Every ten years or so I get rid of all my socks and boxers, then buy new ones. All the same brand and at most two types. I never have to worry about finding a pair that match each other or anything like that.
I’m sorry Sir Kevin did you say ten years? How many do you have that they don’t wear out well before then? This is alarming and/or amazing. We do this too but it’s more like every year or maaaaaybe two if we are stretching it. I’m stuck on ten years, it’s wild, I’m sorry.
Like 30+ pairs. I don't like doing laundry often so I buy in bulk. That has the side effect that no one pair is worn too much. Maybe it's less than ten years, I'm not exactly counting or anything. When things start wearing out or looking funky I buy new.
