No socks. Really?
I thought that the selling point of "sock optional" was a gimmick. After wearing them for a week (not straight, obvi), I can tell you that my feet were comfortable, cool, and dry...Not the case with my other shoes with which I wear socks. The overall weight is really light and I love the accented (orange) shoe strings that were provided as well as the alternate gray. Now to get to work on persuading my wife to invest in a pair.
