SEE PICS: Justin Trudeau’s Socks Are an Internet Obsession Once More

, 21 Sep, 2017 01:35 PM

    The Canadian Prime Minister owns several whacky pairs and this time he opted for a pair displaying the furry Star Wars character Chewbacca at a business summit in New York, while sharing stage with IMF Chief Christine Lagarde and Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte. Because, he's Justin Trudeau!

     

    Clearly, a fan of Star Wars, earlier this year, he turned the geek on and wore R2D2 socks on Star Wars Day in May while welcoming then Irish PM Enda Kenny.

     
     
     
     

    On Canada Day, the patriotism could be seen in the socks too.

     
     
     

    Canada Day essentials. Indispensables en cette fête du Canada.

    Known to be topical with his sock choices, Mr Trudeau has even used them to make a statement. This is him sporting rainbow socks at the Pride Rally in Toronto in June. A closer look would show you that the socks had 'Eid Mubarak' woven into the socks.

    Remember the 'NATO socks' he wore for the NATO summit?

     
     

    And his collection is constantly updated thanks to friends like Kelly Ripa and Ryan Seacrest who gifted the Prime Minister a pair with the TV presenters' faces on them.
