Justin Trudeau’s sock game was stronger than ever at Davos

Justin Trudeau’s sock game was stronger than ever at Davos

Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau was in Switzerland to hear from the world’s leading thinkers on economics.

But it’s not all economic policy, global markets, and changing the world.

Nope. The Canadian PM kept up his grade-A sock game as he attended the World Economic Forum in Davos and was even presented with a pair of socks as a gift.

He was one-upping Theresa May in the sartorial footwear category of world leaders.

First up, just a simple pair of blue socks with black dots.

And it’s not the first time Trudeau has caught attention for his sock choice. He was spotted wearing Chewbacca socks when meeting Christine Lagarde of the International Monetary Fund in September.

And wore mis-matched R2-D2 and C-3PO socks during a meeting with Ireland’s then prime minister Enda Kenney on May 4, in tribute to “May the force be with you”.

He has pairs with maple leaves, Ramadan-themed socks, and even Nato insignia.

Socks and Trudeau. We can’t even.
