White socks are usually made of cotton material and so they absorb the moisture better which is why they don't make your feet smell unless you have an infection. Colored socks are normally made of man made fibers so they do not wick the moisture away like white socks do causing your feet to stay sweaty and increases the chance of athletes foot etc.

It's not because of the colour... it because of the fabric. Most white socks are cotton where as most blacks socks are designed to be dressier so they have more of the nylon blends in them... Its the nylon that makes your feet smell and stink not the colour.

Not true. It depends on the material of the sock, not the color.
