Or you could buy the socks on ebay from Socklab that snap together on the sides for washing and drying. They're the coolest socks ever. You yank them apart when you are ready to wear. -

This is a great idea except for the tip at the end. I don't think my son would appreciate wearing only blue socks, me green, my daughter pink, etc. Most boys wear white and I have 2 of those so what then? I'd just remove the tip and let the article stand
