Joint covered by a sock (5)

I believe the answer is:

ankle

(Other definitions for ankle that I've seen before include "Foot-leg connector" , "Part of the leg between the foot and the shin" , "Location of the talus" , "Joint between foot and leg" , "Lower leg joint" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.com and the USA Today.
