how many days do you wear socks before you move on to the next pair?
Socks can only be worn for one day, if even that long. To wear them more than that is completely unacceptable. For those that do, you disgust me.
soooo, what you are saying is, 4 days is a bit much. :?
Listen to me. Take off your socks immediately, and burn them. No wash will ever help those. I also recommend cutting off your feet with a rusty hacksaw. You are so wrong.
have not bought socks since this thread...in fact I have only worn socks maybe 3 times since then...i like my sandals.
The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.
Are you putting them on your feet or on your junk?

Shoe/thong or shoe/flip flop? they changed the meaning of that word on me a few years ago.
shoe=shoe
flip flop=thong

has anybody else not bought socks since this thread last aired? or shoes for that matter. i need some new shoes.
I haven't bought any socks in that time....or shoes. Oh no, I bought some knee high boots....which takes my shoe/thong tally up to 5.

or thong/undies? I wear flops 325 days out of the year, but do wear dressier shoes to work. I wear out those thin dress socks in a few months. That's not to say my big toe doesnt stick out of a few pairs though Short socks last me forever
I couldn't tell you how long they last on the shelf but I have some input on how long they last when worn. Normally 1-2 years depending on how often you wear them. I lean towards sooner rather than latter because new socks are my heaven on earth. Once there is a hole you are past the expiration date.

Snap-On socks are amazing I have bad feet(bunions & in-grown nails. And these socks are amazing and they last a long time a year or better. That are expensive but worth every penny. imo

Snap-On.. Socks? What's the difference compared to an everyday sock? :think:
EDIT: Actually, they sound like they could be painful.. Are they the kind of sock that sort of latches (SNAP!) onto your feet and then don't let go? :shock:

We call them thongs in Australia....or flips flops.

UnderArmour no-shows suck. Loose the elasticity at the cuff rather quickly.
Champion cotton booties are decent work socks, but only last a few months.
Wool is the way to go. REI makes a good foot cover.
nike makes a quality sock. agreed. those little kids produce some fine material.
