If you are a seasoned traveler, you likely know that you will want to get to the airport bright and early to get through security. Putting all of your carry on items from big bags to bracelets into a bin is obnoxious, but the most annoying part of the whole process is having to take off your shoes. While most frequent flyers usually just wear slip on shoes, there are always better alternatives.
You could always wear your slippers to the airport. Now now, don’t give me that look. Just take a look at the Acorn Slipper Socks. They are your basic tube socks, but have a reinforced sole so that they look more shoe than sock, and your feet will be safe and sound. They are $45, but to be comfortable before and during a long flight is a far more valuable thing indeed.
If you're an 80 year old white granny, traveling out of San Diego, you'll have to take off those suspicious socks, or be led away by some retard with power.
