I suppose you could sew a L and an R into each one to distinguish left from right, or even just an X on one of them so you could tell them apart, then you'd know which one to swap to the other foot, but ain't nobody got time for that.
Mine even themselves out by fluffing up in the washer/dryer. Are you wearing them a second time before washing them? Or maybe if you hang them dry they don't get fluffed?
Kind of. I don't specifically pay attention to or know which sock is which. I just have a drawer full of all the same sock. So I just pick a random two and throw them on my feet without paying attention.

They're stretched into the shape of that foot.

But you'd have to repeatedly wear a sock on a specific foot for it to stretch in a foot specific manner in the first place.

Left foot gets white socks, right foot gets black socks, alternate every day, fuzzy Christmas socks on Sundays.

Most of my socks came in boxes of beer around Christmas :)

I really only wear them when I'm wearing shoes, so I take them off as soon as I get home. If I have to go out again, I put them back on.

I just put them on randomly, no idea which foot they were on before.

No lol, wtf?
I just put them on. As long as they're heel side down.

I'm not sure I know the difference between left and right socks.
dcoe@lemmy.world · 21 pts · 2y
I wear them on both feet.

I alternate which foot to step on when I walk.

So you hop around on one foot only?
marshadow@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y
Only once they start to wear out under the big toe, otherwise I can't tell the difference.
wahming@monyet.cc · 2 pts · 2y
Yeah, today I wear a sock on my left foot, tomorrow it's my right foot.

Do you have a limp?
Nemo@midwest.social · 1 pts · 2y
No, but I'm duck-footed. Most they wear out around the big toe.
FooBarrington@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y
Wait, do you have one whole duck per foot? Or half?

I mean if my knees are pointed straight ahead, by feet angle outward at about a 20° angle. It affects my gait.

For once I think OP is alone on this one
