Where do your socks always wear out?

i just threw away like my third pair this morning.

Every single time it’s the same spot. Right at my big toe.

My toenails aren’t even long, so I don’t know what the hell my toe is doing in there.

Doesn’t matter what brand either. Apparently that one toe just wants freedom

Mine are at the heel. Ill throw one sock away and keep the other one. When the heel on some other pair goes i then just match up the two good socks. In the end Ive only thrown away one pair rather than two.
@PHlover19701 I do that too 😌 Buying all the same color makes it easier to pair up after washing, incredibly easy to choose which to wear, and saves half the waste. Win-win-win!

@NerdyPotato Exactly...great minds think alike.

The same thing here! My toe nails get long sometimes, but I try to stay on top of that!

Heel with mine
I don't usually keep them long enough for them to wear out..I like fresh comfy pair so I usually get a new pack every month

Usually the heels go first on mine.

Heal or the elastic on the ankle...

Heels usually. Probably from the running.

heels and toes
Most of them between my big toe and the toe next to it as well, and the few others at the heel.

Almost always the heel

@TrunkZ In 7th grade we swapped off for a week with other elective classes. My mechanical drawing class did home econ. We learned to darn socks. I have used that skill for decades...

@Neoerectus We had something similar. They taught us how to make these, which I have never made again...

@Neoerectus i used to mend my socks. But to me they felt different and i didn't like that

Could it be due to the shoes you're wearing?
@Sapio i never thought of that.

Between the big and the second toe...short nails, still wear/tear holes. I'm not sure why. Maybe they are strained there by the toes flexing?
