    i'd think so too..a lot of my friends wear those very low ones...apparently they're too low that sometimes they give blisters or cuts on the back of the heel ..cause they rub the back of the shoe..

    lol..feminine..i guess if you think about it, they knida are..i dunno, i see a lot of men wear them for badminton..anyone know if there's an advantage to wearing the ankle socks rather than the long ones? my guess is it frees up the ankle space, making it not as isolated to movement? that's just a guess though

    beside looking cooler, less coverage loose heat and sweat faster. In badminton, anything excess is not desirable.

    I do the same, 'cos my socks won't stay up anyway on my hairy legs and end up all crumpled in my shoe.

    What's with the shouting, dude?

    I agree with you she's pretty but the topic was about whether she wore a panty hose instead of socks. By the look of it, maybe it would be a good idea but then again, it's known to stretch easily and is slippery. How could that be comfortable when playing badminton? I know the advantage must come from being minimal while protected, the lightness may allow her to move faster, who knows.

    I think I read it BF somewhere before this one that some are wearing panty hoses.
