Comments on: Matching socks? http://yukonjen.com/matching-socks/ My life since 2005 Sat, 04 Feb 2012 10:15:25 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: cam http://yukonjen.com/matching-socks/comment-page-1/#comment-442 cam Sat, 26 Dec 2009 14:23:13 +0000 http://yukonjen.com/?p=1857#comment-442 I never really gave much thought to this concept, but I do the same thing. I just cram all my white, everyday sport socks (from big dept. store packs) into one part of the drawer and draw from them at random. The writing on the toe or even the toe/heel colours don't always match. A form of rebellion? I like to think so, because if you read on, you'll see that I really need to get out more. On the other hand, with my dress socks, I do organize them in pairs, mainly so they are neat and will stay in good condition longer. Same goes for my running socks - they are paired up, but in this case, for an even better reason. These babies cost a friggin' fortune - about $15 a pair at running stores only - but they will last for years if properly cared for. Since I have run sox of various "ages", I try to pair them up with like-aged companions. This doesn't always work perfectly, but it's my perfectionist side taking over here. I'll bet there are runners who couldn't give a damn about such things. Too much time on my hands..... I never really gave much thought to this concept, but I do the same thing.
