Chuck Nessa Posted May 4, 2016 Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 Change 'em? Why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gould Posted May 4, 2016 Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 I guess I am in between Chuck and Paul. Living the casual, work-at-home country life, if I only wear socks while working out and afterwards walk around sockless in my docksiders, then I'll probably wear those same socks the next day when I work out. But if I am wearing socks the whole day the surely go in the hamper in the evening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeweil Posted May 5, 2016 Report Share Posted May 5, 2016 It depends on how your feet sweat and smell. If my socks smell, I change, at least every other day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
