I wear my socks inside out for protection...

Myself, I put them on when using my feet. Once I get home I take them off and go bearfeet.

Yes, I see pictures of your countrymen all the time with nothing but sandals walking through the jungle. Aren't you worried about scratching or even shattering your feet?

actually I wear socks. But if I am private, not teaching, I wear just comfortable slippers, no socks, without to be worry of any scratches or something else. Even if I to a photo walk.

I only use socks in harsh conditions or for effect. Cheap socks can create issues like color bleed or lack of comfort. If you really think you need socks get good ones. Why would you buy expensive shoes, just to put a cheap pair of socks in them??

This is exactly the kind of no nonsense advice that I need. I don't normally walk around in harsh conditions, so I think that I could probably go without socks most of the time.

I have to wear compression socks for varicose veins, and I can't wear them alone or they'll get ruined. I wear those socks you get in a package of 12 pairs at Costco over the $100 Sigvaris socks. I see guys all the time with bad veins who don't wear the socks. I think they will pay for that when they're older. I'd rather be laughed at now and not suffer when I'm 75.

Plus, I do leg workouts every week, and I expect that my calves will be an inch or two larger next time I see my vein doctor.:D

As far as athlete's foot, Tinactin and Gold Bond work great when I need it.

Mikew, why don't you unravel them then re knit them to give yourselves a different style? That way you could get a couple of extra years out of them and people would think you affluent.

I go away for a few days and you are talking about socks? Grab you cameras and go out a shoot. And for those who joined in this discussion, go out and shoot a pair of socks with or without feet. Post this here.
