For the past week or two I have been battling to find my favourite Falke hidden socks and I’m quite disappointed. Sportsman’s Warehouse have enough Falke cotton socks at their Rondebosch branch to actually be able to make clothes for the whole world, but they don’t have the Falke socks I want. They have everything else though; running, mountain biking, walking, climbing and whatever else socks you need. But not mine. Not happy.
Pathetic
I was just slamming on my Nike Dunk Low shoes and wondered what they would actually look like with normal length socks on. Normal length socks are quite popular with German tourists in Cape Town who like to wear them with sandals. These tourists always wear their “Safari suits” in the centre of Cape Town. I mean, obviously we are in South Africa so it is the desert and I do keep lions in my back yard as protection. Another type of person sporting the long sock look is wannabe American basketball stars and Mathletes. Mathletes are the top pf the mathematics world,and see themselves as the athletes of the maths world.
I have been wearing secret socks for years now because obviously I am way ahead of the trends. Obviously!
So trying my Nike shoes on this morning with normal length socks had me laughing because it looks ridiculous! I wonder how we ever coped sporting this look. It’s hilarious! Nothing about it is fashionable and it makes me look pathetic. Obviously my skinny legs don’t help here either, which is quite unfortunate.
You should try wearing normal socks for a day with shorts and see if you can actually handle it. I just walked outside and someone walked past in the street and already I felt as if they were looking at me. The dogs are even laughing.
It’s a crazy style that I’m happy has been done away with! It’s a style that needed to be DESTROYED! Apologies to German tourists in Cape Town and Mathletes.
