A wrench socket holder includes a post structure on which may be received a wrench socket. A flexible arm adjacent the post carries a boss which seats in a recess commonly found in internal socket walls and otherwise utilized for drive stud retention. A resilient member extends intermediate the post and arm to urge the latter toward engagement with a socket thereon to insure retention of the socket against all but intentional removal. A base of the socket holder may be shaped for sliding engagement with an elongate guideway or an elongate surface for the reception of several socket holders. A modified form of socket holder dispenses with a resilient member and relies on resiliency of the arm for socket retention. A multitude of socket holders may be supported by a common base on which several semicircular socket receptacles are formed with the holders preventing undesired socket separation from the holder.
