: Tube socks are long-legged socks. apparently young Americans use them as furry condoms - just as well that they have nowhere to put them.

Tube socks are straight socks. They have no tailored heal. They are easier to make than crew socks so they are cheaper. Crew socks have an angle stitched into the heel. They are more comfortable.
