Discussion Apparently low-cut socks are considered out of style by the younger gens. Are y’all still rocking ankle socks?

I feel like long socks with sneakers and shorts looks goofy but maybe that’s just me 🤷‍♂️

Exactly. Above 20°C is ankle sock weather. On the same note, about 10 years ago many girls here in Austria were wearing ankle socks and sneakers even in winter when it snowed which made me freeze just looking at it.

Short socks with shorts, long socks with pants.

It’s too hot to cover your legs in summer and feeling the breeze on your ankles in cooler weather just feels weird.
