High socks?
Just curious as to your guys opinions of wearing high socks for races. Not so much the compression socks, just regular old high socks

Mid calf socks are fine, but I think knee highs look plain stupid.

You have no rationale behind wearing high socks, idc how good you are. They look stupid.. Unless you're doing it as a joke and to be made fun of.. especially if you're an 800m-up guy (or girl), high socks are not okay.

wow you guys are awfully judgmental. i've never worn high socks, but they look pretty good on some people. i also think it's better to have some variety in the sock department rather than EVERYONE in the race wearing boring old "no-shows."

voted YES

I've always thought that it's okay for Long Jump and Triple Jump because it sort of prevents sand from getting in between your toes. Anything else, and you better be really fast so it looks cool when you run. Otherwise they are gay.

do compression socks actually do anything for your shins?

Compression socks are fine in my book. They might help you run, so it's all good. High socks? Not so much.
