Knee highs under trousers

I do like wearing the tapered leg trousers in petite so they just come to the ankle and mostly for sitting around at home but my feet get so cold .. I usually wear the little invisible footsies and ballet type pumps , but not warm enough. No way could I wear tights under, and not socks either ! So knee highs it is.... but... how do you stop the trousers sticking to the knee highs? I always rinse them in fabric softener, but still get the “stick” . Does anyone know of any nice smooth sleek sort of silky effect knees highs with no static ?

I wear them too and cant say I've noticed the problem. The trousers are usually jeans so cord or denim

Apparently a light spray of hairspray or a rub over them with a dryer sheet helps the static cling

Does it matter when you are at home? I wear thick thermal socks at home and take them off when I go out. Get big fluffy ones then you can slip them off quickly if you see anyone coming to the house.
