What are you wearing?
2 comments

I am wearing a red "foo camp" tee shirt from 2007, jeans possibly from j-crew, and white gym socks I bought at walmart.

a year or two ago I threw out all my mismatched pairs of socks and bought all identical white socks. now I do not have to match and fold the socks when washing them. I just pile them into the drawer.

I do the same thing, except I bought lots of socks of different colors from the same range. Best feeling ever - not having to pair socks. (and being told you're wearing odd socks like some kind of mad man)

Want to be friends?

I've had the same thought about socks. I've pondered starting a business around the idea -- pay $100 and we'd send you a few samples of different sock brands. Then choose the one you want most and we'll send you 30 pairs -- all you'll need!

Feedback?

($100 is a ton of money for socks, most people don't care enough to care about socks.)
(think market skimming, not market penetration).
ARE YOU MY FRIEND? [Y/n]
++ on the j-crew.
