Depends on my mood. I'm a moody person.

    Sock/sock, then shoe/shoe, because the shoes are in a different room. Walking around in shoes indoors is a big nono.

    Sock, sock, show, shoe.

    Sometimes you grab two socks and then one of the socks is wrong. I'm not walking around in one shoe to fix my sock problem.

    Sock/sock, then shoe/shoe. If you had to RUN FOR YOUR LIFE in the middle of putting on shoes, would you rather have one shoe on or two socks on?

    Socks are for fops. Barefoot or sandals. I put them on one at a time.

    Socks first then shoes. My brain prefers to take care of similar tasks when repetition of several steps is involved.

    Shoes belong in the entryway. Socks in the bedroom. Socks will always be put on before shoes.

    There are a couple of niche situations where one might put socks and shoes on at the same time/place, but the norm of socks first then travelling to the shoes dictates that socks first, shoes after.

    The one exception is when for example, changing in a public space, or outside, where you don't want to get your sock dirty, so you put sock then shoe and then sock then shoe

    Sock, sock shoe, shoe.

    Usually because I put my socks on in the bedroom, but my shoes are by the back door: i don't put them on unless I am going outside.

    here is the thing. I think the meatheads argument is better but I still prefer to do it like archie.

    Sock/sock shoe/shoe. Because having one foot warmer than the other while I'm tying my laces is unreasonably annoying.

    socks. I walk around in socks before I go up and put on shoes.

    then the other sock and shoe

    one foot at a time

    Socks then shoes.

    In the winter I often switch from regular socks used with shoes on cleared sidewalks to warmer socks and boots when working in snowy spots. Even then I switch both socks out before putting on either boot. Mismatched socks feel so wrong.

    Shoe/shoe.

    Sock/sock and then shoe/shoe, BECAUSE the shoes may not be in the same room as the socks.

    How do you like them apples?

    My shoes stay at the door and never used in the house.

    So sock sock first then shoe shoe.

    Maybe it's cultural but I don't understand why would anyone wear shoes at home.

    Circumstance.

    If you're constantly going in/out, it's a waste of time.

    And honestly it doesn't make any difference for me - my carpets get just as dirty just as fast whether I take shoes off or not.

    I still take them off, but since I clean the carpets I know exactly how little difference it makes. It's a "feel good" exercise in my house.

    Waste of time and cleanliness don't get align though. It must be cultural then. I just cannot even think about how it would be so dirty wearing shoes in the house. In Eastern culture, the home should be clean and not a place you would enter with your shoes on.

    Socks, then shoes. My socks are stored in my bedroom, and my shoes near the entryway of my home. I'm not one of those filthy casuals who wears their shoes inside.

    Sock shoe, sock shoe, because I have a golden retriever and don't want her fur on my socks.

    Normal shoes I'll do sock/sock shoe/shoe. For lace up calf length boots I'll do sock/boot sock/boot because it's a whole process and if I don't adjust the sock just right it gets super bunched or overly tight on the toesies.

    So, really, it depends on the context.

    I'm rarely in the position where I put my shoes on at the same time as my socks. Socks go on when I get dressed, shoes go on when I go out, unless maybe I'm camping in a small tent getting dressed rarely coincides with when I go out. I assume this is the case for most people.

    A changing bench I designed and am currently finishing. Current shoes go on the surface next to the pad. Additional shoes for winter, dress shoes, etc. go below. Slide-out hamper in the middle.

    I put on one sock and if I'm putting on my shoes at the same time, I then put on a shoe, because my leg is up on my knee so why switch back and forth? The shoe is right there next to me, so I put it on. Also, apparently I'm a "savage" for choosing to wear shoes in my own house. So be it. RAWR!

    My shoes aren't usually next to my bed in the morning.

    This was on an episode of Archie Bunker.

    Socks first. Some days I don't go outside at all but am wearing socks around the house.

  • Sock sock then shoe shoe, because it's way easier and convenient for me this way.

    If I’m going to work, sock/sock, shoe/shoe for what I would hope are obvious logistical reasons.

    If I’m off, neither. I don’t actually care for footwear and if I have to venture out I have sandals and I don’t mind rawdogging the porch or lawn.

    If I’m drunk it’s a free for all. Shoe/shoe, or Shoe/sock, or just sock, not necessarily where said sock is designed to go.
