Should my socks show?

I am about 6'3" and I wear Levi's 511 skinny 36/32. When I am walking, my socks slightly show. When I sit down, almost a full third of my sock shows. It's nothing horrible, but are they supposed to show, especially when I'm walking? If I get a bigger size, that will also make the jeans less skinny.

From what you describe, it sounds like your jeans are too short.

Get a longer length, not a bigger size. Get a 36/34, the leg will be longer, but the jeans will just as skinny as they are now.

It's a bit of a trend to have your socks showing. I like my socks to show when I'm sitting personally, but nothing too much. It does sound like your jeans are too short. Get a slightly longer inseam like the 34" suggested above, they'll probably still show when you're sitting and if you want them to show when you're walking, you could cuff them a bit.
