Black socks vs. White socks!

[Deleted member 768841]

Blacks socks vs. White socks. Let the battle begin!
(color socks like bright blue or green do not count, however cool you think you are lol)

 

[hitthefence38]

Black socks for sure.

 

[Tennis_Hands]

White socks for sure.

 

[mmk]

I wear both, but usually both black or both white. Doesn't much matter, since I also wear black ASO braces, so not much sock shows.

 

[n8dawg6]

i have the socks with the pictures of my dogs face on them

 

[Turbo-87]

Definitely black tube socks. The only thing that should be visible is the kneecaps.

 

[GeoffHYL]

Need a third option, gray. I like to pair gray socks with my gray shorts. White is my go to sock, but black is fine with black shorts.

 

[mpournaras]

Black socks with predominantly white shoes will automatically demote you 1 whole NTRP rating

Why do you think Borna Coric is having the hardest time cracking through to the next level?

 

[J011yroger]

My socks match my shoes.

Thank you, I didn’t think of that.

 

[J011yroger]

Your shoes match your? Bit by bit we’ll build the complete picture.

My shoes match everything else I'm wearing, obviously, except for when I wear my lucky rocketship underpants.

[bigserving]

It really depends on my kit for the day. I do know this though, whatever I wear, I make it look good!!

What?

 

[Notorious_Junkballer]

Traditional white socks with two stripes, blue and red. Anything else is unthinkable.

Great! Could you picture them?

 

[BorgCash]

White.

Calvin Coolidge Jr. died from wearing black socks while playing tennis.

Calvin Coolidge Jr. was playing tennis on the White House tennis court one day while wearing black socks. He developed a blister on his foot and the dye from the black socks got into it causing an infection which killed him a few weeks later. This was in the 1920s before antibiotics and the black socks probably used different dyes then you find today. But this led people to only use white socks for athletics for many decades.

Thanks for the info. Forever and a day believed one of those clubs that enforced white-only attire got him in the locker room. Tough room

This sort of thing is why baseball players have the “sanitary” white sock underneath the colored sock.

FYI he actually died of a coronary thrombosis.

President Calvin Coolidge died of coronary thrombosis. I'm talking about his 16 year old son.

Whatever is on sale at WalMart. Rackets are another thing altogether:

 

[Ronaldo]

Wear black socks with any shoe. Play on har-tru, even own and wear black thor-los.

 

[RogueFLIP]

^^Same......used to play exclusively on har-tru till the club closed, so switched to black no show socks. Stuck with them even though I play more hardcourts now.

Cannot wear no-show socks. Tennis shoe uppers ride high, cut into yer skin now.

I am shocked that it's a dead heat, 19-19 with 0 for grey lmao

 

[1HBHfanatic]

white socks for sports!!
black/brown socks for work

I use to see "old people", using black/brown dress socks to the tennis courts,, was never a good look

 

[PBODY99]

80% white

 

[Ronaldo]

Btw, how bout both. And no colours?

 

[Tennis_Hands]

Why?

 

[Notorious_Junkballer]

What would these 'no colour' socks look like, transparent?

 

[Knife]

Certainly black for clay courts, otherwise equally both to match the outfit.

 

[Ronaldo]

Colour to match a shoe

 

[tennytive]

I wear a black sock on my right foot and white on my left. I have two pair of these, but they're a real pain on laundry day.
