In order to be allowed to wipe over one’s socks, they have to have been put on at the same time, after completing wudoo’ or ghusl
Question: 2172
Answer
Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.
You cannot wipe over your socks in this case, because you put the first sock on before completing the act of purification (wudoo’ or ghusl).
