Flip-flop socks: our worst nightmare!

Flipflopsock I just had to show you these for the shock value! Yes, they’re socks designed to be worn with flip-flops. Could anything be more wrong? As far as I’m concerned sandals and socks should not be worn together. Frankly, if your feet are cold you should just put shoes on! The only time these could really be worn is around the house to wear in a new pair of flip-flops, and even then you're pushing it! However, if they somehow get you going and you really want to know, they’re $9.95 from Coastal Surf Shop and are made by, well, a brand called Flip Flop Socks of course! [Rachel Arthur]

Flip-flop socks: our worst nightmare! - Comments

Sorry, but I have to comment on this because while they are not the greatest fashion statement, I just had bunion surgery and I can't wear regular shoes right now - flip flops are the only comfortable option and I live in NJ...it's January right now. I ain't wearing bare feet and flip flops in January, so I am glad someone came up with these. My feet won't have to turn blue while trying to heal. Oh and by the way, the Japanese flip flop is called ZORI! The tabi is the sock they wear with the Zoris.

I must confess I have worn white socks such as those.....in Nagoya, Japan. And as much as I love them, I wouldn't wear them with anything except my tabi and kimono. With flip-flops or anything else is just ridiculous.

Even though I personally find flip-flop socks an eye-damaging site, I have a hunch these just might become the next trendy item!

Come on girls, we've all seen it: Uggs with minis in heat of summer, leggings or low-rise underwear showing pants.

My point is: something as ugly and useless as these have a great potential at becoming a trend. Just remember not to give in!
