I just wear whatever's in the drawer whether thermal, boot, ankle or whatever, unless I'm actually wearing a pair of boots or proper shoes. They're all black or gray and you know me, cheap :lol:

You? Anything fancy?

I tend to buy mine all at the same time and all the same colour etc...

That way I rarely have an odd pair.

I have some technical socks for running in and a nice pair of Paul Smith socks too.

This works for me.

Paul Smith, nothing else comes close. I just wish I was rather better at darning.

My sock draw is a complete mishmash of different styles and colours. And I never pair my socks. If I grab the nearest two and they happen to match, the ducky for those that care.

Black, replaced every few weeks with new ones.

Every sock in the drawer matches.

Wouldn't you be better just cutting your toenails every so often? :lol: ;)

Black socks go grey too easily, they're cheap enough to replace every few weeks

I have some dark socks for dark trousers and some light socks for light ones. Nothing worse than getting those the wrong way round. It's a sign you're a barbarian :). I also have several pairs for when hiking & etc, a layer with wicking properties then a nice fleecy layer for warmth.

Can't say I've ever noticed that happening with mine, though some of them descend into fluff at the earliest opportunity :lol:

The more colourful the better.
I think at the moment I have enough pairs of socks to last me about two months wearing a different pair a day before I would need to wash any of them.
