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

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.

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

If they're thick enough and the nails are small enough.

My carpet came up off the board once and exposed little nails used to pin it down. Didn't realize until I walked over it barefoot.

And now I've got the feeling of nails in my feet haunting me whenever I'm not wearing socks.

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

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

[–] M137@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

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'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.

Team socks, and if I need to be productive: socks, shoes and pants must be tight. Otherwise is couch potato mode and cannot function.

[–] Okokimup@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

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.

"Can't fucking decide" sensory issues

"I'd rather wear crocs indoors" sensory issues

[–] dorumon@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week 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.

[–] psion1369@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week 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.

[–] BenVimes@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

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.

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.

[–] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 week ago

I can’t do work without slippers on.

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

[–] Widdershins@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

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

[–] neomachino@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 week 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.

[–] CheesyFox@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 week ago

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

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.

[–] Sivecano@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 week ago

Do not remind me that socks exist

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.

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 2 points 1 week ago

I used to sleep with socks on, so there's your answer. Unwashed, smelly socks.

[–] hayvan@feddit.nl 2 points 1 week ago

I somehow have both issues.
