Notice the car parts on the left of the picture? Those are a result of a 2-for-1 special at a club, leading to much Jack Daniels consumption. DC-g4mbit's car has never been the same again.
Those are clearly all white quality cotton athletic and leisure socks. Admittedly, he could have opted for a different cut (I would recommend an ankle crew), but the over-the-calf's he is wearing do not detract from their style in any way.
