July 15, 20169 yr I find stockings chaffe my inner thigh so prefer socks. Although I am rather partial to fish nets.
July 15, 20169 yr If you go to play a bit of 5 a side with your pals and you put on football stockings then you're not playing the same kinda game as everyone else.
July 15, 20169 yr 2 hours ago, Mostyn6 said: socks cover feet, stockings cover feet and lower leg. and upper leg of women. At least since about 1780. Are you some sort of restoration dandy? If I'd have said at Belper School in the 1980s "owd on lads, just got to get me stockings and boots on" before a match i would, quite rightly, have been beaten senseless.

July 15, 20169 yr There's a women's lingerie football league in US based on american football. Perhaps you Brits should start women's stockings soccer. It might be something to get excited by.
July 16, 20168 yr If you're giving me the choice of my wife in nothing but a derby county shirt and little ankle high white socks, or my wife in nothing but a Derby County shirt and thigh high black stockings... Stockings, no socks, no stockings. I can't decide. If only Google would let me post photos, there might be a poll in here somewhere.

July 17, 20168 yr In the 1950's, football shorts were called knickers. White shirts, black knickers. Fact
July 17, 20168 yr Maybe once upon a time they were a stocking, now, due to our wonderful language and fashion changing they are a sock: wiki help:- "Socks are manufactured in a variety of lengths. Bare or ankle socks extend to the ankle or lower and are often worn casually or for athletic use. Bare socks are designed to create the look of "bare feet" when worn with shoes. Knee-high socks are sometimes associated with formal dress or as being part of a uniform, such as in sports (like football and baseball) or as part of a school's dress code or youth group's uniform. Over-the-knee socks or socks that extend higher (thigh-high socks) are today considered female garments. They were widely worn by children, both boys and girls, during the late-19th and early-20th centuries., although the popularity varied widely from country to country.[12] When worn by adult females, knee-high or thigh-high socks can become the object of sexual attraction and fetishism by some men.[13]" I left the last line in there as it may explain the need for some to have a thread in the forum;)
