Is there something wrong with you?
What if I told you that for 10 dollars a week you could wear brand new socks every day!
Smelling like a dog? Time to change dem socks.
when they can stand up and walk away on their own, time to get out a fresh pair.
Had to every day with cotton. I can rotate my merino wool socks throughout the work week. 2 pair for 5 days.
i used to change socks every day, if i wore shoes, but since switching to only wool socks, i basically only change them once a week on laundry day unless they get muddy or something. wool socks can go a lot longer without washing than lesser fibers.
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.
Wool socks? Camping on a beach i would have just washed them in the water at least once and gone sockless while they dried.
I honestly can't remember but I wore the same clothes for the entire time
Change your socks!!!
Unless you're laying around doing virtually nothing change your socks daily!
Socks are for the weak. I wear sandals unless it’s a formal occasion and even then I only wear socks to protect my Jordan 1 low Pandas from me.
Depends what I'm doing. On an average home office day I barely even wear socks outside of dropping the kids off at school, so the pair that ~I'm currently wearing~ is on the floor next to my bed has been used three days in a row.
When I'm doing field work it usually means long days of wearing shoes, often in hot climate, and often loafing around airports. For those days I always pack three extra pairs of clean socks to have in my kit.
Bought a marino wool shirt because i was told this. Still incredibly itchy even if it was better than regular wool.
If you are somewhere pretty cold and unsociable then fine. You could also wear two pairs at once, the woolen ones on the outside and washed less often than thinner ones inside to wash often. Done that. Works well. Again; cold, kinda not social.
Alright, so, I change my socks daily but I wear them 3 or 4 times before I wash them, unless it's a) abnormally humid and hot, b) I've done an intense workout or c) they got damp/wet somehow.
I dunno. I don't stink easily and my feet and skin are on the dryer side. My feet don't have an odour for a few days if I don't wash them ( like if I'm camping), so it's not a big deal.
Usually, I keep a pair of socks stuffed into a pair of shoes for a few cycles of wear, then toss them in the laundry basket. Right now all my shoes that I wear socks with that a pair stuffed inside.
