Michelle Drerup, the director of the Sleep Disorders Center at Cleveland Clinic, explained that even though a cool room is ideal for sleep, it’s important to keep your feet toasty. “It sounds counterintuitive, I know, but by wearing socks to bed and warming your feet, you may actually lower your core body temperature and fall asleep faster,” Drerup told CNN

Interesting… meanwhile I sleep with feet sticking out.
It’s too hot when you sleep with socks on.
No, it isn’t.
Yes it is.
Oh.
Well, not my experience.
Apologies.
I did not realize you may have had a different experience than I have had.
I’m sleeping with socks on for about 10 years now
I started out because my (back then) cat liked to play with my toes using his claws which was painful and disturbing. So i decided to start wearing thick socks to not feel anything like this anymore during sleep time and it worked (tho the cat still played with my toes).
Now i don’t have a cat for several years, but i’m still wearing socks to sleep (not because of the benefit mentioned, but because i’m so used to it)
EDIT: just now i noticed 2 typos
