I also heard by the socks. Millennials do no-show, but apparently high socks are the style now? Those will never not look super dorky to me, so I guess I’m old now.

the only constant is that it’s pretentious

Millenial here, I never got on board with the no show or low cut or ankle cut or whatever socks, crew socks always. Probably not en vogue with any age group, but I also don't care. They go great with my cargo shorts.

Crew socks.... crunched down ti the height of ankle socks.

I roll them down to make a decorative ankle donut that looks great over my crocs

There’s a lot to unpack here.

No you have to pull them all the way up then fold them over 2 or 3 times

Thigh highs are where it's at nowadays :3

Huh, so I'm cool now?

I wanted to try merino wool socks, and all Costco had were crew socks, so I got them. I liked them so much they're all I wear now because they don't get smelly, even in summer.

I guess that's nice to know.

Has nothing to do with dorkiness for me. High socks fucking HURT. They dig into your legs so tightly because they have to stay up. How is that comfortable? Unless you’re going Unix socks level then it’s just gonna be painful to wear high socks.
