@Andy Mink is poised with fashion statement bold

Others debate the length - bobby, calf or mids

Eh, or not German enough.
Germans, socks and sandals: Exploring the cliche – DW – 07/29/2020
Combining socks with sandals is now a mainstream trend. But even back when it was a fashion no-go, Germans couldn't have cared less. We look into the stereotype, as well as Germany's strong tradition of ugly sandals.

Their social media post with your photo says otherwise...
I'll give you this much...I wear my sandals in ski towns inside my condo or house with socks on b/c its chilly. But I don't wear them out into the snowy winter....

Sandals with socks...
No, please no, God no...
Here where I live in Switzerland, especially in the German speaking part, it's perfectly acceptable among the older generation to wear dark brown leather sandals with brown or black socks.
At the school where I work, the rector (principal) frequently wore a somewhat cheap blue looking suit with brown leather sandals and brown socks.
Yes, he wore this outfit even to formal events, perhaps especially to formal events.
Thankfully, he has since retired.
Of course, the younger generation is coming up with skinny jeans, luxury remakes of eighties tennis shoes, and no socks.
You can't win. Then again, to each his or her own.
Footwear is a broad church. Let us all worship as we will.

As they say, your religion limits you, it does not limit me.
