The Orange Carpet: Chunky Sweater Socks

The Orange Carpet scours SU to roll out the best of campus style (die, hoodies, die!).

Favorite Trend: Knit headbands

Trend that needs to “die”: “beanies that look like animals”


Chunky sweaters and cable knits are so popular this season even as socks. Ditch your snow boots for a day and pull on a chunky pair of tall knit socks with your favorite pair of boots. Pull them up with over the knee boots, or scrunch them down with sneakers and short boots. These socks incorporate the sweater trend in an unexpected place, and they’re warm! Freshman Advertising major, Christy Walshe, looked comfy and trendy on a frigid Syracuse day with her knit socks, chunky sweater scarf and headband. This trend is cheap but practical investment and can be used every winter!
