Socks for feet that are not round blobs

no socks, but not as sensory issue

socks just aren't practical or useful. they make walking on some floors annoying, and since I go outside in sandals/slippers (this is my sensory issue, normal shoes are never comfortable) I'd have to take them off and on frequently. I don't need the warmth where I live.

Avoid at all costs, literally

I wear sandals year round

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

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.

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

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.

Do not remind me that socks exist

"Can't fucking decide" sensory issues

I fucking hate wearing socks but ever since I got COVID my feet are always cold, so now I wear socks and still hate it.

Socks with shoes 100%, flip flops/thongs/sandals 0%

Both. If I somehow get forced into the other socks mode, I must stay in it at all costs.

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.

Both, kinda. I want to wear socks all the time but I can't stop myself from picking at them so they get holes within a few days. And I have sweaty feet so I always get lint stick between my toes, never found any sock that doesn't do that. So even though I want to wear them all the time there are enough annoyances from them to make me only wear them when I go to somewhere other than my apartment where I'll take my shoes off, like a friends place.

I have unexplainable discomfort if I'm not wearing socks. The only other person I've known to experience that is my mom, and we are both adhd.

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.

For me it's temperature based. I'm wearing socks unless the temperature is above 27 Celsius, at which point I'm comfortable wearing shorts and sandals.

Under 23 C my entire skin needs covering except hands & head. I cannot stand exposed skin at that point.

When it's below 5 C I wear long socks because I lose a lot of heat through they legs.

I'm a recovering indoor shoe wearer, so socks are like my harm reduction. But I'm trying to wear them (and shoes) less in the house, because I believe it's better in the long term for your feet and back muscles. At least it feels like more work to me, and so it's probably good for me.

Wear socks all the time except in bed, unless feet are icey.

Hobbit feet

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

Yes

Socks are oppression from society.

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

Socks are the yardstick of civilization and must be worn as often as possible.

All the important philosophers agree on this btw.

~~If~~ When I'm not wearing socks I get foot cramps.

I can’t do work without slippers on.

If I’m just sitting at my desk in socks my brain does not connect.
