There’s nothing more reprehensible in any men’s clothing department than Gold Toe socks. These are truly the sock of schmucks. John Travolta was wearing a pair when he danced with Uma Thurman in Pulp Fiction, and in my mind his stock dropped about 20 points right then and there. You’d have to be awfully clueless to walk up to a display of Gold Toe socks and say to yourself, “Out of all the socks being sold in this store, these are the shit!” If someone takes their shoes off and I can see they’re wearing a pair, I would immediately write them off. Just saying.
