If your black starts 6 inches above the shoe I will tell you bought lacrosse socks and not football. Just kidding.

I am more inclined to believe that someone is getting a monetary kickback by mandating the specific use of only TC socks. Follow the money!!!

In 25 years I have not seen a football sock where the black starts that high. Every football sock I have ever purchased (post stirrup era excluded) the ankle socks were high enough.

If the black of the your TC socks starts that high the stripes would end above your knee. Maybe you got a pair made for someone with a size 22 shoe or someone sold you a "blemished" pair (with or without telling you). Maybe you are only 3'10" tall.

I only made the suggestion to be creative.

If your local or state association is worried about the mathematical proportionality of how much white and black shows for every size of individual then they are administrators who are "educated beyond their intelligence".
