Barack Obama gets Socks for his Birthday

Teko Socks as worn by
President Obama
So, Barack Obama is 50. And what better way to celebrate than with a pair of new socks?

Apparently, after opening all his presents, the one he loved most was his new pair of  Teko Evolution EcoMerino Mens Light Mini Crew. These little piggy warmers are Organic, chlorine-free tekoMERINO™ wool with  seamless toes, arch brace and articulated Y-heel. And they have strike-zone cushioning in the footbed. Very handy for the President of the US.

When out to dinner with wife Michelle, Mr Obama wore his new socks, a sophisticated brown suit avec rolled up trouser legs (to show off the socks) and a bold red tie  He attracted much attention. The experimental choice of styling and footwear looked similar to that of Cheryl Cole during a live X Factor performance last year.

Obama Barack is many things to many people, but amongst his fames to claim, will we now add, 'daring fashion icon'?
