the only thing that surprises me (apart form the fact we have ANY supporters of socks with sandals!) is that nobody has pointed out the double faux pas in the first picture - socks with sandals=bad but BLACK Socks with sandals???!!!! :doh: WTF!!!!??? that is worse than passing the port the wrong way at the dinner table.... :micdrop:

did you think you were an English tourist in Spain???!!!
Actually, Phil defended that look because they were dark blue socks with the Lange logo.
But that didn't change my commitment to the style points. No offense to Lange.

I'm 53. I'm too old to worry about it. I'm married. If my wife divorces me due to sockal, I have have other problems. My heels crack. Yes, socks with sandals. My kids laugh at me. When they are paying my bills I may give a crap. But no socks with flip flops. I just can't rock the camel toe.

I'm sensing some anti-Britites here. And, to expose myself if not my toes, which way do you pass the port, to the left?

Hey if Phil looked this good I'd go with him.

Proof to the previous assertion:D these guys need all the help they can get! They must be dressed up - then they are referred to as "a handsome man", which is not too different than "a lovely lady", or "a nice girl", you know, the kind your mother or grandmother wants to introduce you to.;)

These would work, but really I don't know how anyone can wear flip-flops! I hate those things, incredibly uncomfortable :poo:

You really need to try on some current, new decent flip/flops......no socks.....don't know anybody who thinks they are uncomfortable!

Lots of great ones!

How about ski boots? With or without socks?
