OK, well—here's a confession. Lately I have been skipping socks when I go running or hit the gym. I don't know—I think my feet just feel too hot with socks during these sweaty months. But the joke may be on me, because "sans socks" just also might equal "super gross." According to Topical BioMedics, forgoing your socks during a workout can create an environment within your shoes that's especially friendly to bacteria. Moist, warmcheck and check; bacteria (and, potentially, even fungi) see those as welcome mats. These bacteria are also a big part of the reason your sneaks turn from stinky to stanky. Luckily, there are tons of sock options out there (even for non-sock wearers!), including antimicrobial socks and super-lightweight socks. Both of which I shall be checking into, post-haste! Do you skip socks for workouts?
