Sandals. Are socks cool?

Socks off, socks off. Why would anyone do otherwise? Saying that, I think men should think very carefully before venturing out in public wearing sandals. I'm not quite sure what it is, but there's an elusive something which means you can either carry it off .... or you look very, very silly.

see whether you get more , or women staying away from you when wearing socks!

I think sandals without socks look a lot better. There is something about socks and sandals that just don't look right. So for men and women, sandals without socks Have a great day

How about just NOOOOO! My dad wears socks with sandals, as do many old men but it still looks silly. I suppose if you wear dark socks of a similar colour to the sandals then that is acceptable in our 4-season a day climate. The absolutely worst thing would be to wear white socks with brown sandals. Why would anyone do such a thing?

Here in the southern United States, it's definitely socks off. But the English may have different ideas entirely.

OMG please dton't wear socks with sandals. And please get some kind of maintenence on your feet. Woman love men that groom themselves. It shows that you care what you look like.

I so wish guys wouldn't do this. It makes them so unlikeable and embarrassing. Even worse...imagine if women started to do it? Their sock/sandal wearing husbands would surely have to see the error of their ways THEN???

I didn't know you were from England....too cool...I have family in Liverpool, just not sure where lol. Now for the sandals problem: I think if you have horrible looking feet yes please cover them up, even with sandals but otherwise I think sandals should be worn without socks! As soon as it gets warm I start wearing mine again too, they are so easy to slip on! Tea with the royals, how quaint! May I join you!

OMG p1ke I thought for a minute you were going to say you wear socks with sandals and I started to let out a blood churling scream! Thank Goodness you are not one of those people! I am not to worried about fashion and what people wear but socks and sandals even I cannot bear to see! lol xxx

In my opinion, men in sandals with socks is a hugh turn off! (LOL) That should seriously be against the law in every country. I think it's downright repulsive and always get a laugh out of it when I see someone wearing socks with their sandals. I suppose it's a reflection of that particular person. I just have to laugh each time I see this as I know exactly what you're talking about. I'm glad you posted this discussion, and I'm even more thankful that you don't commit the crime (LOL) of wearing socks with sandals. The point of wearing sandals is having bare feet! You don't wear socks with sandals, you wear them with shoes where socks are appropriate to keep your feet warm. I've seen girls and women wear socks with sandals as well. It just makes me want to pull them aside and have a tactful chat with them about their sense of style. (LOL) I'm happy to hear it's getting warm in the UK. Here in Michigan (USA), it's starting to show a little spring weather. I'll be in my sandals (without socks!) before long as well! Take care, friend.

I wear sandals all year round - and no socks! But then again, I live in Australia, with much milder winters than the UK has (at the moment, that is - wait till global warming takes that out of the equation!). But I wish I had a dollar for every time someone has asked me "Don't your feet get cold?" or "Aren't your feet cold?" The simple answer is "No." I sometimes expand on my answer with "I'm a man. Men have better circulation to the extremities than women do." or "The wind doesn't blow down there - it blows up here." or "They don't get cold until I get home and take my sandals off - then I've got to get some slippers or socks on." or "I don't think I'd be able to do it if I lived in Canada or Britain or New Zealand, but here it's easy enough."

You are not old, and unless you wear socks with your sandals, you are not disgraceful. I am so glad to read that you won't. I would have to pretend not to know you if you did. It has got to be the worst look for men in the good weather and makes me just want to rush up to them and cut them off at the knees, so they'll never do it again. It's like badly designed furniture - it should NOT be allowed to be sold! LOL

Up in the north of England it will be some time before we get our summer clothes out, it has been snowing this week! Am glad to hear that you don't wear socks with sandals, it is unforgiveable. My Dad wears white socks, pulled up!, with his "Jesus sandals" it is just awful. So, get invited to afternoon tea much do you?

Socks off by a long shot. You just look weird sandals are on your feet to give you some air. Not for socks to block that air off. The reason you wear socks with shoes is because you dont want air on your feet and because you will get blisters and saw feet if you dont. So put it all together and you get yourself one equation. socks+sandals doesn't go well.

I used to date a guy that wore socks with his sandals. It looked really strange. I guess people do that kind of thing in the UK as I have never seen it in the States. I think it looks weird. If their feet are cold then why don't they just put proper shoes on? It has to be socks off.

Norwegian men have been wearing socks with their sandals for as long as I can remember, and I think it is the most stupid thing ever. And ugly. Now it seems the younger men have started getteing the point of sandals and are skipping the socks. I think it is embarrasing if my man wears socks and sandals - and i do not usually get embarassed easily

Doesn't matter to me. I don't think socks and sandals makes much sense because sandals don't keep moisture out, so if you walk through a puddle your socks will get wet. But if someone else wants to dress that way, well, knock yourself out.

Socks with sandals is completely wrong no matter what part of the world you live in. I say socks off but only if you take good care of your feet and they aren't all nasty. If they are nasty, spare us and wear sneakers with socks...if you don't your sneakers will stink! :) There's my two cents for what it's worth!

oh yes,during summer one wants to let the feet catch some air.i feel that there are people don't like dirt coming on the feet if they tend to walk a lot.so what i do if m going out and i know i'm supposed to walk i wear socks with the sandals but when i know that i'm going to meet someone or maybe just going somewhere where i would not have to walk much i give socks a skip!

off..i think u look retarded with socks on
