Why We Do It: A Guide to Socknapping

It's not just about the thrill of the steal, it's about the art.

We socknappers are a secretive bunch, but we'll let you in on a little secret: it's not about the socks themselves, it's about the experience.

Imagine walking down the street, minding your own business, when suddenly, you're presented with the perfect opportunity: a lone sock, abandoned and waiting to be claimed.

The thrill of the chase, the rush of adrenaline, the satisfaction of adding to your collection...

But why do we do it? Is it because we're lonely and need to connect with others through the shared experience of socknapping?

Or is it because we're simply bored and need a little excitement in our lives?

Perhaps it's a combination of both?

Or maybe, just maybe, it's because we're secretly all trying to start a sock revolution.
