Because it is closed toe design I CANNOT wear it the next day because it is of course smelly. It is convenient to wear it out the door in disguise as a plain black socks but what if you need it the next day for work? Spending another $13-$15 bucks for everyday of the week and week after week does not save money. They are not the ordinary socks but they are still socks! After buying this I have gone back to the open toe version of these compression socks. I wear these under normal socks and that is sensible to me because I can wear it multiple times before it is dirty enough to wash it.
