Most flyers wear the AMP No-Show on competition day. If your team's rule is that nothing may show above the shoe, the AMP is the pair; when your flyer wants more support at practice, bring in the Performance Crew. Both fit inside a cheer shoe. The AMP runs 20-30 mmHg graduated compression with patented arch support and ankle hold, so staying low costs nothing on the landing. For how a no-show fits and stays put inside the shoe, see socks with cheer shoes. Use the Cheer collection to shop, or the Cheer guide for base and tumbler roles.
The AMP holds the arch and cradles the ankle through the load a flyer absorbs on every landing, with the same patented support system our Performance Crew and Joule Barefoot carry, in the lowest-profile height. Made in USA and HSA/FSA eligible. Keep our Performance Crew for practice, or Joule when tumbling needs an ankle sleeve.
AMP, Performance Crew, and Joule all use 20-30 mmHg graduated compression, so a flyer picks by profile and coverage, not by support level.
A 2022 Russell & Mueller study (JDMS) measured significant force reduction during impact landings in Apolla socks versus barefoot, the kind of impact a flyer absorbs coming down from a stunt.
The AMP, Performance Crew, and Joule Barefoot are all sized by street shoe size, and the size chart lists every size that way. Confirm the flyer's street shoe size there before ordering, because a no-show has the least slack to run long or short inside a snug cheer shoe.
Apolla has 7,300+ 5-star reviews across its line and is Made in USA and HSA/FSA eligible, so a first cheer pair is a low-risk pick.
Confirm the flyer's street shoe size on the size chart before choosing a low-profile sock. The lower the cut, the less margin it leaves to sit right.

The AMP No-Show comes in nine colors: Black, Nude One, Nude Two, White, Gray, Lilac, Powder Blue, Fuchsia, and Navy. For a white-shoe uniform, White clears the check at a glance, and Nude One or Nude Two is the quiet pick if a sliver of sock peeks above the shoe on a deep landing. Save the brights for practice. If the coach bans a visible sock, the AMP stays the pair: it is the no-show cut, so order by street shoe size from the size chart and it stays inside the shoe. If the team wants more support, or it is practice night, bring in the Performance Crew in the same shades.

Use our Joule as the ankle-sleeve option when a flyer also needs support for tumbling or barefoot-style training.
Shop JouleUse this checklist to decide whether the flyer needs a no-show competition sock, a practice sock with more coverage, or the broader Cheer guide.
Kim G., a cheer parent, wrote: "My daughter loves the ankle support for cheer. Amazing the amount of support even in a low rise ankle sock."
Ask the coach two questions: may the sock show above the shoe at all, and must a white sock show? The first answer keeps the AMP; the second sends you to the Performance Crew in White.
Our Performance Crew is the practice pair when the athlete wants more hold through a long session. It fits inside the same cheer shoe.
Our Joule is the ankle-sleeve option when tumbling or barefoot-style training is the focus.
Some cheer coaches check that nothing shows above the shoe at competition. The AMP is the no-show cut for that rule; order by street shoe size so the top of the sock lands where it should, and confirm your team's rule before you buy a second pair.
Some flyers may want one low-profile pair for competition and a different coverage profile for longer practices.
Check the athlete's street shoe size on the size chart and how snug the cheer shoe already feels before ordering.

Check sizing, then choose the product that matches the athlete's role and shoe-fit needs.
Order White for a white cheer shoe, or Nude One or Nude Two when you want the sock to go quiet if a sliver shows above the shoe. The AMP No-Show comes in nine colors: Black, Nude One, Nude Two, White, Gray, Lilac, Powder Blue, Fuchsia, and Navy, so the brights can go to practice. Check the Cheer collection for what is in stock in the flyer's size.
Choose the no-show when nothing may show above the shoe, which is the rule at most competitions, and choose the crew when the athlete wants more hold or it is a practice day. For Apolla that means the AMP No-Show as the competition pair and the Performance Crew for practice. Both fit inside a cheer shoe, so one of each covers the whole season.
A sock can stay low and still be supportive. AMP No-Show is built as a low-profile compression sock with arch and ankle support, so flyers can choose a less visible sock without giving up Apolla's support system. The arch and ankle hold sit low under the foot, so a flyer gets the same support in a stunt whether the sock shows or not.
Not as the visible sock. The AMP is a full no-show that covers the toe and heel and is cut to stay inside the shoe, so it will not satisfy a rule that wants white showing above the shoe. For that rule, wear the Performance Crew in White; it also gives more support at practice. Plenty of flyers keep both: the AMP for competition and the Crew for practice and for a squad that wants the sock to show. The Cheer guide covers base and tumbler roles.
Choose the AMP No-Show for competition day: it fits inside a cheer shoe with 20-30 mmHg graduated compression plus patented arch support and ankle hold, in White and two Nude shades for a white-shoe uniform. If nothing may show above the shoe, that is the pair. When your flyer wants more support at practice, or the squad requires a visible white sock, choose the Performance Crew. Use our Joule as the ankle sleeve for tumbling. The Cheer guide covers base and tumbler roles; shop the Cheer collection when ready.
Start with the AMP for competition, keep the Performance Crew for practice, or browse the Cheer collection and guide when you are choosing for more than one role. The AMP, Performance Crew, and Joule are all Made in USA and HSA/FSA eligible.
