Wearing socks in bed...

Because it's absolutely freezing I've started to wear socks when going to sleep, something I don't usually do. I'd find it annoying to wear normal socks and especially those bed sock things as they're too thick and it feels awkward, but trainer socks are really comfortable.

I was thinking though, isn't this a bit unhygienic as your walking around the house in them all day and then wearing them in bed? Then again walking around barefoot and then going into bed is exactly the same, it's just your feet don't pick up the same things socks do.
It's more unhygienic that your socks absorb sweat from your feet as opposed to what they pick up from the floor. Why don't you just try putting on a fresh pair before bed? Personally I hate socks in bed..feels weird D:
