    They’re not socks they’re leg warmers socks are worn over the feet which is the white bit the red and pink part is separate so is a leg warmer as they wore in fame in the 80’s

    It’s red and white stripes.

    They’re incredibly thin and makes it look pink.

    Most players cut the foot bit off the sock and then tape the remaining bit to the sports sock they are wearing inside the boot. I’m not sure what to make of it, it seems a bit OTT

    The top should be white however

    I knew we had them in the 70s, didn't know about the 80s though (however I guess one of those was the stars kit?). I somehow managed to confuse myself and thought you might mean that footballers in general look best in white socks.
