I thought he looked very slick until I noticed he's wearing socks with sandals. Psshaw!
it was the style of the time
I was going to say that I don't see an onion on his belt, but then I noticed he's not even wearing a belt, he's wearing a sash, which is a pretty baller move.
Yeah, don't scroll down on this
Why is this such a thing?
It's a fashion crime, and very impractical.
Fashion I don't give a shit about, but why impractical?
Socks hold onto water, sand, and stickers like crazy. Imagine you need to walk across some grass in the morning, but there's dew on it, so you have wet socks on all day. No thank you!
You know this I hope, but let me state it in case ... you can change your socks. It's perfectly legal. And you can dry them, too.
Do you carry spare socks around with you during the day? Sure, you can. But do you want to? I don't.
