  Added benefit of socks is being able to do a ‘turn on your heel’ little spin 180 move.

  It’s fun and satisfying, for me at least.

  We have tiled floors and a sock lets you rotate easily on one heel, when you want to turn around. I never gave the saying any thought before this(“to turn on ones heel”).

  My feet are kept warm by keeping my house at a temperature where I am comfortable.

    So… burning energy rather then improving local insulation.

  Doesn’t that destroy your socks prematurely?

    Doesn’t wearing your shoes constantly destroy your shoes prematurely?

      They’re a helluva lot more durable than my socks.

        Not sure who’s down voting you, but socks are meant to be in shoes and shoes are meant to be in contact with the ground. Shoes have rubber soles, socks are cloth. One of these things is much more durable than the other.

        I have 90% hardwood floors and my socks get destroyed if I don’t wear slippers of some sort.

        Are you wearing shoes without socks?
