Abstract
A non-slip hosiery to provide metatarsal support and foot stabilization when worn with high heeled or open toed shoes. The non-slip hosiery includes one or more gel cushioned pads at the ball and heel of the foot of the hosiery. The gel pads are configured such that the pads may be in at least partial contact with the wearer's skin and the insole of the shoe, providing frictional contact to limit slipping of the wearer's foot within the shoe.
