Yes, put that nice fresh sock straight into that shoe decreasing the risk of picking up a dust bunny or small rock by outing your fresh sock on the floor.
how many times have you urgently needed to execute a task *in the middle of putting on your shoes* and have had to run about with one shoed foot, and one bare, because YOU were unprepared?!

I have never even considered sock, shoe, sock, shoe. My floors are too cold to walk around the house sockless. My shoes are too muddy to come in the house.
How smooth are you with pants putting on. One leg at a time, of course, but I like to do it in a fluid motion because of that saying
Interestingly enough, I started this question at a party one time and one of my friends said that she lays down and does both legs at the same time, every day. Couldn’t believe it.
I usually do pants low, get a foot in, slide up a tad, next foot in, pull em up. Laying down might be a thing girls do, from back when they used to wear skinny jeans and had to pry them on?
I couldn’t imagine cracking my toes, fingers or back. That weirds me out. I’ve never been a popper, but come as you are.
Sock sock shoe shoe, much more efficient Once you put on the first sock, muscle memory makes the second foot more efficient
Ahh, efficiency! Do you alternate which foot is first each day? With muscle memory kicking in, I’d be concerned of the second foot becoming lazy leading to a tendency to walk in circles. Walking in circles would decrease efficiency.
My routine depends solely on time efficiency requirements. Slow mornings: sock, sock, shoe, shoe Rushed mornings: sock, shoe, sock, shoe. 🤷🏻‍♀️
Whoa! So you feel that sock,shoe, sock, shoe is quicker but if you have plenty of time, you prefer sock, sock, shoe, shoe? Is this to eat up some time or you find more enjoyment?
lol! I’ve never really thought about it until today 😂 Maybe sock sock shoe shoe is my natural preference but time constraints shoe horn (🤭) me into the efficient mode.
This hurts my brain. If you walk in half of a circle, spin 180 degrees then walk another half circle, you would go nowhere right? Wait a minute, that can’t be right. This would create an endless circle in one spot. Now you’re screwing with me huh?
Or maybe you’re punishing yourself for running late by not allowing yourself to put your shoes and socks on in the most enjoyable way.
It’s usually pre second coffee so not a lot of thought process involved. No punishment. Just default efficiency mode I think. More time to think maybe more time to enjoy. Never really thought about it 🤷🏻‍♀️
They obviously do, nobody wants to bend over in tight pants, or roll them up just to roll them back over the sock. Especially female pants like leggins are maddening, high sock has to go first.
