This really inspires me to up my sock game. I too went to high school in the no-show sock era.

Over-the-calf dress socks for men was a major discovery for me a few years ago. So classy and comfortable!

I picture boat shoes and ballerinas but that probably wasn't the teen trend.

Actually yes! Sperrys were considered very cool, especially at summer camp in New England. I owned a pair! So funny because they read very Nerdy Dad nowadays. Ballerinas were less “in” at the time.

Very nerdy now, you say? That's my cue to actually get them and be a trend-setter for their inevitable resurgence!
