So I realize a lot of people change their socks quite often. I wear the same pair for like a week before I start wearing a different pair. Except my gym socks, I change those each workout. Is this normal? How often do you all change your socks?
As a teen, I used to change them every few days, but then my sister told me about her days in the army and told me about this guy who got a fungal infection after wearing the same pair every day. It scared me enough to change them daily.
When I come back inside and take my shoes off, I take my socks off too and usually don't need to go out until the next day. So almost every time I put my shoes on.
I'm not a pancy princess and don't have the bother to change them every day - it doesn't kill.
I change my socks everyday if I can. I can't imagine wearing the same socks for a week.
I go through at least 2 pairs a day during the week because I'm required to wear sneakers to work. I don't wear socks often on the weekend since its summer and socks just don't look right with heels and sandals. Gyms another thing, but I never wear socks that have already been worn.
It really depends, for example, i have a horrible sweating problem when im stressed so i'll have to change them whenever they start to feel icky. Otherwise i could wear them for a few days and it wouldn't matter, especially in colder climates/seasons. I live in the tropics so I'll have to change them everyday due to the heat (especially in summer).
