Ankle Socks

How can you keep ankle socks from falling down?

Once you've purchased a pair of ankle socks and have problems with them falling down, the bad news is that there isn't much you can do to improve it. The best solution is to make some considerations before buying. Sagging begins when elastic wears out or wasn't originally in good quality. To stop this from happening, invest a bit more in higher-quality socks. They won't start drooping so quickly and you'll be satisfied for longer. Another thing you can do is buy a bigger size. Falling down can also occur if the ankle socks you bought are too small. When in doubt, buy a size up.

When were ankle socks invented?

Ankle socks became not just trendy, but actually necessary after WWII when nylon rations made longer socks impossible to find. They were soon seen as a new trend due to their shorter cut and more lightweight feel. During the 60s they became internationally popular and are now a part of most people's basic wardrobe.
