The "Damn my socks are cute today!" thread.
 
Yes, here we have it. Back by popular demand. The thread you love, or hate, or love to hate.

Post here all of your cute sock/hosiery news. Wear a cute pair of socks? Tights? Fishnets? Thigh highs? Well, I wanna know. Just cause I'm kinky like that.

I'll go first:

Today I wore light blue David & Goliath socks that have pictures of cartoon boys on them that say "Boys are smelly".

I wore white socks today.

I own solid colored white socks, black socks, and tan socks. That's it.

For some reason I don't think I am going to be a huge participant of this thread.

My Annual or Maybe Biennial Sock Purchase Was Today
 
I bought a 6 pack of Hanes classic white ankle socks today. All of my calf length socks are black. Of course when I go to fold them, they still never match.

I do have some special winter socks that I got for Christmas that I could wax poetic about, but I will save that for later.

You have to wash all the black socks at the same time. Then, they will fade at the same rate. If you unable to complete this feet (hah), line up all of the socks you did wash, prior to pairing them. Just do the best you can. Only some of the people will laugh at for your mismatched fading.

I have struggled over the years with how high I want my white socks (while wearing shorts), to come above my foot (meaning, how long I want the socks to be). For some reason I have never been able to determine what looks best on me. Popping right out of the sneaker, or a little bit higher? It has always been a struggle. :sigh:

Dapper, thank you. The problem is my socks are all black but they are not the exact same socks, so that is why they don't match. I buy them so seldom that each time they are different. I need to make a note of it so that I buy the same exact ones every time. Then they will match better. Or maybe I could throw out the old ones and start over. There's a thought.

I also don't wear socks very often so my laundry doesn't contain that many socks to wash at the same time. I work from home and I mostly go barefoot. That situation may change, who knows.

I bought the ankle socks yesterday for wearing with tennis shoes and shorts. But I also got new flip flops, which I will most likely be wearing most of the time when I do need foot covering. I haven't struggled with the ankle sock length issue.

candy_coated_bitch 10-24-2013 09:42 AM
Yayyayyay!!! I love all of you, even those wearing plain, boring sockage.

Though I must point out, those with the plain socks seem to be the ones putting the most thought into it. How does that work???? *COUGHBullyandDapperCOUGH*

I haven't made selection for today yet, and so will report back later sock monkeys.

Scooby Doo socks today

PoeticSilence 10-24-2013 10:14 AM
Because my legs are wrapped toe to knee 24/7/365 in a combination of lymphedema wraps and farrow wraps with padding, I have to wear a special sock made with silver in it. Spensive sockys. I have two pair and have to swap them out every couple of days. Soooo...dapperbutch has a veritable clowns collection of socks compared to me. Mine are a silvery-grey. It's the only colour they come in.



***years from now I'll be in therapy about this, I can tell.***

Okiebug61 10-24-2013 10:16 AM
I have black work socks but I will admit I have cartoon socks and holiday socks I wear when appropriate.

I would think that having different brands would actually help with the matching process, no? Perhaps I should go that route. For my thicker "winter" black socks (not to be confused with my black, "dress socks"), I always buy Gold Toe. I buy them in 6 packs. I have actually considered starting over due to the time it takes to "fade match". I keep the suckers until they are gray with fade and even may have holes in the heels. I have the same problem letting go of underwear. The stitching can start to come off of the band, but I will hold onto them for a time.

Speaking of underwear, that was a 10 year search for the right brand/style (ending about 6 years ago). It was hard to find a pair that were comfortable (just "say no" to briefs), yet didn't bunch up in my pants (thereby effecting the "straight line" of my hips/thighs). I finally decided on a "trunk" style by Calvin Klein. We should have an underwear thread, as they are more important than socks.

I also don't wear socks very often so my laundry doesn't contain that many socks to wash at the same time. I work from home and I mostly go barefoot. That situation may change, who knows.

It may not, as you IT people tend to be blessed with jobs where you can go casual. I am a sandal guy myself, which is probably why I have done less research in the white sock decision making around length. I typically only wear sneakers when exercising. I am a sandal/shoe guy. At home, it is barefeet in summer and crew length socks with pants in winter. The sock length issue creeps up when I am wearing shorts.

This is an important discussion, I am glad we are having it.
P.S. Do you think the "sock people" hate us yet?

Nope. I find this discussion absolutely fascinating and impossible to look away from. Kind of like a bad traffic accident.

PoeticSilence 10-24-2013 10:32 AM
D.B. No, probably not. Just in case I would suggest making a stand by sock puppet that wears fancy socks or stockings to talk your way out of it.

Confessions of an inadvertent sock whore...

My whole life I only had the standard issue black/white never-quite-enough sock situation. Then I moved to where I am. There is a department store nearby that mails out $10 gift cards to the locals every other month or so.
They don't have anything else I want in that price range so socks are it. My sock-o-the-month club if you will.

This has been going on for 6 years. :blink:

Now my sock drawer is literally that, a drawer full of socks. Black/brown/tan/sports/hiking/stripes/argyle/yup even some with spots.

Today is wander around the house in socks day. Uh huh, brown that matches the wood floors.

:seconddoh:

Not my photo nor my feet. But I do own a pair of dalek slipper socks. They are my favorite pair of slipper socks. I know they arent at all femmy but I dont care! As they are just perfect!

BullDog 10-24-2013 11:26 AM
Dapper, I do often buy gold toe socks. That would be easy for me to remember, so that might help. I will be going through all my clothes in the next week or so. This discussion is very timely for my purge. I think it is time to get rid of the obvious mismatches but too early to completely replace my current black sock supply. (P.S. I mostly wear boxer briefs, just ordered a Fruit of the Loom 7 pack along with the socks and some other items. I went a little "crazy" on Amazon yesterday but still kept it under a hundred bucks).

Those look like the material/stitching cycling socks have. Are they cycling socks?

Ok, so I lied. I fogot about the number of cycling and hiking socks I have. They are all colors (the cycling socks), which honestly, I am not too keen on. I prefer solid, conservative colors (which I can find for the hiking) that match the cycling/hiking shoes or are neutral. Nothing crazy. I'm boring like that.

Gemme: Can you doodle on them?

No, I don't think so, they are medical sox. I used to wear these very lovely wool sox with wicking that kept my feet warm and dry. because I wore boots all of the time. After I get all of my medicine on my legs, then my medical sox, and then the padding, and finally the wraps, I can't even wear regular shoes, and thank god for Crocs because that's all I can get my lumpy little feet into. At least crocs come in a lot of colours and in a very sad way, it makes up for having all of the other stuff stifling my feet.
