The aristocrat tried to invent things, but failed, and the family ran out of money, so he and his daughters had to move to a farmhouse, and the three daughters had to do their own chores.
As the years passed, the daughters reached the age of marriage, but the father became more depressed because he had no money to buy dowries for his daughters. Knowing the family's situation, Sage Nicholas (Santa Claus) decides to help them through this difficult time. One night, the daughters hung their stockings in front of the fireplace to dry after washing their clothes.
Saint Nicholas (Santa Claus) came to their house in a sleigh, and he saw through the window that the family was asleep, and at the same time noticed the girls' stockings, so he took out three packets from his pocket** and threw them down the chimney one by one, and just fell into the girls' stockings.
The next morning, the daughters woke up to find their stockings full of gold, enough for them to buy a dowry. As a result, the father was able to see his daughters get married. Since then, the family has lived happily ever after.
Later, children around the world carried on the tradition of hanging Christmas stockings. On Christmas Day, children in some countries have other similar customs, such as in France, where children put their shoes by the fireplace.

The shorter ones you are talking about are professional versions of football socks, which can be bought in stores such as AD, and there are long and short sock covers, the short one is the one that is pulled up to a little below the knee, the long one is the one that can go over the knee, and the one that generally turns down a section. Also, some players will use socks to flip in to protect the shin guards, which looks like they are custom-made, hehe, our teammates have played with that style.
