If You Thought The Fashion Industry Was Weird Before …
20 Comments
So a few weeks ago, I was walking through a shopping mall when I came across these …
Now I appreciate as someone who never wears socks because he always wears Birkenstocks, I may be missing the point, however I have a few questions I’m hoping you can answer for me.
1. What exactly are ‘fashion socks’?
2. Why does the packaging feature men talking on the phone?
3. Are the men actually talking to each other and comparing notes?
4. If the socks are ‘fashion’ garments, why are the models wearing boring suits?
5. Am I taking some dodgy sock packaging way too seriously and need to shut the hell up?
Answers gratefully received. Thank you.

Comment by andy@cynic November 17, 2015 @ 6:31 amIt hasn’t stopped him before. Look at this blog.
Comment by DH November 17, 2015 @ 6:37 amThat just about sums it up Dave.
Comment by Rob November 17, 2015 @ 7:38 amanswer to point 5. yes. now shut the fuck up.
Comment by andy@cynic November 17, 2015 @ 6:32 amThe socks are less offensive than your Birkenstocks and their suits are less offensive than any of the 10,000 tshirts in your wardrobe. Just saying….
Comment by DH November 17, 2015 @ 6:35 amI have 100 t-shirts. But yes, you do have a point.
Comment by Rob November 17, 2015 @ 7:39 amand every one of them is some contrived ironic bollocks. you sad fucking twat.
Comment by andy@cynic November 17, 2015 @ 7:44 amThere is something very wrong about you writing about socks. I don’t know why, but I find this worse than your posts about Paul’s “unique parts”.
Comment by Pete November 17, 2015 @ 7:06 amI will show you this post in years to come Pete and you will see there is something very wrong with you to compare writing about socks as ‘worse’ than writing about my best friends best part.
Comment by Rob November 17, 2015 @ 7:40 amIf I looked like them, I’d wear the socks over my face.
Comment by Billy Whizz November 17, 2015 @ 7:31 amYou’re not that far off looking like them to be honest.
Comment by Rob November 17, 2015 @ 7:41 amFuck. You.
Comment by Billy Whizz November 17, 2015 @ 7:45 amAt least I look like a man.
Comment by Billy Whizz November 17, 2015 @ 7:46 amwith the standard of lady ive seen you underwhelm over the fucking years, you should have put the sock over their head. it would stay on much better than the paper fucking bag.
Comment by andy@cynic November 17, 2015 @ 7:43 amFashion brand marketing is the most trippy marketing of all. I am unsure whether socks qualify as fashion, but the claims on the packaging make a good case for them.
Comment by George November 17, 2015 @ 8:29 amAny comment from rob on fashion or socks is disqualified
Comment by Northern November 17, 2015 @ 6:55 pmAnd as for fashion socks, I had some ladies from Cosmo talking to me about this seasons body shape. I can’t believe folks are now pressured to change their bloody body shape
You only disqualify Rob’s comments on socks and fashion?
Comment by DH November 18, 2015 @ 5:30 amI’m being polite
