Agree, looks terrible and those socks have got to be just filthy.

I live in Minnesota and a lot of older people have long worn socks with sandals, not in a trend-chasing way, so it’s funny to see something become hip that here has always been a clueless look.

My son who's 7 and is weirdly very stylish keeps convincing me that it's the thing to wear his socks with crocs. They're calf socks with stripes at the top. It is SO ugly.

Actually, calf socks look bad on most people too while we're discussing. It makes everyone legs look bad as it cuts off at the fat part of the calf.

I think this is an Asian trend. I feel like Asians, particularly Chinese, have always worn socks with their sandals. I notice a lot of trends coming from Chinese influencers now.



LOL you bought him crocs and claim he’s stylish.

I think they meant that not wearing socks is unhygienic. That's what my teen DD says, anyway. That your sandals get dirty/stinky much easier when you don't have socks on, and it's better to wear socks with sandals that can't be washed.

Everyone grow up. Germans and other Europeans (and Romans!) have worn socks with sandals before you were born. It's more sanitary and provides a cushion to toes and joints. Deal with it. Or you sound like a rude American

My kids wear socks with their crocs. I think it's weird, but that's fine, whatever.

Use your words with moderation, OP. You really don't mean what you're saying. Maybe spend some time in forensic criminology if you really want to gross yourself out.

I was so against this look but recently I had plantar fasciitis and I started wearing socks with Birkenstock style sandals and OMG it is so comfortable. I’m a convert.

I don't know if it's just gross or maybe because it looks so lazy and sloppy looking. It's not just those trashy slides and crocs, I see a lot of people wearing Birks with socks now, too.


Gouge your eyes out. It’s the only way to be safe.

Gross AND masculine?! Fetch the smelling salts!


Yeah, heaven forbid young gals dress feminine.


Are you an incel or an old biddie?
