The worst thing a man can wear on his feet in the summer, according to women

Many of the men's style tips we talk about are relatively minor things that can add up to something greater: tie length, suit fit, or wearing moisturizer for example.

Wearing socks with sandals is not one of those things.

There are few things in the art we call style that are unequivocal. All of the rules we foster and advocate can be broken once you know what you're doing and can get away with it.

Wearing socks with sandals is not one of those things. It's such an obvious error, that even women in the r/AskWomen subreddit have voted it the worst thing a man can wear on their feet. Redditors on this subreddit can use gender symbols to signify that they are either a man or woman. For footwear, the worst-voted item was loud and clear with 118 points was this dreaded combo.
