    I'd wear sandals with mine in the summer but I just don't have a lot of jewelery. Never really thought about it. I think I picked that up from my dad. He's never wore anything beyond a wedding band. Once that ring decided to go for a swim it was never replaced and he never wore another bauble after that.

    Unless you want to count pins from all the archery rendezvous that he has been to. He's got a quiver full of em.
    I have always tempered my killing with respect for the game pursued. I see the animal not only as a target but as a living creature with more freedom than I will ever have. I take that life if I can, with regret as well as joy, and with the sure knowledge that nature's ways of fang and claw or exposure and starvation are a far crueler fate than I bestow. - Fred Bear

    I was thinking the very same thing! Plus, I did not know it was a woman's fashion either!

    While I have heard of them, I'd say it's more a North American phenomenon. Personally I have no desire to put a ring on my toe, that also goes for wearing sandals and a kilt with no hose.

    No toe ring for me. I've always thought of a toe ring as strictly for the ladies. In fact, I've never seen a toe ring on a man and this thread is the first time I've heard of it. OTOH, I had both my ears pierced back in the 80s when it was extremely rare on a man so I'm not one to gender stereotype when it comes to fashion. In any case, I don't think I'd find it comfortable.

    But that's the wedding ring isn't it?

    I wear whatever footwear seems comfortable at the time, whether kilted or not. But toe rings (to me anyway) just don't go on a guy. It could also be that I don't need any more attention brought to my feet, playing soccer for years kinda beat them up.
