Swim Socks Who Wears Socks While They Swim?

Who wears socks while they swim? - swim socks

I was in Hurricane Harbor (water park) and I realized that this group of children with socks while swimming. And it was not like aqua shoes, these socks, the real significance of the shoes on dry land. Well then I noticed the guys are starting to see more guys in socks swimming. And I do not know if it sounds racist, but they were all black men.
I mean really, what is wrong with people today?
Have you ever seen anyone swimming in the cotton socks before?
