They're tabi socks - meant to be worn with Japanese Zori and Geta sandals. They date back to around the year 710! Just took NIke a while to catch on :innocent:

That is exactly what I was thinking. My mom has a pair of Tabi she bought when she and my dad went on their honeymoon to Hawaii in 1970! She kept them around because she thought they were very cute and a good idea.
 
I actually love the toe socks. They are so comfortable.

:flower:
 
eek...They certainly defeat the purpose of flip flops. Who would actually want their feet to sweat when it's 80 degress outside.
 
Somebody tried to improve on the idea! Sanuk Toeless Socks:

Please let that be a person dressed up for halloween
 
I've once seen flipflops with no straps at all, they are supposed to stick to your feet. :shock:
 
muji makes adorable tabi ankle socks. i have a several pairs..they're really comfortable. maybe when i do laundry i'll take a picture. :)

i do have to say that most of the hideous ones posted here are, well, hideous.
 
Hahaha.

I used to wear toe socks (you know, the ones that are cut to fit your foot like a glove fits your hand) with flip flops.

Normally I hate sandels and socks, but it's cute in a weird way on some of those younger guys...:D
