I think it should definitely be illegal because crocs/sandals are supposed to be worn with BARE FEET, not with socks.

It is extremely humiliating to see a person walking on the streets wearing a pair of sandals with socks. It is an insult to fashion. Every time I people (no matter if they're adults or children) walking around wearing a pair of crocs or sandals with socks, I just feel like tearing them off their feet, it just makes me want to vomit.

Whoever wears sandals/crocs with socks in public places need to be prosecuted. Yes, including careless parents who allow their kids to walk around in their crocs/sandals with socks and have people laughing at their kid.

Sandals and socks is disgusting and needs to be banned!!

I totally agree OP.
I would also like to ban those reality male freaks from the likes of TOWIE from wearing those awful tasseled loafers with shorts combo.....just horrific.

4 people saying they don't mind people humiliating themselves wearing sandals/crocs with socks??? WTF???

You wouldn't want other people laughing at you on the streets for wearing a pair of sandals with socks and making a complete and utter fool of yourself in public!! It's 2016 now and sandals/crocs should be deemed unacceptable and as a thing of the past, no matter whether you're an adult or child.

It does NOT look "cute" on kids and it doesn't look "fashionable" on adults, it just looks absolutely VILE!!

I think people should be able to choose what they wear.

I might think certain items are poor taste but I'm polite enough to keep my opinions to myself, and mature enough to realise not everyone likes the same kinds of clothes and shoes. Some people don't consider fashion or appearance at all, and as long as they're covered, or wearing something that doesn't get them too hot or too cold etc then that's fine for them.

I'm far more critical of items of clothing "required" by religions than I am people exercising freedom to choose what they feel comfortable in.

And, socks and sandals have featured in several catwalk shows in the past few seasons, including Prada, so there's nothing unfashionable about that look right now!

Why do people with Crocs alwats seem to have filthy feet – apart from the fact that they're not wearing any socks?

They should be able to choose what they wear?? even if it makes other people laugh at them and mock them??

I'm sorry but I think it is completely wrong to wear sandals/crocs with socks when they're made to be worn with bare feet!! To me, it's just as embarrassing as wearing your pants on top of your trousers. Sandals/crocs should NEVER be worn with socks, no matter your age.

Well I wouldn't want to make a fool of myself in a public area wearing a pair of sandals with socks, it just looks revolting and absurd, no sane human being would even thinking of wearing sandals/crocs with socks. I'm not getting worked up, I opened up this thread to state my opinion on people wearing this disgusting "fashion trend".

You sound like you're getting wound up.

Personally if I don't like what someone is wearing I probably just have one tiny passing thought about it and then forget about it.

No one should be this bothered about what other people wear. It is silly to think it actually matters a jot. Most people don't actually care about fashion, no matter how many people we have here do, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Why on Earth judge someone for what they wear in everyday life?

Note everyone is so shallow, wear what's comfy I say. Bet you'd have a real laugh at my husband with his red crocs, black support socks, white bandaged ulcers and shorts combo.

Luckily he's thick skinned and happy as long as he can put one foot in front of the other each day.

Jeez, so much political correctness on this forum!!

15 people saying that they should wear whatever they want despite the fact that you may make people laugh at you by wearing sandals/crocs with socks.

CROCS/SANDALS were made for you to wear with BARE FEET and that is exactly why a lot of people think that it is weird/wrong to wear them with socks. It just looks wrong and humiliating. No sane, civilised human being with dignity and sanity that I know would lower them selves to make themselves look stupid in public, no matter how 'comfortable' they are.

If you want to wear sandals/crocs with socks, they should be worn behind walls.

Reminds of an ad for some fabric conditioner a while back "Downy" I think it was.

Guy sitting in an aircraft seat, obviously supposed to be a long-haul flight, says to camera:
"I'd better not get up, or they will see the creases"

So this moron is going to risk giving himself a deep-vein thrombosis,( and possibly dying) just so some complete strangers do not see the slight creases in his trousers.??

I can only assume the OP is also in advertising.

My opinion on Fashion, is that clothes designers should be physically beaten with baseball bats, to make them the size and shape that they seem to think people are.

Everyone should be able to chose what they wear, even if it makes people like you laugh at them, yes.

It's rather like wearing shorts with tights. Those two things weren't made to be worn together, but it seemed to become a fashion trend a few years ago. I think shorts and tights look really silly together, but once again it's up to the individual if that's what they want to wear.
