I’ve been an ankle socks guy since grade school. I sorta rolled my eyes at the young guys who started bringing crew socks back several years ago. Well I recently only had a pair of long gray dress socks to wear with my sneakers so I went with it. I liked it. A lot. Both the way it felt and looked. I have been converted to the crew.

If you want to give it a try, I recommend dark gray. If you’re hesitant, thinking people are going to be like “WTF dude what’s with your socks!?” don’t worry. I’ve done it several times now and none of my friends or family have said anything. Not even my wife.

If you want to join me but don’t want to spend the time trying to find the ”right” pair, I searched the internet for the best value+style dark gray crew sock option and settled on these.

That's primarily because nobody gives a crap what type of socks another person is wearing with their dress pants.

That being said, you should wear these with your dress pants.

I like the crew socks with cotton gym shorts in the summer time while I’m in the house. Keeps my calves warm, but not like wearing lounging around pants
Which are too hot in the summer. Then if I decide to walk outside I can just take them off and put on some deck shoes.

Please help me.

Ah... well... scratch the boardroom socks... that'd definitely look silly. Or make you look like an 80 years old man at a retirement village.

Still... nobody cares what socks you wear.

You wore ankle socks with jeans, etc?

I guess I've been a crew sock with jeans all along and never knew I wasn't in style.

With dress pants I wear dress socks though.

I saw a recent instagram post interviewing young women about men’s socks.

They all said ankle socks is not a good look.

I am still in shock. That’s all I wear and my wife has never said a thing. WTF do I do now?

Sock board. Or maybe the soccer (I.e.gay) board, since your sock soliloquy took more time to compose than the grand total of time that’s I’ve ever thought about socks in my life.

Crew sock bandwagon

Every time I think we have reached the end of topics discussed on this site, someone comes along and reassures me there is something that has been overlooked.

Those tiny ankle socks work down and I end up with a blister.
