Some people change their socks every single day, to me that’s a little to much. I’m more of a 2-3days kinda guy. Is changing socks each day absolutely necessary?
Edit: Obviously something is wrong with me, I’ll take some time to rethink my life decisions and buy more socks! 😅 Edit2: I mostly wear wool socks, I hope that justifies this a bit…
Feet sweat. A lot. Like a pint (450g) of sweat a day or more if particularly active or you have larger feet.
So for me, daily at the least. On particularly active days, multiple times.
I mean, you could have easily searched “how much do feet sweat per day” and verified this yourself.
But ok, here’s one of hundreds of the results from podiatry clinics that say roughly the same thing.
Ah yes, the renowned scientific publication patient.info
Yeah, that’s half a litre of salty water soaking into your socks and shoes. I find that hard to believe
Are feet really supposed to leak that much human juice?
That’s the good stuff people like Quentin Tarantino die for! 🤤
At the most about 16-18 hours.
Please consider finding a alternative to using wool. The wool industry is so cruel.
i used to change socks every day, if i wore shoes, but since switching to only wool socks, i basically only change them once a week on laundry day unless they get muddy or something. wool socks can go a lot longer without washing than lesser fibers.
Is there something wrong with you?
I think the question is why the fuck is everyone’s feet in this thread so goddamn stinky that y’all need daily changes of socks even if it’s like a weekend day or something
Yeah, in threads like these the people who react with “ew no the human body is disgusting, why aren’t you constantly changing your clothing and dousing yourself with deoderants after your hourly showers?” Are saying more about themselves than about anyone else. As soon as I saw the title of this thread I knew there’d be a bunch of responses along those lines in here.
The world is a huge and diverse place, and the people in it are diverse as well. Some people are just stinkier than others. Some people are more sensitive to stinkiness than others. Some climates are more conducive to stinkiness. Some lifestyles are stinkier. Different socks hold smells differently. Some floors are worse than others. There’s no “right” answer to this.
Dude I already know you smell
