After spending eons as the invisible, bastard stepchild in the footwear ensemble, socks are having their moment in the sun. A burgeoning industry is now developing, with bright colours, different textures and materials as well patterns and designs that otherwise were absent from the male wardrobe. Thanks to designer brands like Etro, Paul Smith and Kenzo, the designer sock has become a regular in men’s closets. For many of you that are unsure of whether or not you can pull off a statement or bold pair of socks, I’ve got six tips that will help you decide when, where and how to wear them.
Life isn’t black or white, so why are you? Unless you are going on a run or going to a funeral, plain black or white socks aren’t doing anything for your style other than supporting the fact that you’ve not really got any. I don’t believe there is such a thing as a classic pair of socks. Don’t fool yourself that it’s Armani – if its black or white, brand doesn’t matter.
You don’t get points for matching. Generally, the conservative approach for the casual sock wearer is simple – your socks should be a shade darker or a shade lighter than your slacks/ jeans/shorts. If your pants are the same colour as your socks, you might as well be wearing jeggings (yes, these exist for men as well).
