneaker are torture, they always slip down my heel, and I find anything that goes more than an inch or two above the top of my shoe annoying and/or uncomfortable. I also had a heck of a time finding good wool winter socks before we first moved, I had to settle for hiking socks that have all that grippy athletic shaping in them and urgh. Not comfortable at all (to me, anyway.)
Socks might be the first patterns I seriously tweak, I have Opinions, haha.
