Then let me clarify for you. Nina said she needed white socks or white peds.

Just to be fair, blueangel said, "Check and make sure you even have to wear shoes during initiation." She did not say, "you will need to buy white pumps" or "you will definitely be wearing socks". In effect, her suggestion was that LM check with someone (her sponsor) first before making a decision about shoes - that sounds like a GOOD suggestion to me.
Shoes or not....I am excited for you LouisaMay!

Peds are like the shorter sports socks that only go ankle-high. You know, like low-rise socks. They are the only kind of socks I will wear!

They ususally have treads on the bottom too...

You like to argue, don't you?
Technically, yes... they both are socks. However, maybe it's a regional thing, but socks generally mean that they cover your ankles.
Peds are below your ankle.
Is there anything else you would like to argue about? Maybe you don't like my smiley faces? Or perhaps my spelling is poor? Have at it.

The peds I wear don't have treads on them; they're just low. I don't want people thinking I wear socks with treads inside my shoes. Hee hee! Like this, only in solid colors:

It is a brand name of socks as well. They make all kinds of styles, liners for dress shoes, toe coverers for backless, athletic socks of various styles, regular socks, and so on. I have found them to be durable and a good value.

I was asking a question because I really don't see the difference between the two. You're the one who likes to argue because my comment clearly wasn't directed at you, unless somehow miraculously you dictated to your friend what she had to wear to her initiation.
