Re: {OT:} Sandles with or without socks

Summer is here and it's sandle time. Do you wear socks with your > sandles?


No, I mostly wear flip-flops, the kind that go between the first two toes. However I have some rubber Crocs my kids bought for me that are very comfortable but if worn without socks end up pulling on the hair of my feet while walking. I may wear socks with those but only if wearing pants also.

Crocs? I didn't know you were gay.

I think this whole thread is bizarre; a group of guys talking about footwear? Sandals, no less.

Ve only see ze sandal/sock combination ven ze German tourists are in town for ze golf tournaments, or ze opening of exhibitions at ze George Eastman House.

Live long enough and you never know what you might see.

Took me half a century to see this thread.

It was worth the wait.

I don't wear sandles.

But when I wear sandals, I do them sockless.

Mine too. We had a great time on Saturday, creek fishing and climbing rock faces in a nearby gorge. Mine doesn't buy me shoes which are known to cause accidents.

Ewww, hairy feet.... I can't even grow hair on my face.

Neither can one of my brothers. We think it's the Native American (Seminole) in us.

I don't have arm, underarm or leg hair - other women just hate me when I tell them that.

Before you ask, I have hair every place it belongs. :-P I also get annoying little hairs on my chin, since middle age.

Natalie

What on earth made you think any of us would wonder about other hair, you dirty girl?

"JoeSpareBedroom" ...

Um, you're mostly males?

:-)

You didn't answer my question.

Natalie

I hate you! :-P Okay, I don't care about the arm hair one way or the other, but the other two... no fair!

Tweezers are one's friend after age 40!

Sandals. No socks. The main point of sandals is to have cool feet; semi cancels that out if wearing socks. (Besides the fashion aspect.)

Cathy

You didn't ask me a question, Natalie.

"Cathy F." ...

I forbade my husband wearing socks with sandals! Looks dorky to me - sorry guys.

Natalie

"JoeSpareBedroom" ...

Troo dat, now that I re-read it.

I was asking RI if he were NA, since he said he can't grow facial hair.

Or was that you who said that?

My daughter, my son, and my sister missed out on that gene, apparently. They're all hairy beasts. If it makes you feel better, women in my family get thinning hair on the crowns of their heads by the time they're in their

60s. I have aunts who have bald spots. Even from childhood, we have shorter hair on the crowns than the rest of our heads. My daughter picked up that particular characteristic.

No way! Those things hurt like hell. I use hair-removal cream.

Natalie

I do facial hair like Nebraska does wheat.

"JoeSpareBedroom"...

Um...okay.

Natalie, backing away slowly
