Can also be helpful wearing 2 pairs of thinner socks to avoid friction/ blisters...so the movement is between the two pairs (same principle as blister socks that have two layers together).
Ur reasoning is sound... however lighter colored socks allow you to detect cuts and other things faster, and as a duebetic I want to enjoy having toes and feet as long as I can so I'm willing to pack a couple extra pairs of socks and keep em light colored. But you gotta do what works best for you and more power to you.
Thats actually a really great tip! Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!

That’s an interesting one. Some people were white to see leech blood easily too.
Do they make your feet and body temp hotter while hiking?
Only if they’re in sunlight. Socks are usually covered.
