Considering the winter temperatures in Britainia (and Germania) it's no wonder! All of the Roman reenactors I know have wool socks that they wear with their calligae. It beats frostbitten toes.

I don't doubt the utility, it's the aesthetics I find questionable! :P

They also used to paint all those elegant marble statues to look "realistic". I shudder to think how some of those color combinations looked on a statue - -

I wonder if they had the discussion sock or no sock with the sandals back then as well *G*.
