      yes, ankle socks are millenial identifiers

      idc, they’re still better for most of my time (if they fit properly). they pack smaller, are lighter, don’t get covered in gunk that I can easily wipe off my leg but make a mess of the fabric, and don’t pull at my leg hair weirdly every now and then. also, like, I don’t need to keep more heat in, I already run hot as it is

      obvs there are still appropriate situations to use higher socks, such as wearing 6"+ boots, tick prevention, cold weather, etc

      edit: I just want to add that I don’t even wear socks in my flops flops when I shovel the driveway, so, my opinion should be considered with that context

        I love people who gate keep sandals and socks. It’s such a stupid thing to get upset about and I’m grateful for people using it as it outs them as loud mouth idiots.

          First off, I’m not gate keeping them, I just find it odd. 2nd, Im not upset about it. Breath for a second, please. It used to be a huge stereotype that old guys were the only ones who would wear socks with sandals. Now it’s trendy.

          Typically, I wear sandals if it’s hot out or somewhere I want easy access to bare feet, like the beach. I don’t understand wearing such an open shoe, then covering your feet.

            It doesn’t matter if you do it. I just think it’s funny in general how people do it.

            Like who cares what old men wear? Why question someone over clothes. It’s just so weirdly funny to be proud about having different ideas on clothe choices.

            Could just me, I really could not care less about fashion.
