Where did the knee-high socks look really start ? In high school, way back when, I recall a kid from Washington D.C. on my New England prep-school basketball team doing the high socks thing. Then playing lax in college I started to see my teammates from Long Island and the Maryland / Va / B-More area floss the high sock look. Is it a style, compression, or warmth preference ?
