I solved it by just having all identical socks. No issue at all that way.
I had an issue with almost identical shoes . Years ago we went to Bath shopping . Everything was going fine until I tried a pair of shoes in a shop . As I leant over to remove them I discovered that they weren't a pair ! :ohmy: Same colour , both slip ons but different shoes slightly different style ! :ohmy:. We had to laugh ! :laugh:. It was a bit embarrassing !

We were in Leamington Spa a few years ago and one of the shoe shops were having a sale, they had both single shoes and odd shoes for sale as well as normal pairs of shoes.

Not as bad as the woman in Helensburgh who was going for an important job interview. Went to Glasgow by train and when she got off realised she was still wearing bedroom slippers.:blush:

My cycling socks are marked L and R So that’s how I lay them in the sock draw:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

I have some captain's socks, red & green, for port & starboard.

Actually, after walking the dog first thing and a second walk just now, I my have need of the captain's socks to navigate down the garden. Next door has a new pond, as does the field at the back.

Similar to the odd shoe story but true.
Guy in a dry suit for diving was at the counter of our local chandlery shop and when the owner appeared asked if she had any single fins for sale.
Sarcastic response was “ only got one leg then?”
“Er yes. “
She never lived that down and got ribbed mercilessly.
The guy hopped about on one leg ok at least for short distances.
