Why those Socks?

I always get tons of questions regarding my socks because I like to rock them high. Here's the story.

The History- While racing in SA about 4 years ago, I noticed this skinny dude named Steven Wheeler rocking some ultra high black socks. I really liked them and decided to give them a try. They actually made me feel a little better about myself because they covered my CANKLES and I wasn't hearing any more crap about them from G$, but about the socks. Being that my inseam is 29" and I'm 5'11", they always looked higher than what I thought, so people look at me a little odd.

The Progression- During the Tour de France a couple of years ago, Lance started wearing black socks that were high, and I'm not a big Lance fan, so I decided to make a change. From there, I went with the Erik Saunders choice of Capo Forma because they have the "Euro" version which I've learned from Cockneck is always a good thing.

The bottom line is that it got me some attention, and I'm big on that. You can say it's the Stache of my fashion lineup, only I can remove them if I want.
