Loose socks are a type of sock that are popular among young
Japanese girls. They are long, white pairs of socks that are usually wrinkled down to the shin. They are similar to a leg warmer since they warm your bare legs. For this reason, junior and high school girls often wear loose socks with their school uniforms. Also, loose socks are said to look stylish by many scholars. They make the legs look longer.
Loose socks have been a necessary item for junior and high school girls since the late 1990s. Today, even elementary school aged students wear loose socks and the fad is likely to spread around the world.
