Summer is upon on us and for tennis players that often means sunburn, sweat bees and the inevitable stark sock tan line. While sunburn and sweat bee stings are unpleasant, we know you love the way your pasty feet shine in a pair of flip flops … it’s the perfect look for the beach, a backyard barbecue or a July Fourth bonfire. Seriously, tennis players — don’t hide your sock tan line in shame. We’re calling the sock tan the trend of the summer; so throw away your fake tanner and put on your strappiest sandals. To encourage you to embrace this true mark of a tennis player, here’s eight things that look exactly like a sock tan line. Rock the permanent socks.
1. A Starbucks caramel macchiato
2. A zebroid
3. An upside down ice cream cone
4. This tall glass of beer
5. A paintbrush
6. This dog’s paws
7. A kitten with mittens
8. And a frozen banana
Still not loving your everlasting sock tan line? If that’s all you have, consider yourself lucky. It could always be worse.
