I think that wearing two pairs of socks is more for show than anything. I don't know if it is anymore comfortable than wearing a pair of plain athletic socks, but I prefer to wear one pair. But if you think that it is more comfortabble than what you normally wear, than you should go for it, since  comfort matters more than style.

Oh, and check out Thorlo's basketball socks. I've worn them all season and have found them phenomenal!

Could be superstitious. Could be style. Could be to avoid blisters. Could be if shoes are little big.

I wore two pairs of socks in my season the only reason I did was because my shoes were too big

i wore 2 pairs of socks this past season and since then and i personally like it better than just one. i wore 2 pairs of nike socks (as seen in the attatched photo) originally i did it for looks thinking it would look cool. but i found out that it also helped with blisters cause i would always get tons of blisters on the bottoms of my feet. wearing two pairs of socks gives you more padding therefor you will get less blisters. but you have to make sure that the socks are pulled tight otherwise they rub and dont help at all. also my shoes were a little big, ordering them off-line so i couldnt try them on. and they helped with that aswell

As much as I like the ipad, I��m happy I am waiting for the second gen. I need at least 512 mbytes of ram, I want 1 gig. And I need the camera on the front, don��t really care about the back but it��s on the other two so why not the big cahoona.

1. Your feet dont move around in the shoe if its too big.

2. Ankle support.

3. Looks good!
