What's in a sock?Well when wearing socks, clothes etiquette says that one's skin must never be exposed between trouser cuff and sock.
In terms of what to wear with formal and casual clothes, Casual clothes can be worn with thick socks in ribbed wool or argyle knit. Business clothes should be worn with thin socks in smooth or ribbed cotton, and formal clothing requires silk stockings.
Generally we don't want to mix these up as dress socks clash with casual clothes.
One popular deviation is that people refrain from wearing socks with loafers or moccasins as in preppies.
It's like how women are sans hosiery in warm weather or all the time now. I'm not mad at anyone who wants to save the benjamins! Beware: If you work in a conservative setting or visit a religious place of worship, this may be frowned upon as being too exposed.
