Amen brother!

My problem is, ohhh how can I put this delicately... MY WIFE.

If while doing laundry she finds a sock that does not pass muster, it has a hole, it's too worn, whatever, it gets tossed. Just that one sock. So now our sock sorting bin has grown out of control with what I am sure are orphaned socks. Perhaps I should catalog them all and put them up on craigslist in case anyone else has a similar problem and we can make a match. ;)

Not true! - It's just a tad more difficult, which makes them a bit more subversive. A quick flash of the ankle, and a world opens up for creative/expressive potential.

After seeing the original Bedazzeled, I knew I needed at least one pair of red socks in my possession - that was a movie that opened many sock drawers for me.

:D

Exactly! It's such a thrill for me to be talking to someone only to see a flash of exciting sock during a leg cross. Totally changes my perception of the other person.

I have a hard time keeping track of socks, so I rarely wear them. I really like socks though. They're so comfy. It's peds if I'm wearing capris, funky cheap socks, or white crew socks with jeans. Usually the only dressy shoes I wear have open toes, so no socks there. Socks with sandals are almost the worst crime you can commit, IMO.

Well, it certainly included the 80s and early 90s. I'm trying to remember when I switched from the calf-length (I did stop wearing colored stripes by the mid-90s) to the crew length, which aren't nearly so...retro when scrunched. Probably mid-to-late 90s. I never claimed to be particularly with-it sock wise.

I use Thor-Lo for working out, usually the short crew or rolltop.

I love SmartWool socks for cold weather. They come in many styles, including more fashionable varieties.

I love how you guys are so much like me....

Observances of socks. Intrigued by the small details...

I have an urge to knit decorative socks.

That's the good stuff!

Some of my favorite outfits are all black clothing and shoes with a flash of color in the socks. Then I'll add a bit of color to my accessories. Makes getting dressed both easy and fun.


I think I need to biy Chris some cool socks.
