Pro tip: If you buy tons of the same type of socks such as 20 pairs of black you can wash and dry them and they pair easily. It's less effort than going to buy new ones.

    This is exactly what I do. I have like 30 identical pairs of socks. They just get dumped in a pile in my sock drawer, and I grab two off the top of the pile every day.

    I do this, except for the part where they're all identical.

  • I dated a girl who did this. I asked why her socks were always mismatched. She looked at me like it should be obvious, and said “I pull two out of the drawer. If they match, I know I’m going to have a good day.” I said she could just match her socks, and then she’d have a good day every day. But apparently that was missing the point.

    Gosh I've been trying to force myself to do that for like 5 years already. I'm just too lazy to spend some time and choose a good fit (instead of just buying random socks every once in a while). What brand and type of socks would you recommend??

    Buy one pack of 5, if good go back and buy 3+ more packs leaving some unopened and throw out old if not find better. Look at what sock you like currently and try finding similar. I like thin/semi thin. I don't do brands, just feel with the hands.
