I'm a no socks is too cold, socks is to hot, so I have to constantly be taking them off and on.

[-] psion1369@lemmy.world 3 points 7 hours ago

I only wear socks when I have to, and then they have to match exactly. Otherwise, barefoot and flip flops as much as possible.

I took a while to toughen up my feet, did some barefoot hiking and trail running. Now it honestly doesn't bother me. You can just get in the mood that, my feet are cold and that's fine. So I guess I wear socks when I want to.

I have must wear socks at all times UNTIL I'm suddenly all at once done with them then I MUST take them off

[-] nanoswarm9k@lemmus.org 2 points 7 hours ago

wool stirup-ankle warmers finger shoes.

socks when no braincells, unless the floor is pretty clean. then warmers or barefoot.

Natural fibers only unless sport material. Too many brands sneaking polyester and acrylic in. Sweatmakers.

It costs so to opt out of plastic...

must have same size/tension. DIY taught me such.

depends on the socks, how hot is it today

also the "am i a goblin-halfling hybrid today, or am i feeling pretty" dilemma

yeah, like the other guy said

don't remind me of socks

[-] Enkrod@feddit.org 3 points 11 hours ago

Used to wear no socks at all, had the stinkiest imaginable shoes, always damaged, lots of foot fungus and other feet-related health problems.

Now I'm wearing a fresh pair of sports-compression-socks every day and it's heaven for my feet.

[-] BowtiesAreCool@lemmy.world 7 points 14 hours ago

Shoes require socks, that’s fine. If I’m not wearing shoes the socks come off. This makes going to friends homes sometimes awful if I’m wearing just socks. Sweaty prisons

[-] mugthol 1 points 11 hours ago

Take slippers with you. I do that for some friends apartments that have cold floors

Absolutely not. Not only it is a hot prison but now each toe is in solitary confinement. Not for me

[-] whoisthedoktor@lemmy.wtf 9 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago)

Socks bad, shoes bad

They are feet prisons.

Bare feet club represent.

We rally against the evil places that require shoes to enter. Boo them!

[-] Sivecano@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 12 hours ago

Do not remind me that socks exist

[-] umbraroze@slrpnk.net 2 points 12 hours ago

I read about some surprising statistics over here. One of the leading causes of death: accidents at home. On top of that list: wool socks in the winter. Yeah I've slipped and fallen before, and I dread that, and I don't wear socks at home, thanks

Socks are oppression from society.

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 14 hours ago

socks alone make my feet too hot, but shoes are fine. is that a sensory issue?

[-] dorumon@lemmy.world 3 points 17 hours ago

I hate socks on my little paws. So I just don't usually wear them unless I have to go into work. I also exclusively wear bearfoot shoes because I hate when the front of my paws are scrunched up.

[-] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 24 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

..........neither? Why do people keep asking how autistic my ADD is? Seriously.

I prefer just wearing socks with no shoes when I play drums, so I can feel the pedal, and without them my feet will be cold on the metal. Is that what you mean sensory issues?

[-] tastetheplague@sh.itjust.works 8 points 22 hours ago

I like to subvert expectations by only ever wearing one sock.

Must wear socks at all times, socks must not flop at the toe or they are sent to die a horrible death.

[-] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 17 points 1 day ago

Floppy socks are to me a clearer sign of degeneracy than if I caught someone mixing poop with alcohol to make the poop last longer.

Socks are worn for 99% of my waking hours. They only come off in specific circumstances, normally involving water.

The socks must be well-fitting and put on straight, pulled up to their natural height and tightness. I prefer socks that come halfway up my shins, and I only wear ankle socks when working out.

The socks must be a matched pair. No mixing between different colours, cuts, brands, etc.

No holes allowed; if a sock gets a hole of any size, it immediately goes in the garbage. The widowed sock goes on my dresser until an appropriate mate is made by the splitting up of another pair.

On the other hand, I never sleep in socks under any circumstances. I find I get too warm.

[-] Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works 6 points 21 hours ago

Depends lol, I sometimes hate the feel of socks and other times I need the extra warmth lol

[-] Ciderpunk@lemmy.world 26 points 1 day ago

Socks are required at all times, especially indoors, unless showering or in bed. No socks in bed. Socks may be taken off if my feet get too hot but the socks must be left nearby to put back on, and also feet cannot touch floor. Socks nearby can only be then used to retrieve new socks as socks should never be put back on once removed unless in an emergency such as getting too hot.

Ideally said socks are then inside slippers to provide additional insulation from evil floor textures, but no slippers without socks. Also socks can never be pure white, that is disgusting, socks must be ideally black, but dark is fine as long as not majority white fabric. Socks must be tight enough to not move, but also not too tight as to cause discomfort. Also that inside seam near the toes must never be noticeable. If it is, those are coming off immediately and getting thrown away.

Boy this sounds insane when I type out all my rules…

Only socks with shoes. Can’t wear shoes without socks, but once the shoes come off the socks have to as well.

Socks on all times, sometimes thigh highs cause I'm homosexual like that B)

[-] jadedwench@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 15 hours ago

I wear "toe" shoes that don't need socks most of time. The calluses on the balls of my feet sometimes get too dry and tear holes in my socks, which gets a little frustrating. I usually can't stand the sensation of most socks, but I am good with my injijis or the comfy smart wool socks for boots. I can't wear any socks to bed as they get twisted and cut off circulation. So, unless if I absolutely need them for my footwear, or it gets too cold, I am not wearing them.

[-] ThunderLegend@sh.itjust.works 5 points 22 hours ago

Socks all the time..but not the ones with stitches on the toes! That's unbearable!

[-] neomachino@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 20 hours ago

Socks at all times. The plain black ones that end right above the ankle and I change them about 3 times a day even if I've spent all day sitting at my desk.

[-] Perspectivist@feddit.uk 18 points 1 day ago

It's not a sensory issue - I just like wearing socks. Not everything needs to be pathologized.

[-] peoplebeproblems@midwest.social 19 points 1 day ago

But do you get unexplainable discomfort when you aren't wearing socks? That's the sensory issue. If you don't get that, then it's just a preference.

"Ow, that nail has pierced the bottom of my foot and I don't like it" is a sensory issue of sorts.

"Can't fucking decide" sensory issues

[-] sexual_tomato@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 day ago

I've worn these sandals pretty much exclusively for the past ~7 years. I'm on my third pair.

[-] markko@lemmy.world 1 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago)

I'm glad they work for you, but I would not buy these purely because of the pseudoscience nonsense, regardless of how comfortable they are.

features our proprietary Grounded Conductive Laces™ and iON SYNC® earthing plug. These innovative elements create an electrical bond with the earth, mimicking the barefoot experience.

How It Works:

  • Grounded Conductive Laces™: Stainless-steel-lined laces and a copper lace plug weave grounding properties directly into the sandal’s design.
  • iON SYNC® Earthing Plug: A conductive rubber plug at the mid foot facilitates electron transfer from the earth to the sole of your foot.

Yeah they cater to the woo-woo crunchy people because that's the demographic that is likely to discover "alternative" footwear. I met one of these people on a hike, which is why I even knew they existed.

I saw that they looked comfy and that you could run in them, so I got some.
