POTUS SWAG — President George H. W. Bush with that GTH red-white-and-blue socks and Gucci horsebit loafer combo. You can buy a similar pair here.
It’s also worth noting that Bush Senior has a history of colorful hosiery choices, like these lavender socks.

Colonial Recreation (by massbat)
“On Saturday night I went to the Opera. I wore the costume imposed on me by the regulations of the house. I fully recognize the advantage of those regulations. Evening dress is cheap, simple, durable, prevents rivalry and extravagance on the part of male leaders of fashion, annihilates class distinctions and gives men who are poor and doubtful of their social position (that is, the great majority of men) a sense of security and satisfaction that no clothes of their own choosing could confer, besides saving a whole sex the trouble of considering what they should wear on state occasions.”

You absolutely need to read this entire letter.
