A very important poll

[Cataholic]

I don't wear shoes in the house, soooooo, socks are on LONG before shoes. I nearly almost always wear socks- summer, winter, etc. I just like the feel of socks on my feet.

When I am dressing Jones and we are going out right away, I do put on sock, shoe, sock, shoe. Otherwise? He will pull off the other one to irritate me. He he he...little pistol that he is.

What a funny thread!!

I tried the right foot first as an experiment and it just does not feel right!! It MUST be left sock, left shoe, right sock, right shoe.

I have sciatica in my right hip so it hurts to bring that foot up. I am guessing that is why I do the easy side first. It seems that most put on the right first - like Lizzie I am wondering if it relates to our handedness

[borzoimom]

Sock, Sock, Shoe, Shoe. I think I usually go left to right

Me too- my left leg is the one with the plate, and always cold.. But I actually do not wear shoes around the house.. lol. But if I did put on shoes- its always the left foot again first..

[Anita Cholaine]

Sock, sock, shoe shoe. I don't think I go with a certain foot first, maybe I do, but I haven't really noticed it

[pitc9]

I'm sock, sock, (then finish getting ready for work) then shoe, shoe.
Doesn't matter right or left first.
.. humm.. at least I don't THINK it matters right or left first... I'll have to make a mental note tomorrow morning!

[mruffruff]

Sock, sock, shoe, shoe, either one first. Pants after socks but before shoes. Pantlegs don't always scootch up my leg far enough to put socks (or knee-highs) as high as they should be. Now, for bedtime, the socks go on after PJ pants and over the legs so they don't slide apart and leave a cold strip lol

I always put my socks on first- I usually wear socks all day (except in warm weather) but I only wear shoes outside. I don't think I have an order for putting my shoes on- but I think I prefer my left first...

[Argranade]

I chose Other --

I usualy forget to wear socks .. once I even forgot to wear my shoes lol,

When I do put socks and shoes on it's always socks then shoes.

[GreyhoundGirl]

LAMO!!! Of all the PT polls... haha

Port sock

starboard sock

come down stairs

port shoe

Starboard shoe.

lol- not on purpose though, it is just harder to tye your laces with your non dominant hand, so I do it first. Also my shoes are downstairs so I can't go sock-shoe-sock-shoe without hopping one-legged downstairs and up stairs a few times. lol

[dogzr#1]

Sock, Sock, shoe shoe. Don't notice which one I do first. I'm not too picky about it though.

I thought about this thread all day as I was working and it made me laugh.

Here is my answer..................what are socks?

[Randi]

Now Gini, you have got me looking for socks again! I really do need new socks. A few years ago, I bought some really good ones in London, called Burlington, they were SO comfy!! The ones with mostly Cotton and Elastane, I find the best. I hate too much Polyamide or Nylon in them.

These below are quite similar I think, only I prefer them black. Think I’m gonna order some, now that I found this site.

Note! 98% Cotton 2% Elastane

As for putting socks and shoes on, I go sock, sock, shoe, shoe - right first. I can’t believe anyone putting shoes on before pants!

Also, when it comes to jacket or coat, right sleeve first, please!

[Pawsitive Thinking]

Made a special note to check this morning!

Right sock, left sock, right shoe, left shoe

[Felicia's Mom]

Left sock, right sock, left shoe right shoe.

[Lizzie]

As for putting socks and shoes on, I go sock, sock, shoe, shoe - right first. I can’t believe anyone putting shoes on before pants!

Also, when it comes to jacket or coat, right sleeve first, please!

Now, I'm confused about why I do things the way I do them. What mental quirk is going on in my brain? I feel most comfortable putting a sock on my left foot first, and I put my left boot/shoe/slipper on first, but I put my right arm into the sleeve of my coat first.

As for wearing only socks in the house and no shoes, I only wear shoes outside but I do wear slippers inside. Stepping on feline pine or hairballs or wet tea bags that the kittens have pulled out of the sink and left on the floor is far too uncomfortable for me to be socks-only except on the sofa or in bed.

Edited to add: Now, Gini, surely you hunted out some socks during your recent cold snap?
