Sartorial question for the gents...
Further to a somewhat disturbing post in the IainK thread, I thought we ought to check exactly what kind of company we are keeping here...

Is this a male only thread, can 'we' vote on the naked toe situation too?

Never.
Come to think of it, I haven't worn socks at all recently.

Sock free is the only way to do sandals, It makes me shudder to think of a sock sandal combo or worse still socks and crocs

Re: Sartorial question for the gents...
what is worse is people who wear said socks and pull them half way up to the knee..tuck shirts in to their shorts with a belt to hold them up

Re: Sartorial question for the gents...
The answer is no....but never been keen on sandals anyway.
The straps rub.
Much prefer slip-on, deck type shoes.
(No socks of course)

Re: Sartorial question for the gents...
No fashion adhering lady would be seen out with a guy with socks and sandals.
It's just so wrong.

Even worse; socks with flipflop.
I've seen it done. Goodness knows how they were saying on.

Re: Sartorial question for the gents...
I, like many around me do socks with sandals, it is a little bit of a American Pacific Northwest thing, as this advert points, so is this not also a pan-Cascadian thing?

Socks with sandals, ideally paired with a burd wearing leggings with stirrups over her trainers & kids with shell suits tucked into white sports socks... My holiday photos...

They are probably wearing Japanese Tabi Socks!
Thank crunchie for the Internet. Now there's a business idea: flipflop and tabi sock gift packs.
