Try that while working on a farm, in the pasture, in 100° heat.
Get a lot of guys wearing Chelsea boots to shuck corn do ya?
I’m not sure what this comment is referencing but nah. It’s just me on a small farm, small herd. This shit just happens when you wear the wrong sock with boots. And you never know it’s gonna do that til you’re in the middle of something and it does it. I always just end up taking the socks off and stuffing em in my pocket lol.
I have what is ostensibly a desk job, but when I was in the Marines, my go-to socks were, believe it or not, dress socks, and inside out so you wouldn’t feel the seams on your toes. A buddy turned me on to it and I never looked back. I was always fortunate enough to not have issues with blisters or anything, so maybe I’m just lucky, but a good, calf-high dress sock was my sock of choice.
But my regular life shoe is the Puma Classic, and if I have on short pants, I’ll don the lowest possible sock. As some others have mentioned, the rubber grips in the heel are great. But if I’m doing a hike, for example, and wearing boots, even my mid-ankle Merrells, I’ll wear a calf-hig sock, no need to play games.
