I was visiting my sister up in washington and i saw a guy on a moped wearing socks with sandals. I starting crackin up and she just shrugged her shoulders and was like, "Whats wrong with that? Thats the norm here." Yeah, I Definitely wasn't in Iowa anymore :)
I love that not only did they cover sandals and socks guy, but t-shirt and vest guy too! I am TOTALLY t-shirt and vest guy. Wore it yesterday! I love the northwest!
In my area the socks & sandals thing is really looked at as very strange. At least I look at it as very strange. Of coarse, with half the youth running around here with their pants half way down, what am I gonna say?
Socks and Sandals has worked perfectly for centuries in Japan. What is the fuss? Bottom line: It's very practical. It is comfortable. It is good for your feet.
Why are some people afraid of doing what works?
Arguably the feet are one of the most important parts of the body to keep healthy. We walk on them a lot right?
When my feet need protection I wear shoes or boots.
In my free time I wear socks and sandals. Happily and proudly.
@K4inan Feet are not important? Consider that our brain, hands, heart, liver, kidneys and lungs ALL walk around on our feet ! The foundation (our feet) is MOST important !
I wear sock with sandals AND A KILT! Sandals are cooler than shoes in the summer but my feet still sweat and that's just gross and uncomfortable. Ironicly the socks let my feet breathe enough that they don't sweat so much. If the socks and sandals aren't a big enough clue the you fasionistas can piss off, maybe kilt will cause your brain to asplode.
Why is it this subject brings all the raving lunitics out of the woodwork who think they know what's best for other people? Jealous of others that have the guts to stand out from the crowd perhaps? You can tell by the intelligence of the comments which side of the argument has the most brains here. I'd wear socks and sandals all the time if it wasn't for the f***ing moron 'fashion police'! Grow up you idiots.
I'm probably older than you and wiser, I left school more years ago than I care to remember.
In the UK it is considered the worst fashion combination going and yes you would be ridiculded by both young and old, you live in your little world over there and no idea whats considered fashionable in Europe.
As for being laughed at, I would never in a million years wear socks with sandals so I don't think there is any danger of that!
just depends on what kind of sandals you where XD who cares what others think of your style i wear yellow suspenders kackie shorts and socks with sandals LONG SOCKS and a blue t shirt plus when its a bit chilly a brown scarf dont like it then do something about it :D
I love the deer portrait shirt the guy's rockin' as well, another NW staple (of couse you can substitute the deer for many other animals of course, a wolf or cougar for example).
I'm more of a sandals without socks or clogs with socks kinda person... My hubby wears sandals and socks, crocks and socks... Sandals & socks are just fine~ Personally, we both like shorts in the winter too. Now that's NW!
"We laugh at sheep because sheep just follow the one in front. 'Ah stupid sheep!'
We humans have out sheeped the sheep, because at least the sheep need a sheep dog to keep them in line.
Humans keep each other in line. And they do it by ridiculing or condemning anyone who commits the crime, and that's what its become, of being different."

This comment has received too many negative votes show
Can't believe the number of people who think it's OK to wear socks and sandals.
Is it acceptable in the USA? because it certainly is not in the UK, you will get laughed at it is considered one of the worst fashion looks going.
But the UK has more style when it comes to fashion than America, also people are a lot slimmer.

Afraid of being laughed at, poor baby!
The Japanese have worn socks and sandals for 100's of years !
It is both practical and therefore fashionable !
Perhaps the only problem here is people who cry about socks and sandals.
Too bad, grow up. You are living in a tiny world of high school peer pressure.

I live on planet earth, and I know what is practical.
Many "fashionable" shoes leave people with squeezed toes, and ruined feet.
Whenever there is no safety issue, why not give your feet a break and wear socks and sandals?
I am not morbidly afraid of people laughing at me.
Again, that was high school days which are long past eh?
That is the most ridiculous, worrisome thing I have ever heard: "worst fashion combination going"
...like we are living in some day-to-day fashion show fantasy.
