As long as you put your socks on after your pants, does it matter? Socks before pants is just wrong.

I did it once, and am now waiting for an operation on my left knee. Coincidence? I dont think so

I think you can mitigate the risk by doing things in this order:

1) Left Sock
2) Pants
3) Right Sock

Crucially, you must then reverse this order when undressing.

Only by doing this way will you avert the certain destruction of mankind.

A bit like having the volume on an even number on everything, I always put my left sock on first. I also put on my left shoe first (before the right shoe I mean. Not before anything else. That would be odd).

Surely, if you're wearing L&R marked socks (like running socks), it depends which sock you turn the correct way round first. Why faff about turning out the right way round, putting it down, picking up the other one, turning that the right way round, putting it on your foot, picking up the other one and putting that on the left foot. I'd want to go back to bed after all that!

Some confusion here.

My running socks are designed for a better Left or Right fit.

My normal socks are uni-left/right. Its a not a question of has the wrong sock gone on the wrong foot but if the left foot is socked up first what evil will that unleash upon the world!?!

...I put my left sock on first?

Does anyone know, I dare not risk it.
