Some people change their socks every single day, to me that’s a little to much. I’m more of a 2-3days kinda guy. Is changing socks each day absolutely necessary?

Edit: Obviously something is wrong with me, I’ll take some time to rethink my life decisions and buy more socks! 😅 Edit2: I mostly wear wool socks, I hope that justifies this a bit…

    I only wear wool socks and work from home. I can easily go 4-5 days if I’ve only gone outside to get groceries or whatnot.

    If I’m going out to socialize though and it’s been more than 2 days I’ll get a fresh pair.

        Wool socks don’t need washing as frequently as cotton. They’ve got antimicrobial properties that make them take longer to get stinky.

        If you’re only wearing wool socks you can go several days, especially in the winter. Summer socks? Daily imo.

          What’s this thing called summer socks? I wear the same wool socks all year and it’s great! It’s either wool socks or sockless sandels.

              I feel like I’ve just been given an invaluable tip that I may have never ever received had I not taken part in this conversation about socks.

              I’ll remember this should I ever go to NYC
