How to Properly on Dress Socks
Putting on socks should be pretty straight forward. Slide it over your foot and walla. However, even I have troube with socks that have a heel. So I made this to illustrate how I put on socks and manage to have a perfect fit every time considering that socks are made to fit a size range and the heel can either end up on the ankel or the back of the foot instead of on the heel. Stretching out dress socks is never a good idea since you are likely to rip holes in them with that kind of abuse. So I will attempt to instruct.
A Good One.
Behold a good sock. Let us attempt to keep it that way.
Insert Hand
1) Put your hand in the sock and pinch the center of the heel.
Inside Out
2) Pull the heel out so the sock is half way inside out.
Open
3) Open it by gently stretching it sideways so the heel is evenly at the bottom.
Insert Foot
4) Slide your foot in making sure that your heel rests evenly on the heel of the sock.
Pull Up
5) Pull the end of the sock up your shin.
TaDa. Perfect job on the first try.
