Do you have a sock kink? You’re not alone.
What Is a Sock Fetish?
A sock fetish is the sexual arousal and fascination in wearing or removing socks.
Sock kinks may be dependent on the kind of sock, how the sock is worn, the touching or smelling of socks, or something only a sock fetishist could conjure up. We know kinksters have great imaginations!
A sock fetish may be specifically connected to a foot fetish, and the arousal is from the specific admired feet that are wearing the socks.
Sock fetishists include both men and women, but they are more typically men (similar to foot fetishists).

Seeing a woman’s white socks brown on the bottom from walking around on dirty floors might send you over the edge, or it may be your man’s balled-up dirty socks that he leaves on the living room floor every night. It might be the crusty way dirty socks feel after a day in the hamper.
