Good one Pauly!! That is a good question. I wonder when people deemed that geeky to wear your socks that high. Obviously it was late 80s early 90s I would say.

Ah, man! Is that really considered geeky? Guess my magenta plaids have got to go along with the rest of my librarian wardrobe, I just thought guys thought that was sexy... Posted by MotleyRulz (Member # 3598) on :
I played soccer with a dude back in my middle school days who still wears those hip wading socks to this day with shorts. I just saw him this past summer and as we were talking it was all I could do to not bust out laughing.......

Last summer, I played softball with my socks pulled up, and a lot of people made a big deal about it. They said that this isn't 1940's ball or something, like Pee wee Reese used to wear sock lke that.
