I asked the hubs -- and I agree -- no socks with shorts. Socks with kilts, yes. Shorts, no.

I read this to my wife and she said "Do that and you can forget crawling into bed with me"

if you're not going to wear socks, you can put your shoes in the freezer the following night and they won't smell.

Some people like it when their shoes smell raunchy.

If you can't handle wearing topsiders or sandals without socks, then stick to long pants. (The same goes for women, BTW.)
Seriously I would be more comfortable being out with a man wearing a skirt than a man wearing socks with shorts.
But it's fun to make a fashion statement. I used to wear socks with high heels, often with leg warmers. But when I was young, I was so gorgeous, I could get away with it. Now, I have to be really careful to dress "normally". How depressing. But I do the Goth look when I go to formal events!

What -- wear a kilt? Hubs is Scottish and Irish descent -- and I love a man in a kilt.

Black ankle high socks for me all day. And make sure they are the low ankle socks that don't actually go above your ankle. Mine all sit way below the ankle bone. I personally don't like wearing anything without socks, and if there is anything in my wardrobe that I am VERY picky about, its socks. Wrong socks, I wont feel comfortable that day.

If I had white sneakers I'd go with white ankle highs.

Gee so many out here touchy on socks and shorts. IF you don't like seeing it CLOSE YOUR EYES!!! It's not your feet and not your business what folks wear Socks were invented for a reason to keep feet warmer and absorb the foul smelling sweat. [also keeps your shoes lasting longer]
