Of course there is! You don't wear out the toes so you don't need to buy socks half as often

my OH has a fixation with socks, he has a drawer full of new ones. Sometimes he likes to look at them now and then yet still wears the ones with the holes in

When I was a kid, the only people that did that were youth leaders affiliated with religious groups.

Then I went to America and discovered that even the coolest of blokes wore them up to their calves with their Birkenstocks!

I'm like that. My wife buys me new socks, underwear, working shirts, etc; but I don't use them. I prefer to wear out the old ones first.
