Why do socks hurt?

<p>^^how about no underwear at all ;)</p>

<p>Such an informed crowd, maybe you will be able to solve my problem.
DH makes holes in his socks with a speed of light. Sometimes after only one wear!
We have tried many different socks over the years - cheap or expensive, loose or tight, he will eventually make a hole in them, usually sooner than later. The hole is always where his big toe is. Does not matter what kind of shoes he wears.
I am getting a little annoyed, especially since my socks usually fall apart before I make a hole in them. My kid’s socks get holes in the ares of increased friction, but what my DH does with his is a mystery to me. He cuts and even files his toenails weekly! I am joking that he probably wiggles his big toe all the time :slight_smile:
What is his problem?</p>
