This prompted me to buy socks cos apparently I'm an animal.
I wear merino wool socks. They don't stink but I change them each day, generally speaking. Wear in day, take off to shower and sleep, new pair in mornings. I bought 10 pair, wash clothes weekly and wanted enough to not worry. But if you hand wash them you can manage it with fewer pairs.
Loose fitted merino stuff doesn't need to be washed often, and sweaters I can wash once or twice a year since they are outerwear but socks are like underwear, sit tight on your skin and better to keep them clean.
Iβm on that Mr Rogers rotation: Twice a day. I work out daily which always includes cardio so changing socks is a must lol.
I wear sandals year round. No socks. I have a drawer full of really nice socks that I no longer have any use for.
I used to laugh when I saw kids with Crocs.
A few years ago, as a gag, I got Crocs.
I now wear Crocs and I'm considering buying indoor Crocs and outdoor Crocs.
Crocs.
I'll only wear a pair again if I happen to run out somehow. Then I usually get more socks to make sure it doesn't happen again any time soon.
I exercise regularly so Iβm changing socks like twice a day.
Hours, max 12
And yes I take two showers a day. Got to keep all the bits clean.
Iβll change my socks every day, and more if Iβm swapping out workout clothes for fresh clothes.
Oddly, I really donβt experience foot odor. Other bits can get rather ripe, but whether Iβm wearing boots or going barefoot, my feet just do t get funky. That said, I have had athleteβs foot and Iβve seen what happens when someone doesnβt change their socks after days of marching and working in the field. I know itβs not a major danger for me at this point, but Iβve got a whole drawer full of socks, and in any case I want them to match with my shoes and pants.
Plese reply me with picture of Kryten washing Listers socks with hammer.
depends on usage. If the day involves a gym visit or hike or something then more than once a day. Over a weekend where im mostly in the house barefoot and just put on shoes and socks to walk the dog, I might not change them at all for that weekend.
NaN. I live in the tropics, socks aren't really a thing.
If I have to wear silly formal shoes for a function or whatever, I wear them maybe two hours.
8hrs, but that could be a day or it could be a week.
24 hrs since I put them on for sleep and keep them on for the next day
7 pairs, 7 days. Costco Caterpillar socks.
I also change every 2 to 3 days, which is also the interval at which I shower and change clothes in general. So basically "Take off old cloth - shower - put on new clothes".
If they've been off after a day I don't see how you can put used socks back on.
I will wear underwear or socks more than 24h if i shower halfway into a day or if I am being sick/a slob and just not taking any clothes off.
Is there something wrong with you?
I think the question is why the fuck is everyone's feet in this thread so goddamn stinky that y'all need daily changes of socks even if it's like a weekend day or something
One but I will make a 48 hour exception for socks if you don't wear shoes as well and you don't leave the house, still a bit gross.
I once wore the same pair while camping on a beach for 10 straight days but those were different times.
What if I told you that for 10 dollars a week you could wear brand new socks every day!
Change your socks!!!
Unless you're laying around doing virtually nothing change your socks daily!
