An example of an Argyle style pattern
Argyle socks

The argyle (occasionally argyll) pattern is made of diamonds in a diagonal checkerboard arrangement. The word is sometimes used to refer to an individual diamond in the design but more commonly refers to the overall pattern. Most argyle layouts contain layers of overlapping motifs adding a sense of three-dimensionality movement and texture. Typically there is an overlay of intercrossing diagonal lines on solid diamonds.

The argyle pattern is derived from the tartan of Clan Campbell of Argyll in western Scotland and from the patterned socks worn by Scottish Highlanders since at least the 17th century. (See illustrations in History of the kilt) These were generally known as “tartan hose”.

Argyle knitwear became fashionable in England and then the USA after the first world war. Pringle of Scotland popularised the design helped by its identification with the Duke of Windsor. Pringle’s website says that “the iconic Pringle argyle design was developed” in the 1920s. The duke like others used this pattern for golf clothing: both for jerseys and for the long socks needed for the plus-fours trouser fashion of the day.

I think those socks are really sweet. I actually just bought a pair. Unfortunately I normally associate Vans with pedophiles or people with bad teeth that live down by a river. This however is just an opinion and I recommend you follow your heart.

Your feet have over 250000 sweat glands. So its quite natural for them to sweat and soak our socks. However sweat is not the root of the odor problem but bacteria is. Bacteria growth thrives in damp and dark places. Sweaty feet and socks that have been in shoes all day will quickly grow these odor causing bacteria.
So what can you do to prevent the odor
1) Wear the right kind of socks – Make sure to wear socks that are clean and dry. In addition they should be made mostly of cotton to absorb sweat and allow your feet to breath.
