Socks?

BJRich — Wed, 02 Nov 2022 01:52:53 GMT

Hi...am I the only one who notices the hosts and models never wear socks...they'll be standing there in a turtleneck and coat..with jeans (example) and wearing shoes with no socks...I know people must wear socks with many of the shoes/boots shown in fall/winter...I know they probably do this to showcase the shoe...but as someone who is style impaired...I would like to see them show the shoes as people at home would actually wear them...

I never wear socks either so don't think anything about it. I think many people dont. I don't live where I wear big boots or slough through snow drifts. I'm not out in the cold very much.

I wear trouser socks with boots and loafer style shoes. I wear athletic socks with my workout shoes. I also wear knee highs with slacks and pumps. And argyles and such with jeans and khakis.

i wear cozy socks at home, started wearing them a few days ago when the weather turned but often don't wear them with skecher type shoes. I do wear them with boots though.

I found the most comfy socks for me!

The toe seam used to get under the ball of my foot, and after standing for hours, it hurt terribly!

Quite by accident I found the brand Hot Socks and they are beyond comfy!!!

I have to wear socks when it gets cold....my feet just can't take the pain of low temps!

Once, several years ago I was waiting in line outside in February and the temperature was in the teens. I was wearing boots with regular socks (not thick). I was with three other friends and we were waiting for a show in NYC.

Well we never got in since they gave out too many tickets so we decided to do something else. However my toes were so cold they were hurting badly. So we went inside the nearest building just to warm up....took me a good half hour for my feet to stop hurting. No one in my group had this problem. Made me wonder if there is something unusual about my feet.

Lesson learned, if I'm going to be outside in very cold weather I must wear extra warm socks and maybe bring foot warmers.

Even though I wear sandals and flip flops all summer long, once it gets just a bit cold out I have to wear socks. I have gotten some really nice crew socks (I don't like them knee high) from Costco.

If I am not in sandals in the hot summer, I am in some kind of sock. I even wear thin socks with my Arizona Birkenstocks when the weather gets cool. I wear socks with boots and most shoes. I wear a "footie" as we used to call them with flats. I cannot have my bare feet in a shoe. I can sometimes wear with bare feet the real Sherpa UGG type of boot or my faux fur Birkenstocks.

I have all kinds/styles of socks and lots of "crew" or ankle socks. I even have a supply of toe covers to wear when I have an open back shoe or clog. I sometimes wear compression socks when my legs need them. I wore panty hose for most of my life and now that I rarely wear them, I wear socks. Absolutely obsessed with socks. I sleep with bare feet, but have socks to slip on the minute I am out of bed.

I wear socks in the winter when I am going outside. Never at home. Never wear them summer, spring or fall. I find them uncomfortable.

I don’t wear socks. I wear appropriate snuggly footwear in the cold and snow if I go out.

I had to wear socks every day at school all through high school. The good sisters at my girls’ school mandated it.

Did I mention I hate socks?

I Wear sandals until the snow gets too deep.

When I wear shoes, I always wear socks. I can't imagine putting my bare feet into a closed shoe. I hate wearing shoes and only wear them when I have to.

When at home, I am in bare feet...all year around.

I spend most of my time in athletic footwear, e.g., hiking type and sneakers. I find them uncomfortable if I don't wear socks. I have a drawer packed full of socks. I tend to collect them.

I do have a couple pair of Go Walk Skechers slip on's (no laces) that I will wear without socks since they're washable. Very comfy shoes.

At home I'm barefoot, but when the weather is colder, I will always be in socks. My floors are cold in winter. Even in TX.

Here in Florida, I only wear socks with flip flops. Just kidding! I have to wear socks for work and other than that I only wear them when the temperature turns chilly. I also wear them in the house if I'm not wearing slippers.

I wear socks year round. Only in the summer when I wear flip flops around the house do I not wear them.

I wear socks with my sneakers during my workouts, indoors or outdoors.

That's it; the rest of the day, no matter the season, I never wear socks.

I very rarely wear socks, even in the winter. I might put them on when it's 30 degrees below zero or snow blowing but not always.

I usually wear Bombas no show socks with shoes or boots so no one can see them anyway. I think it would be helpful if they showed some with socks and some w/o. Variety of ways to wear is a selling point...
