I could maybe see if you have high top hiking boots to go sock>insert foot in shoe BUT LEAVE UNTIED>other sock>other shoe (tying in whatever order works).

Corollary to this, I actually complete one foot start to finish before moving on to the next. So at the halfway point I am fully wearing a new sock and shoe on one foot, while the other is still wearing my old sock and shoe
People who don't wear shoes indoors and keep their floors clean generally put their socks on in their bedroom after they got out of bed and their shoes on in the entryway when they're about to go outside.
That's what house slippers, thick socks and some good rugs are for. Even if somehow you have a special pair of shoes that you only wear inside and never outside for the obvious hygiene reasons, they are probably bad for your feet compared to walking barefoot.
That's what house slippers, thick socks and some good rugs are for.
You can accomplish the same thing with just normal socks though. Slippers-without-socks is a sweaty stinky nightmare and with socks is just a hat on a hat, thick socks have the same sweat problem unless your springing for merino wool which is expensive (especially for something as transitory and utilitarian as socks), and good rugs are really fucking expensive and only make sense in certain parts of the house.
In the winter its unthinkable not to but in the summer it's unthinkable to wear socks. Why did my ancestors choose to settle down in Ontario where the weather is one extreme or the other
I love the extremes because you never get one extreme for too long. Just when the dark cold of winter starts to seep into your soul, spring rolls around, then when the storms and rain start to get too much the hot hot summer hits, then the mornings become crisp and the leafs turn every color of the rainbow for the warm seasons' last hurrah before it dives into a winter wonderland again
I rarely take my socks off when I take off my shoes (unless they're wet). Not out of principal or anything, out of laziness. Later I might decide I don't feel like wearing socks any more and then take them off.
But I don't put socks on in the first place, unless I'm about to go put on shoes. If I'm not wearing socks and my feet are cold I'll get my slippers.
This is my Roman Empire. When I find out people live with their shoes in the house I don't want to visit them again. Your willingness to drag the outside fecal matter on the floors of your supposedly clean house is a huge red flag about you as a person for me.
I'm straddling the line between having my normal tech job and embodying the meme of the resume/linkedin that transitioned from Senior Architect at Microsoft to goose farmer.

I know this is a joke but I still do this when wearing a suit with creased pants. Let's you do up your laces and if you're tucking the shirt you need to undo the trousers anyway. Keeps them looking crisp, at least when it's an event you change into the suit right before.
Not necessarily. It would be similar to cotton long John's underneath wool pants. It just creates pockets of air. The heat comes from your foot. The extra barrier would eliminate conductive heat transfer from your foot to the wool while adding in pockets of air such transfer less heat via convective transfer. The problem would be if your foot sweats as now you're adding in a cotton layer that will absorb that moisture and reduce its insulating properties.
I put my socks on as soon as I get out of the shower, just after my underwear and undershirt. I don't put my shoes on until just before I leave my apartment.
My socks are in my bedroom and my shoes are by the door because I'm not a savage who tracks shit into my home. Am I supposed to just carry socks around while I get my shit together to go out?
You must live in a warm area, have a very well isolated house, or have heating in the floor. If I'd do they here for 70% of the year my feet will be way too cold to be comfortable
Socks+rugs and carpets make cold floor a non-issue, and it now gets to -40 for a week or so every winter here so I certainly wouldn't call it a warm place (though most summers it'll get as high as 90F at 100% humidity)
Depends on the environment. When camping, in a tent without a floor, putting on each shoe right after the sock allows parking the shoed foot on the dirt while putting on the next sock and shoe.
But putting on both socks and then putting on both shoes is the default.
Archie Bunker got very upset when he saw his son-in-law doing sock, shoe, sock, shoe. The son's closing argument was along the lines of, "What if we're both halfway done and there's a fire, so we have to run outside? The fire department is spraying water all over. Your feet get soaking wet because you're in your socks. But I have one shoe on, so I can hop and stay dry."
Had to dredge that memory up from the deep archives.
Glad this was already here. I'm not quite that old but the classics are classic for a reason. Almost one more month til Rob's been gone for 6 months and the 25th anniversary of Carroll O'Connor's death as well.
Special circumstance. Usually I'd assume putting on socks and shoes has so much temporal and spacial separation that sock, shoe, sock, shoe is impractical.
What kind of dirty weirdo does sock sock shoe shoe?? The clean socks inevitably touch the floor, dirty.
Edit: apparently it needs clarifying that you put the shoes AT THE ENTRANCE OF THE HOUSE where dirty shoes from the outside were previously removed. Y'all are crazy, where do you put shoes, on the bed!?
It's clean... It's also the place where we take off our outside shoes to put on inside slippers. It's the dirtiest place of the house, why dirty the socks when you have a very normal clear solution?
Oh boy you are telling me that you are bare feet at the entrance of the house? In the place people with shoes take them off and inevitably step on with outside gunk? Don't you have indoor slippers?
So I had read about this and at the time was equally enraged on the thought of doing sock shoe sock shoe. And then suddenly, without even noticing, one day I just started doing it. It happened maybe like 3 times before I noticed and now it's just my default because it feels better I guess? Granted, I don't do it much as I generally loathe wearing socks, but I've come to accept as something I now do.
It always did bother me a little the the inside of shoes is basically impossible to clean well. The best you can do is throw them in the washer if they're not made of leather and that still doesn't do well.
But the inside of my shoes is a lost cause :) Hell the Roomba looked at me yesterday and said "I'm Tired Boss"
I do the same, but to limit dog hair building up in my workout shoes. I'm also technically swapping from one pair of socks to another, so my workout socks never actually touch the floor.
You say that as a joke, but it’s very real. The ED staff like to mutter about never removing the boots. The floor staff mutter about having to do just that.
There are homeless people who’ve not removed their boots in a year or two. There are toes that come off with socks.
What kind of person has their shit together enough that their socks are in the same place as their shoes? I have to make sure I have 5 minutes set aside of my getting ready time to search for the socks that magically disappear when I need them.
You should fold your socks together when they come out of the dryer.
Do this: buy all new socks, all the same color and brand, so they all match each other. Then you can just take any two and fold them together. If you're missing a sock, just leave the odd one in the dryer for the next time through, eventually, you'll find the other sock, and they'll be reunited. Also, when you take your socks off, don't leave them balled up, or turned inside out, so when they come out of the dryer they're ready to fold.
This is what I taught my kids. They had their own sock color, as did I. We always knew whose sock was on the floor in the hallway.
Hey look, this person's kids are already more skilled at keeping their shit together than I am. Good job!
I completely agree with you! I have done this before but the bulk socks I bought were low quality so they wore out super quick getting holes in them. This caused me to revert back to my various branded socks... They were a brand that used to be good called Golden Toe. I used to use them when I worked in my feet all day because they were thicker and more durable. Not anymore apparently. I should do this again with better socks! Thanks for the advice.
Mine is wipe bare foot, sock, shoe, tie. Then repeat, wipe, sock, shoe, tie. I wipe my feet before work because im barefooted through my house over carpet(ew) in a house with 5 animals. And i unlace and retie my shoes everyday instead of keeping them tied forcing my foot in.

Do you wear shoes inside? That's why your floors are so dirty

I wear shoes in the place where I take them off and put them back in, it's quite literally the context of the thread? It's the entrance of the house.

Oh boy you are telling me that you are bare feet at the entrance of the house? In the place people with shoes take them off and inevitably step on with outside gunk? Don't you have indoor slippers?

No, that's why I put my socks on before I go out to put on my shoes.

So I had read about this and at the time was equally enraged on the thought of doing sock shoe sock shoe. And then suddenly, without even noticing, one day I just started doing it. It happened maybe like 3 times before I noticed and now it's just my default because it feels better I guess? Granted, I don't do it much as I generally loathe wearing socks, but I've come to accept as something I now do.

It always did bother me a little the the inside of shoes is basically impossible to clean well. The best you can do is throw them in the washer if they're not made of leather and that still doesn't do well.
But the inside of my shoes is a lost cause :) Hell the Roomba looked at me yesterday and said "I'm Tired Boss"

If the inside is leather you can wipe them out with a damp cloth

The trick is limiting the amount of dog that loses hair. This process takes time.
dvlsg@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 91d
I do the same, but to limit dog hair building up in my workout shoes. I'm also technically swapping from one pair of socks to another, so my workout socks never actually touch the floor.

Who wears socks? Flipflops for life. Kick 'em off as you get into bed, slide 'em on as you get up. Same for the shower.
Oh wait, some of you have too much weather. Do as you want, then. But do have easily-donned foot protection at bedside in case of emergency.

If something happens, it's better to have one foot ready in case there's broken glass on the floor than to have two bloody socks.
MurrayL@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 91d
Better yet, just wear boots at all times. If you never remove them, you’ll never have to worry about broken glass again! You know, just in case.
Zephorah@discuss.online · 3 pts · 91d
You say that as a joke, but it’s very real. The ED staff like to mutter about never removing the boots. The floor staff mutter about having to do just that.
There are homeless people who’ve not removed their boots in a year or two. There are toes that come off with socks.
There’s no “better yet” in this scenario.

What kind of person has their shit together enough that their socks are in the same place as their shoes? I have to make sure I have 5 minutes set aside of my getting ready time to search for the socks that magically disappear when I need them.
DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 91d
You should fold your socks together when they come out of the dryer.
Do this: buy all new socks, all the same color and brand, so they all match each other. Then you can just take any two and fold them together. If you're missing a sock, just leave the odd one in the dryer for the next time through, eventually, you'll find the other sock, and they'll be reunited. Also, when you take your socks off, don't leave them balled up, or turned inside out, so when they come out of the dryer they're ready to fold.
This is what I taught my kids. They had their own sock color, as did I. We always knew whose sock was on the floor in the hallway.
BeUnique@lemmy.zip · 4 pts · 91d
Hey look, this person's kids are already more skilled at keeping their shit together than I am. Good job!
I completely agree with you! I have done this before but the bulk socks I bought were low quality so they wore out super quick getting holes in them. This caused me to revert back to my various branded socks... They were a brand that used to be good called Golden Toe. I used to use them when I worked in my feet all day because they were thicker and more durable. Not anymore apparently. I should do this again with better socks! Thanks for the advice.

Mine is wipe bare foot, sock, shoe, tie. Then repeat, wipe, sock, shoe, tie. I wipe my feet before work because im barefooted through my house over carpet(ew) in a house with 5 animals. And i unlace and retie my shoes everyday instead of keeping them tied forcing my foot in.

I do both. By which I mean I optimise for distance. If the shoe is closer than the sock in my unsorted floordrobe, I'll go that way.
Same with trouser legs and socks. Sometimes it's leg->sock, leg-sock, sometimes sock-leg, sock-sock-leg-leg or leg-leg-sock-sock.
