Socks or No Socks? That is the Question.

As more and more of you purchase our loafers, we’re frequently getting asked by customers “Should I wear these with or without socks?” Great question. The short answer is: BOTH! However, there are definitely specific scenarios for each which is why we’ve come up with this short guide to help you out.

 WITH SOCKS

• Socks with loafers can be great way to add some style points to your outfit (especially if your sock game is strong).
• Avoid plain white tube socks at all costs! Subtle introductions of color will really bring your look together.
• If you are wearing plain colored socks with your loafers, the unwritten rule says they should match your pants and not your shoes.
• Pair of thieves has some great socks at reasonable prices. You can pick some up at your local Target.

I’m wearing loafers today. Should I wear socks with…

Jeans – Optional, but let’s lean towards yes

Dress Pants – For work or business event, YES. Night out on the town, NO

Chinos – This one can really go either way. Depends on the season, outfit and length of your pants. When in doubt, wearing socks won’t hurt.

Capris – Nah, fam. Let the ankles breathe.

Shorts – Do we need to answer this?

SOCKLESS/NO SHOW

This look definitely tells people you know what you’re doing. Lose the socks and even the most casual of outfits can transform into a chic, dapper look.
