How often do you change your socks?

Inspired by a reel online, I was amazed by some of the answers.

as the title asks……..

how often do you change your socks?

im a fresh pair every time i get ready

Daily, unless I stood on something wet, or had reason to change due to exercise!

Depends.

Work socks, as soon as I come in as I am on my feet all day. Normal wear with shoes, every day. But if I am slobbing about at home and dont leave the house, probably every couple of days as they are not getting sweaty or dirty as I have to wear crocs due to plantar fasciatis

I used to be like this re: bare feet but since passing 40, I just can’t do it! My feet are freezing all the time!

🤢🤢🤢 Sorry but that’s revolting

This is extreme. Do you have other things you’re obsessive about? Genuine question

I found I got much less sweaty/ smelly once I went into peri, which I know is the opposite to a lot of people. I don’t even use deodorant in winter as I just don’t sweat and no longer get BO ( and believe me the people in my life would just tell me if I did as we are all v upfront about stuff like that). It must be hormonal but I don’t really understand why it’s gone this way. Socks… generally daily but I tend not to wear them v long so I might leave them on my boots and stick them back on again the next day.

Every day

This. Normal socks and out and about, every day. But my super soft cashmere ones, if I am just wearing them in the house for an hour or two then I'll wear them the next day

I guess I'm the only one then who wears them for a two or three days, and then puts them on like gloves for dusting the chandeliers and polishing wine glasses?

Thought so.

Daily same as underwear

Daily same as underwear

I’ve been out of the house in the wilds
all day yesterday and today and had worn the same socks (and clothes!) both times …I have changed my pants though.

fwiw I’ve never had smelly, or sweaty feet…not that there was anyone close enough to sniff my muckboots, I’ve been entirely on own.

I wouldn’t usually put worn socks back on, so if I have a shower and get dressed again it will be into clean socks.

I would always wear cotton socks under slippers socks (or slippers), so slipper socks could last for a while without needing to be washed.

Every day unless I had one of those days that they felt funny so I took them off after an hour or so.

Daily mostly. Apart from the pure wool ones I've never washed.

Every day

I hope this is a joke!

I change them every day or sometimes twice a day if I’m sweaty. But slipper socks or a second woolly pair around the house I wash less because they’re not contacting my skin. Same for jumpers compared to tops

I change the right one every other day, but the left one on my birthday.
It's because I favour my right foot.

I do lots of revolting things .

Everytime I take a pair off they go in the wash

I go thru 3 pairs a day sometimes because I always end up getting them wet, I do washing up by hand so get them wet or go in the bathroom geet them wet

Every day

Daily, but I've been doing the garden, or out walking, I'll change them again.

I usually change mine twice a day (morning and afternoon) on work days, as I am on my feet farming all day, and they get hot and sweaty in wellies (or wet, if my boots spring a leak). Occasionally, they may get changed more frequently if I get a hole in the heel. Due to us all getting through vast amounts of socks at work, we have concluded that we should have an additional Sock Allowance, and compare notes on the best and most durable brands of socks...

If I'm not in work, I only really wear socks if I'm going out (I like being barefoot at home!), but they get changed every day.
