Socks - ah, socks. MOST people wonder why my everyday carry bag had a nice pair of boot socks in there. Then you have the folks who have hiked/spent all day on their feet - THEY smile when they see it. I can't tell you the number of times I've gotten stuck in the office/on a call out over night, and you change your undies, your socks, wash your face, brush your teeth - your good to go for another few hours.

Another trick - I'm sitting at my desk, and I'm NOT likely to have to get up for the next 2-3 hours, except to walk 1-2 steps to my file cabinet - guess what? The shoes (boots) are OFF - let my feet air out
