For Gods sake Mrs Lemon, don't you read these threads? Don't you understand that stupid, vaccuous questions like this (and unfortunately, fools like me who allow myself to be goaded into a reply) just take up space, time and the energy wasted on being wound up by you.

What is wrong with you? You go on about trolls when it seems like the fun of this for you is in knowing that people get pissed off by your stupid thread. I suppose it's a big giggle for you.

Lemon by name and by nature obviously. Grow up and get a life.

I wear socks with my sandles, the reason is that I suffer from Tinnia, which is sweaty feet, and during the hot weather, my feet sweat a lot, and because of this the leather upper in the sandle would stick to my feet and thus make them sore, and that's the reason why I were socks in my sandles.

Another thing is why certain people wear jeans with laces, were the zip should be, I think that it looks silly, supponsing you were busting for the toilet or you suddenly had diarrreha, and you had to go to the toilet quick, if wearing jeans with a zip it would be easy and with a lace it's harder, to undo your jeans, it's the same with trousers or jeans with buttons.
I prefer zips on my trousers instead of buttons or Laces.

Surely you would be showing your intelligence if you ignored sad threads like this? I'm sure you have some somewhere.

"(and unfortunately, fools like me who allow myself to be goaded into a reply) just take up space, time and the energy wasted on being wound up by you."

Then again perhaps you haven't got anything better to do?? Have fun...isn't that what this is all about? I love up-winding!

Good point, Greg. As I will be spending a lot of time building boats this Summer and my feet and ankles tend to get real nasty sunburns, I will continue to wear socks and sandals. It's also nice to have anti-chafe gear on board until the tootsies get used to the annual switch to sandals.

Rudeness seems to be getting a little thick on the ground. Clog dance, anyone? (TROMP those rude lowdowns!)

I suspect that in the case of Birkenstocks, they're just so darn comfortable that folks will wear socks so they can keep on wearing them when its a little cool for barefoot sandals.

Don't mind the animal noises in the bushes, folks, they wouldn't know a lighthearted discussion if it bit them on the tail!

I'm puzzled about the whole thing. I went to Zellers, and they don't have any socks with sandals. They sell 'em separately for some reason.

I just bought a set of new socks. They include some bright orange ones, apple green and peacock blue.
It would seem churlish of me NOT to share them with you all, but hide them away encased in a pair of shoes! I think I shall have to break out the sandals!!!!!!!
Quack!

Men do it to attract very pale and serious-minded women who wear Birkenstocks, have really long hair, and work in health food stores. That's why. Most of those women are lesbians, however, so it usually doesn't work too well.

I'd forgotten this thread...
JAMES BOND wore sandals, saddle-stitched, of course, in one of the books, and in the WIndies! 'His only concession to the heat was a pair....' So, socks with sandals.

How cool is that!    Can't remember which book.

I tried wearing my sandals without socks the other day. The leather AND plasticcy bits stuck to my feet and they were uncomfortable to walk any distance in. With socks I can walk miles in 'em.

So that's why!

You can wash socks more easily than sandals. Same argument goes for underwear.

Dunno about that.

You've got to take 'em off, collect the load of washing together, shove 'em in the machine (unless you're doing it the old-fashioned way), remember (a)which programme to use and (b)to put the powder in, take 'em out, search for the missing one (see appropriate thread), hang 'em up to dry, take 'em down, match 'em up & shove 'em back in the drawer.

Or you could just swish your feet under the tap.

And if you wear non-leather sandles (such as my favorite TEVAs), you can wash them under the tap at the same time!

Why does no-one here admit it? This entire thread is full of excuses - worse, they're the sneaky snidey "I wasn't really looking, I just strayed onto the beach by accident" sort.

Socks n'sandals ought to be a Badge of Pride (esp with baggy-wrinkled 'Comic Scoutmaster' shorts.)
Advantages:
- Marks you out as a decrepit ole fart
- saves a lot of inane "getting to know you" chat
- stops women pestering you (useful in my case)
- keeps feet nice & cool after a summer shower
- advertises the fact that you probably sing shanties on an amateur basis

So come on chaps, time to come out & be honest. Wear them without excuse. Wear them everywhere. Work, formal dinners, in bed, golfing -
Sockpower rules!

Not only do I wear socks with my (Teva) sandals, but I plan to continue to do so as long as it is 35 degrees when I leave the house in the morning. Besides, herself made me a neat pair of Turkish socks to wear with them.
