socks
Shoes go over
Socks are cloth coverings for the feet, worn inside shoes.
They absorb sweat, provide cushioning, and keep feet warm.
I need to buy new socks.
To sock someone is to punch them hard: She socked him right in the jaw.
To sock away money is to save it.
Knock your socks off means to impress greatly. (Capitalized Socks was the Clinton family's White House cat.)
