Fall, winter, spring start with socks on and after a few minutes, push them down so only my arch and toes are covered by the socks - my ankle and heel are uncovered.
Summer - no socks.

In summer, no, in winter, always.

I'm always cold but my DH and kids are always hot, so we have to keep the house cool. That means I layer up. I wear pj pants to bed year round, with a t shirt in summer and with a long sleeved shirt and fleece pullover in winter!

Ditto - though not always do I wear to bed - cooler weather thing (cold wood floors)

That’s really sweet. I’m sorry for your loss.

Winter, socks - my feet are always freezing! Summer, sockless

I’m a sock person 16 hours of the day- summer or winter, I hate bare feet- but I just can’t wear them when I’m sleeping.
Not to hijack the thread but I really enjoyed sleeping naked long ago but I kept having dreams about being naked in public/ not having a shirt on while giving a presentation so I had to go back to wearing pajamas!

Wow you’re lucky. My husband thinks if I wear anything to bed our marriage is dead. I have to be naked.

On but sometimes I take them off at night.

On, but sometimes I take them off in the middle of the night. Then I inevitably want them back on in the morning.

Off. DH doubles as a foot warmer

Try showering

Off.

I am not worried about foot germs, but I do tend to have cold toes even when the rest of me is comfortable, and other things being equal I prefer to sleep in a cooler room. I have a couple pair of very loose soft wool socks specifically for sleeping in when it's cold. They're not confining at all.
