I wonder if Balmain/Rodarte make socks MJ/PS cashmeres are pretty nice for the price ($50ish) but they don't tend to last very long Fake edit: http://www.thefrisky.com/post/246-th...ocks-cost-500/ Yes!

No matter what you think, socks are the #1 item you need to co-opt from a MC culture and incorporate into your outfit. If I saw someone wearing some crazy hott Jil Sander ensemle and then Hanes socks I would throw milk at them

i am non baller, and had no idea 'baller' socks even existed before 3 minutes ago when I opened this thread.

I assumed there were plain socks, and more expensive socks.

Can someone please elaborate on what makes baller socks baller. Materials, construction, cost,???

I don't wear white hanes, but typically buy my socks withink a 4 foot radius of hanes white socks.

Ayame socks
I'm kind of into these. I hate wearing anything lower than over the calf sox, but I could see these being used in the aforementioned artsy Japanese fisherman ensemble.

I wear socks from the dollar store, and if I feel like balling, Uniqlo, with a collection of 20-30+ pairs of shoes that cost a minimum of $500 each. (0)
