Somewhat even more annoying with ankle length socks and non-tall shoes - works fine with many, but with some particular pairs the socks run down just enough to make it impossible to fix without untying the shoes.
Glass shoes are extremely uncomfortable, trust me
A glass Chelsea in particular. Also, ankle socks in a Chelsea would be a bold choice with normal materials
Most women’s socks: “Fits size 4-10”
My sock size: 11
And this, friends, is why I buy my socks from the men’s section. I don’t have the patience to pick up my stupid socks every half hour.
this is why i never wear socks that stop at the heel or the ankle. i can’t stand the feeling of the edge riding down >.<
there was a little while where i had to wear compression stockings for a health-related reason, but i’ve come to really like how they feel being all the way up to my knee …
… and now i’m kinda interested in finding some pairs of thigh-highs too~ ^^;
Get a Thinkpad first
TRUUUUU!!
I’ll put linux mint on it because i’m a newbie ;3
Try that while working on a farm, in the pasture, in 100° heat.
Get a lot of guys wearing Chelsea boots to shuck corn do ya?
I’m not sure what this comment is referencing but nah. It’s just me on a small farm, small herd. This shit just happens when you wear the wrong sock with boots. And you never know it’s gonna do that til you’re in the middle of something and it does it. I always just end up taking the socks off and stuffing em in my pocket lol.
I live in a rural city. It’s pretty common for high school kids to “volunteer” to go shuck corn on local farms. The boot in this picture is a Chelsea, a slip on shoe that’s only a boot because it covers the ankle and is generally made of leather. There’s a large patch on the side made of stretchy material, and it would be absolutely the worst boot to wear on a farm.
Also, have you tried sock garters? Boots with no socks might be less comfortable than a garter. Though I avoided that problem by just buying new socks constantly
I have not tried that but I will look into it now. I don’t find it too uncomfortable without socks, I’m kinda used to it. But I could understand that for others though. Thanks for the suggestion!
I have what is ostensibly a desk job, but when I was in the Marines, my go-to socks were, believe it or not, dress socks, and inside out so you wouldn’t feel the seams on your toes. A buddy turned me on to it and I never looked back. I was always fortunate enough to not have issues with blisters or anything, so maybe I’m just lucky, but a good, calf-high dress sock was my sock of choice.
But my regular life shoe is the Puma Classic, and if I have on short pants, I’ll don the lowest possible sock. As some others have mentioned, the rubber grips in the heel are great. But if I’m doing a hike, for example, and wearing boots, even my mid-ankle Merrells, I’ll wear a calf-hig sock, no need to play games.
Gotcha, thanks for the advice.
Hurts just to look at.
“I pretend like everything is okay on the outside, but deep down inside…my shoe my sock is falling off”
Mid shin socks or nothing
I have socks with grippy rubber on the inside heel that, very successfully, prevents this.
Now make it wet and stick a piece of gravel in there.
Also you’re in bed with your feet under the covers while it’s happening.
With a blister forming on the heel.
Turns out laces have a purpose
