Clinton once admitted he was "envious" of his predecessor's sock collection.
Bush has made waves in foot fashion, often sporting creative designs – including Superman-themed socks – while using his motorised scooter.

"(Bush) has been known for wearing coloUrful socks for years, but it has been most noticed really ever since he has been depending on wheelchairs for mobility – exposing his ankles," the former President's spokesman Jim McGrath told the New York Daily News.
