Putting away some recently washed socks, I notice the older ones appear to have to some extent adopted the shape of a right or left foot.  :hmm:

And don't fit so well, if they're not on the correct foot, based on the handedness they've developed.

Have you noticed this ? 



:D

This thread is fairly weak. The question has an obvious answer and the subject matter attracts Mart while general interest remains low.

I think a lot of socks are made with a left-right bias from the start.

If you're eating mongers' socks you deserve what you get.

You should check out the history of socks :P Most are made with a "handedness".
