These "minimal athletics socks" are entirely hidden by training shoes giving the appearance of not wearing socks, at first I found the combination of oversized shorts with undersized socks a bit strange, as if the wearer was making up for covering his knees by exposing his ankles.
Last year I actually bought a multipack of minimal socks for cycle camping, they cut the weight and bulk of spare socks I was carrying and were so cheap as to be disposable if I couldn't be bothered to carry dirty socks home. Worn with Lycra cycle shorts and cleated shoes I found them good enough to use again this year.
