The photo shows Jeremy Corbyn wearing trainers. not sandals. But I'm puzzled as to why anyone should wear socks with sandals, since surely the point of wearing sandals is to avoid the necessity of wearing socks.
I'm well aware that Roman soldiers posted on Hadrian's wall - or least some of them - wore socks with sandals. We know this because we have a covering letter from a doting mother who sent her legionnaire son a pair of socks. But it is entirely possible that those legionnaires did not possess shoes. In these circumstances socks with sandals are permissible.
