I have Nike sport flip flops for coming and going to softball and golf, but I don't put on socks till I get there and take the socks off when I'm done.
You see, you got the "Causal wearing b-ball shorts and extra long socks" crowd, the "double strapper back packer wearing" crowd (many got the weed hookup), the "extra big headphones wearing" crowd, the "hood bodybuilder who lifts once a blue moon, but looks like he could step on stage" crowd....
The "preppie, but I used to play Lacrosse" crowd (who'd laugh at the softball dudes, because they have enough money in the bank to pay Ninjas to 'play softball with your head'.)
