Personal idea: shoes should be according to the pants that you are wearing. The color and type of shoes should be according to what you are wearing. Sneakers with formal attire can be really damaging. Socks should be the same color as your pants.


Well, that sucks the fun out of it.

its also wrong. socks should match your pants, and your shoes, but they dont have to be the same color as either one. as evidenced by some of the best combos in here being 3 different colors.

brown/blue/gray - is a great example, and there are many others.

I think that the socks aren't bad, of course the shoes and trouser are not bad too, but the mix it's busy to the eye. In my case I would used those socks with a solid trouser. Or what do you think estitchy?


and that is the disaster. i like all the pieces individually, but the socks do not belong here at all. :(

There was a lot more snark and sarcasm in my comment than made it through, apparently. :confused:
