What makes socks men's or women's really? The size? Texture? That they are sold in the men's or women's section?
Really socks are socks are socks, no?

Agree. Same with crocs.

Many hold that the issur for women is of cross dressing, not of wearing a garment that was intended for a man.

I wear all my husbands clothing as sleepwear/lounge wear. As a matter of fact sometimes I’m like why are you wearing my sweater to him. And I get real excited when he buys new sweatpants.

Eventually he just started buying me tshirts from the men’s department at banana.

Dh would be thrilled if halacha dictated that I can't wear his socks.

Too bad: if he doesnt want me to wear his cozy, breathable cotton socks he should wear pantyhose like us poor women.

I know you can't pasken from a story, but there's a famous one of the Klausenberger Rebbe giving up his own socks to a young girl after the war, did anyone else hear it?

Not only do I wear DH's socks, I even adopted some of his pajamas as my own. Recently, I intentionally bought a sweatshirt from the men's department. Scandalous!

Yeah, currently wearing DH’s socks (his are solid, mine has crazy prints) and I regularly sleep in his undershirts... hope this isn’t an issue.

Are you trying to pass for a man by wearing them?

That's the litmus test.
