    Default How long do your socks last for?

    I think i might have a problem

    I rub holes in socks by like my 5th time wearing them. I have a bad habit of wearing socks for like 3 days in a row or more LOLOL. I don't have a problem with smelly feet at all so doing this is easy.

    Is it just me or your socks be gettin' holy too?

    socks come off at the end of the day. None of this two day bullshit. You will develop athletes foot and your shoes will stink like ass.

    I wear Sandals 90% of the year anyway... When I do wear socks, I wear the good ones from American Eagle or Nike makes some really durable ones... They give your foot arch too.

    That's really it, that's really the problem!

    I'm still gonna change 'em daily though. I'm scared enough to fear for my life after that other "cliffhanger," suspenseful post you made.

    Allstock, you might be on to something too.

    I don't have to organize my socks, I buy an assload of socks, all the same brand, style etc... No matching involved, pull out two socks from the drawer and viola!! They match (dress socks are kept in a seperate drawer). I changed my socks everyday so they seem to wear out evenly. When it's time to get new socks, all the old ones get tossed and the cycle starts over.

    Wtf how can you wear socks out so fast? I've had socks for well over a year before they start getting a hole. I don't even wear out the pairs of socks I play basketball in that fast...

    Socks are a very overlooked vital part of your closet. Quality socks wick the sweat away and helps prevent chapped, smelly, disgusting, Gorilla feet most you mofos have that cuts womens sheets and you can climb trees with and you can change your tires with just your feet

    Get quality socks!! I recommend Nike Jordan or dry-fit, very good socks.

    Also a business tip, ensure you have some male knee-highs for important events so your damn chapped legs are not showing when u sit down and move around.

    Hail Yeah.

    This thread is pretty funny.

    I pulled out some new socks today, rocked 'em for a few hours. I'm gonna try my best to NOT wear them tomorrow.

    I need your support people!
