I'll start with this one...complete with head shot....but only because I have a niggling feeling I have met him somewhere....I am just too afraid to try to put my finger on it.... I think he may have been wearing a wig! Over to you..... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossy Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Yes, I wear socks with sandals (and yes, I'm a Brit). In my defence, your honour, I don't wear white socks, and I don't wear socks with shorts. I have awful stinky feet (you do not want to go anywhere near my trainers) so sandals in the office, exchanged for site boots in the car when heading out on site.

maprao Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I used to laugh at this... As I became older I have a need to wear socks with my sandals and trendy open footwear otherwise I get all sorts of problems with my feet in Thailand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgrahmm Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I only do if I take cleats off and we are going to get something to eat on the way home because sometimes the feet are dirty...... There are low socks that when matched correctly with dress sandals look good with beachwear.....however The high black sock look on pasty white legs is horrid and these people should be towed away by the fashion police.....the usually compound it by miss-matching stripes and colors strutting around feeling marvelous.....Can't think of another country I have seen it in..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoiBiker Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 The only time I ever wear socks here is when I'm going for a run. Other than that, no. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tolsti Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I wear socks 5 1/2 days a week to work but as soon as I am home they come off and into the laundry bin. Then if I am going out I put on my trusty Crocs..... ohh my god !! I've done it at last.... I've admitted to wearing Crocs. Can I get therapy for this affliction? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nevets Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Sometimes i rub a blister or have a cut and need to put on socks other than that i don't , and most times, i am going around with nothing on the feet around the home. I go back to big heavy boots and socks when back to engineering and thats makes the feet soft , so nice to get air around the feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

balo Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Not only foreigners wear socks in sandals.Also Thais wear them to protect the feet from dust or bacterial infections. It depends on where you are and the season. I wear socks in my sport shoes, but never with sandals.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WitawatWatawit Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I have sexy feet and sexy knees. I am not going to deprive this world of objects of beauty by wearing socks and long shorts or pants. If you want to see what I mean, come around - admission is free on holy days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patsycat Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 (edited) It's because men do not look after their feet. They chop at their toenails once every six months and are perhaps embarassed about the open toe regime of sandals. Whereas, us ladies look after our toes and toenails. We can go from wearing socks and snowboots to sandals in a jiffy. I know i can. I do my pedicure at least once a week. Stick my feet in a bowl of hot water, trim, etc, Just like you would do with your fingernails. Do you leave your fingernails to go dormant for months on end? I hope not. So why leave your widdle toes to suffer... And i can tell you - to see the state of men's feet sometimes is a real upchuck. They can be polite, well dressed etc but to see feet that haven't seen air since they were toddling around in granny's garden is a no no.

tonytigerbkk Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 (edited) Checking through my old albums tonight I came across an old picture of Neverdie that I have which was taken at Lancaster Gate Beach. I noticed that the same type of picture is used by Smokie in his opening post but I do believe that this is a photoshop of the original Neverdie picture. Recently I have been giving viola lessons to bangkokjulia (in my humidity controlled storage center), so at the moment she is heading my suspect list of foriegn operatives who had access to this picture. Investigations are ongoing and we are hoping to jump to a conclusion within the next 7 minutes. Edited February 23, 2015 by tonytigerbkk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patsycat Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) It's the willy warmer which upsets me. It's a know fact, if your feet are warm ie the socks then your whole body is warm. So why the extra sock? A ha ha ha - it's an ozzie thing, a bit of kulcha, Edited February 24, 2015 by Patsycat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
