Some people change their socks every single day, to me that's a little to much. I'm more of a 2-3days kinda guy. Is changing socks each day absolutely necessary?

Edit: Obviously something is wrong with me, I'll take some time to rethink my life decisions and buy more socks! 😅 Edit2: I mostly wear wool socks, I hope that justifies this a bit..

Sorry, I wasn't saying that wool socks aren't better than synthetic - they definitely are. But IMO wool socks should still be washed daily 'cos they are still absorbing sweat. "wicking" keeps you dry, sure, it doesn't make the sweat disappear
