Apparently, ankle socks are the new sign that you're old, and millennials are done
And on TikTok, users of a certain age have posted videos expressing their frustration and confusion over the banning of their beloved socks.
"We've gone too far," writes one women in a video where she tries to wear pink crew socks with yellow crocs.
Another joked in a video with 1.4 million views that she saved on Botox by "just buying the damn socks." And in a comment on the same video, someone else joked that they wore crew socks to the gym instead of ankle socks "and the receptionist called me miss instead of ma'am."
