Who started the trend of wearing knee high socks that make you look like a complete dork? Is it not bad enough that male runners already wear those skimpy running shorts that don't leave enough to the imagination?

They make you go faster if they have stripes on them. Ask Juantorena.
Same reason they paint stripes on race cars.
Can we all agree that starting a LRC thread with the words "Can we all agree..." got old a long time ago.
Along with a dozen other idiotic memes that about 4 people find amusing.
But yes, knee highs are atrocious. Like that haircut you had in middle school, you're only going to regret later.

Show me a picture of her racing in knee high socks.
I might have agreed with until about 2 weeks ago when I started wearing compression socks. Good bye Achilles tendinitis.

Rapunzel, you got to choose your hairstyle in middle school ?
And, you still dwell on it ?
I guess you were raised by people other than your parents ( who must have been some uber white trash ) .

Same. I have been wearing them after having repeated calf strains and they have definitely helped. I really don't care how dorky they may look, if they are helping me run after an injury, I will gladly wear them. Many elites wear them, so they can't be that bad.
