Members unicorn Posted January 20 Members Posted January 20 My fiance and I are on a tour, and one of the women on our tour put plastic tape around her ankles so that they wouldn't get abraded, since she was wearing "no-show" socks. My fiance also sometimes wears these, and then sometimes gets blisters or abrasions around his ankles because of this. For this trip, I begged him to avoid wearing those socks, since there's a lot of walking, and I don't want to deal with unnecessary ankle skin problems. I don't understand the reasoning behind these no-show socks. Do people who wear them believe their ankles are so beautiful, that others will be enthralled by viewing their ankle skin? If anything, I thought the plastic tape around the ankles made that woman look silly. I'd love to know why some people prefer these types of socks.... Marc in Calif and joizy 2 Quote

In my opinion, there's nothing worse than an old man (like me) in shorts with socks. And we get to show off our still shapely calves and ankles. 🤓 splinter1949, numerito and unicorn 1 2 Quote
TotallyOz Posted January 21 Posted January 21 My goodness, I love socks. I wear them with shorts. I need need others looking at me and wanted to see my old ankles. Years back, there was a member LetMeTellYou who obsessed over men in Pattaya wearing white socks. I think he called them the White Socks Mafia. LOL I was not a part of that as I started to wear brown socks. I hate those little socks that fall inside the shoe. If I had my choice, I'd wear knee highs all the time. . Much more comfortable. unicorn, joizy and Marc in Calif 1 1 1 Quote

omega Posted January 21 Posted January 21 I'd be tempted to say form over function, but I can't see that plastic tape around your ankles is more aesthetic than nice pair of socks. Maybe that's all she had? Quote

But when I know I'll meet somebody who believes socks and sandals don't match I make sure to wear both. reader, unicorn and Olddaddy 2 1 Quote
