The Lust List: Sock Boots

A few seasons ago, Kanye West dropped his Yeezy knitted sock bootie, and a new foot fetish emerged (or, reemerged, rather) on the scene. Since then, brands have been clamoring to get in on this latest boot trend with their own versions of the fashionista-favorite.
We’ve seen everyone from Kim K, Kendall Jenner, Gigi Hadid, Rihanna, and, most recently, Selena Gomez wearing them. Usually made from knit – but now reinterpreted in an array of textiles like leather, suede, satin, and velvet – the sock boot is a nod to the eighties that’ll give your feet a stylish twist of form, function, and flattery.
