Hey everybody, what kind of socks are you wearing today?

[rzemanfl]

I'm thinking we should dig way back in the drawer and find some we haven't worn in two, three or even six years. Mine are old and white. I am a geezer and can get away with that. Hell, I can wear black socks with sandals if I've a mind to. I don't know why socks are so much on my mind since last night.

[janterry]

1. Handknit wool socks made of Opal sock yarn

--variegated blue/grey with a black contrast heel and toe.

I made these a few weeks ago

[rzemanfl]

2. Very cool, but sounds like a lot of work. n/t

[greatauntoftriplets]

3. I am sockless today.

[ailsagirl]

61. Ditto here

[Solly Mack]

4. None. But I did just now finish mating up a bundle of socks.

[rzemanfl]

5. At my age that's the sort of mating I do most.

[Solly Mack]

7. Socks are so thoughtless.

[rzemanfl]

9. Yes, but they require authoritarian organization. Just look around. n/t

[Solly Mack]

12. I had several singles. My socks tend toward defiance and I can live with that.

[rzemanfl]

15. For years I only wore black Gold Toe dress socks

to work and let them mate promiscuously. My socks always matched.

[Solly Mack]

17. That's some wild sock living.

I'm more into quirky socks. Though I do have a passion for argyles. Usually, no socks though.

[rzemanfl]

22. I go without socks most of the time here in FL. n/t

[mr_lebowski]

29. Same with me in AZ ... hell I wear 'em so little I actually have a hard time putting 'em on now

Same with shoes, come to think of it ... pretty much flip-flops or slip-on types for me.

[exboyfil]

76. Me too

Easier that way.

[ariadne0614]

38. In that case, you should try Bombas.

At least they’re fun, and feel good too!

[rzemanfl]

50. They have a happiness guarantee. Imagine that in these times.

[panader0]

74. My daughter bought me four pairs for Xmas.

I love 'em. They're rather pricey, but for every pair bought, the
company donates a pair to shelters, etc. Over 18 million so far.

[ailsagirl]

62. LOL!!

[ariadne0614]

40. Me too!

They were hanging on the drying rack. Now they’re nestled neatly in a drawer.

[Solly Mack]

41. If only they would stay in the drawer.

But, no.

[jberryhill]

6. None

[rzemanfl]

8. The weather here is approaching no socks for months time. n/t

[jberryhill]

11. Well I only stepped out in flip flops to get the paper

Suiting up for a bike ride though... so going with the smartwool merino knee highs...

[rzemanfl]

13. Have a good ride and be careful. Suiting up sounds serious. n/t

[A HERETIC I AM]

19. Nun.

I visited a convent last week and....


HEY! I FOUND THEM!

Don't judge me.

[rzemanfl]

23. No need to, the heresy is right in your username.

[California_Republic]

10. Costco Whites

[rzemanfl]

14. Mine are probably from some now out of business store. n/t

[safeinOhio]

16. Have on my religious socks...

they are holy.

[rzemanfl]

25. As too many people down here say, you are blessed. n/t

[VarryOn]

51. I have some of those! Nt

[justhanginon]

18. I prefer to keep my socks life private but thanks for asking!

[rzemanfl]

24. Took a minute. LOL. n/t

[Totally Tunsie]

20. Funny you should ask...

In a burst of organization, I pulled out my sock drawer last week, dumped it on the floor and sorted, rematched, or tossed. I knew there had to be at least twenty pairs of black socks in there somewhere, but they always eluded me when they were needed. A-a-a-a-nd, there they were! Some that I had worn over and over needed to be delinted and defuzzed, so out came the lint brush and a mildly dull razor.

It's amazing how an organized sock drawer can make you happy! (I lead such an exciting life...)

[rzemanfl]

33. That is exciting. n/t

[Lochloosa]

21. What are these things called socks? This Floridian would like to know.

[rzemanfl]

26. You must be south of the coconut line. I need them here in Pinellas sometimes.

They are a foot covering. You can google them.

[mr_lebowski]

31. Lol ... this Arizonan had the same question :) (nt)

[Freddie]

27. In the cold seasons I like to wear pants-boots

Therefore your socks don’t have to match. I’m going formal today as they DO match.

[rzemanfl]

30. I have a very old pair of boots here I brought down in case of roofing nails after

hurricane.

[AncientGeezer]

28. Woolrich....it's only 30*'s up here in the pneumonia hole of Upstate NY.

We still have a substantial snow pack

[Kablooie]

32. I always wear unmatched striped socks of various colors.

Because.

I meet old friends from years ago and they often want to check my socks.
They are pleased to see I haven't changed.

[Croney]

34. Funny you should ask. Somebody gave me a pair of black Cole Haan socks a couple years ago,

and I wore them out. Apparently they are extinct in this particular sock. They're partly bamboo, so I just ordered two styles on eBay that look similar.

I have two full sock drawers because I always say "socks" when asked what I'd like as a gift. But none have pleased me like the Cole Haans.

I feel like Mr. Pitt.

[silverweb]

43. I used to work with someone who did that.

Every morning at work, we had to check her socks out before our day could proceed.

[MontanaMama]

35. No socks here!

It’s gonna be 50 degrees here today! No socks from here until October.

[louis-t]

36. Gold toe. They're like 24" long when you buy them.

Wash them a couple times and they shrink down to 7 inches.

[samnsara]

37. dog paw print

[3catwoman3]

39. Another no socks devotee here.

I find most socks are cut way too tight. I have what I think most people would consider normal circumference legs for an adult woman. most socks look as if they are made for the slender legs of 8 yr olds. Stranglingly tight.

[silverweb]

42. Toe socks & sandals.

Sooo comfy!

[Different Drummer]

47. Didn't realize toe socks were still around.

I thought they went out with the 70's. Good to know I'm wrong,

[silverweb]

60. Amazon has them.

[IrishEyes]

44. Grey Calvin Klein socks

They are very comfortable.

[surrealAmerican]

45. ugly off-white crew length

It says "ultimax" on the side of each sock. They're probably about 10 years old - super hard-wearing socks that stay up in my boots. I re-found this pair last year when I reorganized the sock drawer.

[Wounded Bear]

46. I'm kind of the official PNW socks with sandals guy...

[Different Drummer]

48. None. I gave up socks years ago. n/t

[sakabatou]

49. Enerwear

[SWBTATTReg]

52. I'll 'sock' it to you! I'm wearing just plain ol' gym socks/white socks...they must be 100 years...

old and I have only 500 pairs left! Ha!

[rzemanfl]

53. Live long and prosper. n/t

[SWBTATTReg]

54. Thanks!! I got a nice laugh out of this post...thanks for pick me up!! NT

[TexasTowelie]

55. Black socks for diabetics.

I used to wear white socks for diabetics, but they would either get mismatched or dingy.

[rzemanfl]

56. I wore compression socks to work for years when I rode a desk.

Still wear them when I fly. Watch for a PM.

[50 Shades Of Blue]

57. They are aqua with a black cats/pink butterflies print on them.

[happybird]

58. Finally free of them again

I hate wearing socks. Had to put some on for a supposedly 18 min. walk to the store ... which turned into a 3 hour hoof around town because the GPS on my phone is either haunted or smoking crack. Maybe both.

They were black cotton Hanes footie socks.

Now that my feet are breathing again and I've been rehydrated (lots of hills in this town), I'm glad for the exercise. It was a little chilly, but Spring has almost arrived!

[Irishxs]

59. Decided no more symmetry in my life about 5 yrs ago,

so I only wear mismatched socks and mismatched earrings.

[ProudLib72]

63. Freshly washed socks here

Soon to be all stunk up!

[Blue Owl]

64. Smartwool

n/t

[akraven]

65. None. It warmed up a bit outside

so the floor is fairly decent and I've always preferred

[femmocrat]

66. LOL What a great topic!

I have on mis-matched fuzzy slipper socks. One has purple and white stripes, the other, black and white stripes. It’s so darn cold here, my feet are always cold

[Honeycombe8]

67. Standard White, with my blue/white athletic shoes.

I love socks and have them in TWO chest drawers, grouped by main color. I have lots of whites and blacks, of course. But also navy blue, royal blue, orange (some Halloween), multi-black&red&white (mainly Christmas), brown, purple, violet, burgundy, greens (dark, camo, lime, mint), lavender, red, pinks, and I think one pair of beige (I hate beige...they must have come in a multi-pack).

[littlemissmartypants]

68. Baby blue, fuzzy, sparkling, ankle high.

Feet feeling cozy. Thanks for asking. ♡

[rzemanfl]

69. Thanks for sharing. n/t

[lastlib]

70. Does it make sense to wear socks w/ no pants??

This IS the *NO-PANTS* Lounge, yanno.

Jus' thought I'd sock it to ya!

[rzemanfl]

71. Depends on how cold or clean the floors are. n/t

[BluesRunTheGame]

72. Costco Woolies

[Hotler]

73. Smartwool compression socks.

they make your legs feel good.

[Little Star]

75. Gold Toe Women's Ultratec Qurarter Socks.....

Been wearing these for years and still like them.

[Doreen]

77. Unmatched, as mine

obviously crawled into the third dimension for socks.

[haele]

78. My last pair of matching kitty socks.

Grey trouser socks with seated black cats with green eyes wearing pale pink bows around their necks clocked all around.
Perfect work socks to wear with black pants and a pale peach shirt.
Which reminds me, I have to go on amazon and see if I can find some more kitty socks. I think my grandkids are stealing them.
As spouse says, a single sock is the larval form of clothes hangers. Everytime we lose a sock, we gain a clothes hanger...
