Remember those socks?!

I had some. IIRC, they came in multiple colors with each pack, right?

Part of the “socks and sandals” look?

There were different packs, so you could get a ‘variety’ of colors (not all the colors of the rainbow, but, say, black + navy + red) or all with the same colored stripes.

I seem to remember they also came with a contrasting middle color sometimes.

I remember…those socks with matching color tank top and shorts in the same color range. Mom was a mix-and-matcher, a la Garanimals.

Not my dad… Anytime he wore sandals, it was without socks.

He generally did not wear sandals, though. Work boots (either at the plant or military issue) or sneakers.
