How old is too old for a person to walk around in public just wearing socks?

Question

I started wearing socks outside when I was about 8 years old. I am now 52 and I now go out in my socks more frequently than I do wearing shoes.

I go to everywhere including malls, home improvement centers, restaurants (not just fast-food but nice restaurants) the cinema, riding my bike around town and now I've even gone to a few doctor appointments in my socks. It's not like I  can hide my feet since I'm always wearing a shirt, shorts and white socks. I think it keeps me feeling young especially since your age really is just a number.

So what do you think, am I too old? I don't think so. What do you think vette7884?

you'd feel much more comfortable in some super soft slippers and socks but no I go to the corner store with socks and I'm 15

for fully clothed and socks with no shoes - there is no age limit

for nudity and only socks - In the States of Arkansas ans Oklahoma the maximum age is 10 years
I am not sure about other States

Yeah I agree with the posts about at least wearing slippers or sandals.  Doing that allows you to get around faster without steppign on something undesirable.

I think that sounds charming.  I know if I saw a middle aged man out and about in socks and no shoes, I'd say "Hey, that guy really has it together."

age isn't the issue.
protecting your feet from sharp objects is.
if you need to keep your feet dry, then do what i do: wear socks with sandals.
