Not trying to be gross here but based on comments some people are going to find me gross. Anyways if I'm wearing socks with shoes then they're done after the day, or the hour If I made a quick grocery trip and came home or something. But I'll wear my warm fuzzy house socks for several days. Idc because my feet aren't sweating like that without shoes so I see those socks as still being usable.

Once a day and once every two days if I didn't use them much.
Once they get so crusty they can stand on their own. That's about 8 hours in shoes, or a week next to the bed.
This prompted me to buy socks cos apparently I'm an animal.
I’m on that Mr Rogers rotation: Twice a day. I work out daily which always includes cardio so changing socks is a must lol.
Office work 2-3 days.
I wear sandals year round. No socks. I have a drawer full of really nice socks that I no longer have any use for.
I used to laugh when I saw kids with Crocs.
A few years ago, as a gag, I got Crocs.
I now wear Crocs and I'm considering buying indoor Crocs and outdoor Crocs.
Crocs.
I'll only wear a pair again if I happen to run out somehow. Then I usually get more socks to make sure it doesn't happen again any time soon.
LPT for people who commented that their feet sweat a lot: Apply foot powder before putting on socks. You’ll feel fresher longer, won’t sweat as much, and your feet won’t stink when you take off your shoes at the end of the day.
I exercise regularly so I’m changing socks like twice a day.
24 hrs since I put them on for sleep and keep them on for the next day
NaN. I live in the tropics, socks aren't really a thing.
If I have to wear silly formal shoes for a function or whatever, I wear them maybe two hours.
depends on usage. If the day involves a gym visit or hike or something then more than once a day. Over a weekend where im mostly in the house barefoot and just put on shoes and socks to walk the dog, I might not change them at all for that weekend.
Hours, max 12
And yes I take two showers a day. Got to keep all the bits clean.
7 pairs, 7 days. Costco Caterpillar socks.
Plese reply me with picture of Kryten washing Listers socks with hammer.
8hrs, but that could be a day or it could be a week.
I’ll change my socks every day, and more if I’m swapping out workout clothes for fresh clothes.
Oddly, I really don’t experience foot odor. Other bits can get rather ripe, but whether I’m wearing boots or going barefoot, my feet just do t get funky. That said, I have had athlete’s foot and I’ve seen what happens when someone doesn’t change their socks after days of marching and working in the field. I know it’s not a major danger for me at this point, but I’ve got a whole drawer full of socks, and in any case I want them to match with my shoes and pants.
I also change every 2 to 3 days, which is also the interval at which I shower and change clothes in general. So basically "Take off old cloth - shower - put on new clothes".
If they've been off after a day I don't see how you can put used socks back on.
I will wear underwear or socks more than 24h if i shower halfway into a day or if I am being sick/a slob and just not taking any clothes off.
