When wearing pants, men's ankles should be...

Well?

Never visible!

Though you can't help it when you're sitting down sometimes so you better have your sock game on!

Better be like this, or you ain't stylin on bros.

Never visible!

  That's terrible advice Glock and imo it depends one 2 things

1. What look you generally go for and what you're comfortable rocking

2. What you're actually thinking of/are wearing like this

It's basically the same question as 'should guys wear V necks', re-named. It's a 'fashionable' look which can be done in 1000 different ways, some good, some bad. So with the right pair of jeans or suit, cuffing jeans or hemming suit pants higher can look really good imo. But you've gotta have the confidence to rock it. Surely you've gotta be able to predict the majority opinion in this forum by now though Oli I'd just suss somewhere like this for some looks and see if you like it or have something suitable www.thestyleblogger.com.

I double that statement. If that was a question specifically for shorts, then it'd be a little more interesting Cause I would pick Ankles visible for short pants!

I like the confidence boost when my opinion is in the majority though!

Well it wasn't really advice, it was an opinion but I get what you mean. I didn't think of any particular styles where you would be "required"  to show your socks...

I answered the poll mainly thinking of office wear and wearing white socks with your black pants and shoes... in which case it's not a good look!

Dont back down glock. Ankles should be covered by pants at all times. Its even better if your pants are capable of lookin good while standing as well as being able to cover your ankles while seated.

saw a guy on my lunch break with hisp ants folded up, no socks, proper shoes and a good 5-6 inches of ankle exposed. fair play to him, it was the look he was going for, but it was quite clear that he preferred the company of gentleman.

That sums it up, if you want to look 'fashionable' and are around the company of like-minded (maybe gay) dudes, you'll find it easy to wear something like that If you're in the company of hoody & Nike wearing dnb mates, you're gonna want to really have the confidence to pull it off whilst still copping a lot of shit.

I have a hard time believing that this -->  image not archived: tumblr_lzdruoXuE01qcc8qqo1_500.jpg
could ever look good anywhere, lol

I struggle to see how it could be comfortable

Especially if it was a little chilly. Frozen ankles!


Is that what you mean when talking about fashionable sock display Skinny?

Rocking the knickerbockers?

On behalf of females everywhere, I am here to say that if you dress like either of those last two photos, you will not get laid.



At least not by a lady. And probably not by a man either.

There's actually plenty of good looking styles for girls who like to show socks. The 2nd pic from Glock is just the worst example.

I think the only socks for men acceptable are these lol

No. None of those lady-sock pictures are good. None.

socks and thongs are also totally unacceptable

socks and thongs are also totally unacceptable

Same for socks and sandals, unless you are a German male over ~50

Socks and sandals is the bomb lol!
I hope your rocking that look all summer doob

Glock has carefully selected something that is horrid. But if he insists on striped socks, i would comfortably wear something like this

And actually have a grey plaid suit that is similar to this and hemmed a bit higher than my others to show a bit of sock when i sit or walk, it's just not as loud as this one.



Oli aside from posing the question which was pretty non-specific ('when wearing pants'), you haven't offered anything you specifically own or something you're thinking of buying that could actually be given a solid opinion on. Are you talking about suit pants only?
 

1. First pic the guy is black so different fashion rules apply. Yes it's probably racist but tough - that's how it is.

2. Second pic suit is so loud it's too hard to determine anything else about the fashion status.

Wasnt this guy from the Goodies?

I'm getting Gazman ads at the bottom of this page now... Google is telling me something!

Agree

Oh shit, I'm at the airport and some dude just put on knee high flying/pressure socks with his shorts and thongs. He has the socks pulled up as well. I hope they don't let him board..

LOL 1 is the most honest statement I've ever heard. Not even racist, don't worry. It's just an unspoken well-known fact

and 2... LOL
