It's hard to see in the shots, but I assume Indy wore dark socks? I found one shot where I swear they looked like white sweat socks, but it may take me while to find that pic again. In other shots they look very dark. Not sure if the are black though. Yeah, I won't ask about undershorts, I promise...  |

You know I have never even thought about the socks, that is a very good question. I always just figured they would have been similar to these military style socks since alot of Indy's gear seemed to be similar to military surplus of the day. www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/wwii-army-issue-socks-61513247 |

I've always been inclined to believe they were black.  -Josh |

I've always been inclined to believe they were black. I share that opinion, too.  Steven |

There is one shot from Crystal Skull where the Russian soldier throws the chains between Indy's legs and causes sparks. It looks like he's wearing dark brown dress socks. So that's what I wear with my gear. Let me see if I can find a screen capture...

Yeah, I saw very dark socks (perhaps black) in most screen caps. I need to find that one with white socks now... 8-S

Here we go...  What weird is that's the same scene as the one you showed right Josh? |

Here we go... What weird is that's the same scene as the one you showed right Josh? I'm pretty sure that's a rock or something behind his leg, not his sock. Look at the screen grab I posted. See how the black sock can be clearly seen, and to its left is something bright. If you look at the pic you posted you can barely see black to the right of that bright section. The bottoms of his pant legs would be jutting out in the front, which would leave his "socked" ankle laying up against the back of the pants. To make a long explanation short [too late!] I think it's just an optical illusion. -Josh |

In that pic, I think the white area is light shining on the rock. It does look like he's wearing white socks though, but the screen grab Josh posted shows his dark socks. I like to wear black socks with my Indy gear. I wear black socks anyway too. |

Hi everyone,
I was quite disappointed to discover, in KKS, that Indy was wearing white socks...I HATE white socks. Check the hypnotic torture scene, under the tent.
I will NEVER wear white socks with my Magnoli's Indy's Boots, as I'm no Afrikaaner!
Fortune and glory!
Yours,
Managua Jones
