Socks and hairy legs just don’t go together. The hair provides a nearly frictionless surface for the socks to roll down to your ankles. Which is pretty damned annoying, and you think someone would get used to it after a few decades, but, on occasion, it calls attention to itself.
Alas, neither going sockless nor shaving my legs is a reasonable alternative, so I’ll just have to bitch about it. Fortunately, I have this forum in which to do so.

I cannot… cannot suggest Old Navy black ankle socks (the version that go just above, not below, the ankles) too strenuously. I’ve been wearing these exclusively for about three months and I may never buy a pair of ‘normal’ long black socks again.
There’s a third alternative. While in the Air Force, I was introduced to Shirt Garters. Kind of funny little gadgets that keep your socks from falling down and it also keep your shirt from creeping up and getting bulgy around the middle.
They are not sock garters. They are sockspenders.
