More and more guys are wearing and showing off some pretty funky looking socks. And these statement socks have become a must have fashion accessory for guys everywhere from Wall Street to Silicon Valley.

For women, it's called hosiery, but for guys- this trend is being called 'brosiery' and it’s a way for guys to be expressive and unique in a way other than with neckties and pocket squares.

Fashion insiders also going so far to consider these colorful socks to be like lingerie for men. Here's why: only the guy knows what’s under the pants, but when they walk, they give a little peek.

On the expensive end, you can get a single pair of funky socks for up to $185 at a store like Barney’s, but that's like $90 per sock which is insane. And let's face it, at the end of the day your $185 funk socks will smell just the same as socks you could have bought at Walmart.
