finding socks is a challenge in its own right. make sure to find socks you like, maybe you prefer socks that have many small designs or one big design. some people prefer blank socks usually in a solid color or just black and white.

the important thing is to find socks that you would want to wear.

most importantly try to find socks that don't have holes in them, that is an early sign that the socks will not last and may be uncomfortable to wear for long amounts of time

One of the most important parts of finding good socks to having comfortable socks. The key factor to a comfortable sock is elasticity. you want a sock that will fit your foot well but also not be hard to put on or take off, the best method to finding a good sock is to make sure its stretchy.

not every sock fits every occasion and i wouldn't recommend wearing angry birds star wars socks to a job interview, or wear short socks and high tops. but as long as you understand basic social interactions and the attire that should be worn then the socks should follow suit.

i (someone who wears socks) prefer my socks to be thin and stretchy but not too thin as to break easily, my socks are of a standard length and reach just above my ankles keeping all of the foot that is not covered by my pants to be warm. but many prefer small socks that only protect your feet from the shoes or long socks that reach to your shins. whichever you prefer.

sock thickness is also a factor, i feel that thick socks feel like wearing two pairs of shoes. and thin socks break easily.

much like your life's purpose, sock preference is decided by you alone. whether you prefer small socks or long, thin or thick it is up to you what socks you like.
