Why do all my socks die in batches? It's like they all just decide they've had enough at the same time, and suddenly, I have a lot of new rags.
I hate getting new socks because they're like new towels: they're all fluffy and have all this excess cottony energy. I hate wads of cotton collecting in weird places in my shoes. And it takes forever to get all the excess worn away. And then, soon after that, they die. Sad.
I wonder if the socks would last longer if I didn't just buy the cheapest socks I can find?

Yes, they would. And non-cheapo socks wouldn't fuzz everywhere in the first place, either.
ReplyDeleteIt's like Vimes and the Ramkins' shopping strategies.
Heheh. And I don't have Vimes' excuse about needing to feel the cobblestones because of being a cop . . . :) Do you have any brand recommendations for white 100% cotton socks that aren't yucky?
ReplyDeleteI usually get the Sonoma brand socks at Kohl's. They're thin-ish cotton, don't know if it's 100%.
ReplyDeleteI need 100% cotton. Alas. The search continues. :)
