If you pull the sock up so the toes are in the bottom of the sock, the heel pocket is about an inch up the back of your achilles tendon. If I buy ladies socks, they are so tight they actually hurt the end of my toes. Besides which, do you really believe your socks soak up all the sweat you produce? My shoes end up with sweat in them either way.
That's way more info than I needed.

My 13 year old son wears a size 8 men's shoe and I buy him Youth Large socks. Youth Large is larger than a woman's sock and smaller than a men's sock. You should try them. A little foot powder wouldn't hurt either.
