Another oversight is doing socks then one sock for both participants in both tests. Matt even stated that he'd learned from his mistakes on the stairs, which would indicate he had a technical advantage over his previous runs. Should have had Steph do 2 sock/1sock and Matt do 1 sock/2 sock and/or have them do an additional run with the first condition
This may be far-fetched, but Mat's habit of removing one sock, usually the left, might've caused his left foot to adapt and heat itself up more than the other. If they tried it both ways, they could prove or disprove this. I hate socks, sleeves, and prefer shorts over pants, have always been that way because they make me feel restricted and I've noticed especially in recent years that I'm naturally warmer than family members who, growing up, were taught to dress for the season not neccessarily the weather.
The chemistry between Matt and Steph is honestly hashtag goals. The banter, the way they play off of each other, the teasing and friendly competition... It's all just so wholesome. Ollie is being raised by an amazing couple of parents! And that's NOT just a theory... It's a fact.
you forgot about the most important factor, comfortability. i can wear 2 socks or none, but wearing one sock and having the other barefoot is too uncomfortable.
I love watching Matt and Steph talking. They genuinely seem to enjoy each other's company and the fact that they can talk about random topics with ease is 10/10 friendship level goals
Hey matpat i had an idea for a theory, you know how perfume ads are… really weird? What if you did a test where you watched a perfume ad and did a smell test and tried guessing which perfume the ad was for? I was wondering if they actually worked or if they were all just completely random
and he should do a version of the test with traction socks (idk what they are officially called but the bottoms actually are made to have traction) just to see if the sock you choose for the choice actually matters
im halfway through the video and im just thinking to myself "why not no socks?" Im an avid no-sock-wearer while at home, and i feel like it does everything the 1 sock does while being more comfortable
It's so weird, yet nice to hear voiceover commentary from Steph paired with Mat. I know she's done it a few times before, but I don't think I've ever seen it last the whole video.
This was such a silly couples argument between you two to prove who is right and I am totally living for more theories like this, it's so wholesome in a way lol
@@dominickucela6144 Yup, fully agree with you! Going barefoot in the summer helps losing down all that heat. Especially if you have nice and chilly stone flooring, that keep your toes cool.
Honestly from all of the channels this theory is my favorite. Steph needs to be apart of more theory videos! You two are adorable but more importantly this was an incredibly fun and silly theory and it seemed like you two had a blast making it.
This is slowly becoming my favourite Theory channel it's just so unhinged at times like this is basically a mix between solving a silly argument, merch promotion and fan service for wikifeet users 😂
I agree with Matt on the the running experiment that 1 sock obviously works as you have more grip with your bare feet. But I agree with Stephanie that 2 socks is still the best to wear especially with shoes going outside. Wonderful to see Stephanie again hope we can see more of her in the future again. ☺️❤️
Isometimes forget they're husband and wife, so just seeing them coexist along each other while having little conversations fills me with glee. Also: MAT AND STEPH ARE SO FREACKING ADORABLE OMGGG
Three thoughts: 1) More theories like these, please! 🎉 2) Others have mentioned no sock trial and half-worn sock trial, but I would also like to propose sticky bottom sock trial (usually found in warm sleeping socks, they look like the bottom of kids' onesies) 3) Why does MatPat not just start the day with one sock? Or have a designated mini sock hamper? I always joked about putting a hamper under my brother's desk for his socks (which he took off in pairs) because I could always see like a dozen down there...
Honestly, I am feeling a lot of wholesome energy coming from Steph and Mat. They are the perfect couple NGL. Their conversation with each other is just wholesome. Like two peas in a pod. :3
Big miss on the lack of barefoot testing, which is what I do during warm months. But there are other things to consider too. In cold months with slippers, socks minimize the sweat going into the slippers. And there's also just the weirdness angle... you'd have to defend an inherently weird style/clothing choice to everyone else. So, yeah, the only viable choices are two socks or no socks.
Maybe not, remember matpat uses the sliding technique, something way harder to do without the sock since, you know, the bare foot is used for better grip
Yes! No socks FTW! Then again one of my feet has almost no traction (eczema turned basically the entire bottom into one smooth mass of scar tissue) so I might as well wear a sock, except it would aggravate the eczema.
I love her too! I miss the days of the dynamic duo, but I'm also so proud of her for choosing her own path and being able to live life the way which brings the most joy.
While I am firmly in Team No-Sock, I absolutely LOVED this episode and look forward to more fun wholesome family-quabble-related content in the future :)
I could never wear just one sock... because then I'd be getting all sorts of kitty litter on my feet! But actually my preferred foot covering is actually slippers- they protect my feet from kitty litter, keep my feet warm, and are less slippery than socks. But it's easier to take off a slipper than socks, imo.
Maybe you can try a litter mat or different litter? I dunno, some track worse than others. I had a cat with the fuzziest feet imagine who who track litter granules into my bed, it's the worst
My favorite kind of slippers are the 1s with the ankle straps to help my slippers stay put on my feet when I need to wear and use them even if I know that its detriments and limits are that they will take longer and even harder to take off especially if I buy or got a bad pair of strap slippers or sandals.
This episode is great 😂 It’s so nice seeing Matt and Stephanie have so much fun together and collabing on content. I miss seeing Stephanie in videos tbh. I’d love to see more of it.
I’m surprised they didn’t take the socks off for each test as well just to have a base of how much it warms or cools when there are no socks / speed and grip in bare feet
I love the more relatable epesodes purely based on a dispute between partners. Just fun. And the ones where they kind of just hang out. Edit: Please redo but add a no-sock option to show a full batery of options.
Look how far we've come. From everyone not believing Mat actually wore one sock after he revealed it on Gtlive and all of us being shocked/horrified once it was demonstrated to be true on food theory. Mat has finally done it. I hope I never have to think about this again.
I have a suggestion for a style theory! I wish they explain why do we need to change perfumes each season? Or like why are there scents that won’t work if it’s like summer or winter? This always bothered me when I was a kid, but I use it as an adult. Like I can “detect” that this is for summer or this is for winter. Love what you guys are doing, sending love from the Philippines! 🫶🏼
The intro, with Mat saying he's using team theorist to win an argument with his wife immediately reminded me of Dan fighting his wife about if coffee is a soup 🤣🤣🤣
Just thinking of ideas could you guys ever do a style theory episode involving shoes? It’s kind of nuts how expensive they are and I kind of realize something most shoes have a point on the top which crunches up your toes so they can’t move as much and spread out. Just thought it might be fun.
There seems to be a flaw with the experiment here: what about no socks? If these are the criteria you're worried about, maybe you'd be better off just without socks.
Steph brought up a great point with Hair Color. Can we get a vid about the Naming Conventions from Black hair to Blond hair especially? There are quite a lot of categorical terms, and I really don't understand them. Are the terms anyway sensible? Corporate Nonsense? Or Social Construct lol
I don't care what the results will say - ain't no way I'm only wearing one sock. 😂 Also, if you don't sleep with ANY socks, then you'll naturally release heat from both feet. Besides, sleeping with ANY socks on is uncomfortable for me.
I'm the same about sleeping, unless it's REALLY cold - but the discomfort from coldness has to heavily outweigh the discomfort of socks... and even then they have to be the super stretchy fuzzy bed sock type socks... and I end up kicking them off in my sleep when I'm apparently warm enough 😅
Thank you for leaning in to that horrifying caricatured 'head and feet only' imagery around the early-middle of the video, it was hilarious and creative! Sort of like Hoggle from Labyrinth, or Petscop- adjacent, or maybe something that the Grumps would come up with. Cheers and great episode!
not only does it help with speed and safety, but it lowers the amount of socks you use, cutting the amount of socks you need to buy down by a full half, saving you 50% on each purchase of socks. and if you go through socks like i do, that's a lot of money...
I personally think another factor should be taken into consideration: what might be on the floor. I don't mean the flooring, but children and pets can mean different items may be strewn across your path. Two socks should be better insulation against things like stepping on a LEGO (since both feet are insulated, meaning you have no chance to step on one with bare feet), while it's definitely easier to clean up when your pet decides to leave a "present" on the floor (as will sometimes happen). As well, I can think that it's important that if your feet always feel cold, you have the warmth of a sock when you're walking around, especially since the cold floor can be quite annoying (and, conversely, help you insulate from a hot floor in the summer). Lastly, there's the odor factor. Both socks on should keep the foot stink from permeating as well.
For those of us that don't shower religiously before bed: i find that my feet are cleaner after walking around in socks than without. If I go out and wear shoes without socks on (sandals, ballet flats,etc) and walk through some dirt, my feet are going to be filthy and will need to be washed. Socks save me from that plus I can spin and slide on my hardwood floors more easily which makes kitchen duties more fun
Yay! Im glad you and steph did an episode together. 😄 Also, even if one sock is better than two, it would drive me CRAZY having only one foot exposed. I gotta have two socks or none.
First of all, I think I can safely say that this is one of the few times I've seen you air out your dirty laundry. *ba-dum CHING* Second of all, I can't believe you made me cry when you described your relationship as “hanging out together”. Your relationship with each other reminds me of my own relationship with my husband. It's just…another day of hanging out with one of my best friends.
Great episode, but isn´t it likely that the reason you scored better on the newer race laps was due to practice from the first rounds and not the extra grip you gained? :)
Missed the control, guys. No socks, One sock (swap feet for even better testing), then two socks. Matt removing the same sock he always removes nullifies the experiment because his body is already accustomed to it. The way you structured the experiment as is doesn't prove anything because not enough variables were tested.
🧦 Whose side are YOU on: one sock or two socks?
BASED MATPAT
I wear four socks
Yo momma
two, what is wrong with you?
Tbh I would say none
As a person who goes barefoot around their house I feel like you guys did a major oversight in not testing no socks.
Another oversight is doing socks then one sock for both participants in both tests. Matt even stated that he'd learned from his mistakes on the stairs, which would indicate he had a technical advantage over his previous runs. Should have had Steph do 2 sock/1sock and Matt do 1 sock/2 sock and/or have them do an additional run with the first condition
Same!
Agreed. No socks is clearly superior.
And slippers
Meeee toooo!

doesnt sound far fetched to me at all

The conversation between Mat and Steph was just adorable.
Yeah... theyre so cute!
Kinda weird she hasn't seen his body in 2 months
Matt coming in with the Dad Jokes is hilarious!

I don't think that I've seen anything cuter than that whoosh. So sweet that Steph let him redo his whoosh.
I’m literally so happy to see Steph. Everytime she’s back my heart is warm. I have missed her so much

His final words will be a dad joke either way
you forgot about the most important factor, comfortability. i can wear 2 socks or none, but wearing one sock and having the other barefoot is too uncomfortable.
Exactly
The imbalance is too much
I HIGHLY agree. I can't even wear holed socks due to the texture driffence. One sock would be to much
oh yeah? You think so? Wear wet socks then.
I can fix that problem, one grip sock, one regular sock🧦
The imagery of Mat and/or Steph barrelling up the stairs to get to Ollie is just too charming for words.

Is it sad that I was aggressively annoyed that no socks weren't an option?! I have always been no socks.
team no socks!
Socks suck! No socks club!
Sockless unless I must, usually for boots.
I think the point was to find which way of wearing socks was better (so either one or two), not how many you should wear (0, 1, or 2)
You are all animals

But I agree with Stephanie that 2 socks is still the best to wear especially with shoes going outside. Wonderful to see Stephanie again hope we can see more of her in the future again. ☺️❤️
Would like a follow-up with grippy socks and a no-sock option (which would clearly be superior in the foot race for maximum traction).
I'm for grippy sock supremacy, because my freezing toes need coverage.
Doing anything in those psyche ward grippy socks do be feeling weird 🥴

I like how all these tests would have even better results with no socks
Ikr?! No socks gang
Maybe not, remember matpat uses the sliding technique, something way harder to do without the sock since, you know, the bare foot is used for better grip
Speak your truth, king
Yes! No socks FTW!
Then again one of my feet has almost no traction (eczema turned basically the entire bottom into one smooth mass of scar tissue) so I might as well wear a sock, except it would aggravate the eczema.
Exactly. They forgot a huge part of this test. They’ll just have to do it all over again with no socks included. The results are invalid until then
So great to see Steph again!
YEEAAAHHH SOCKS R DO OVERATED WOOOOO
@jehousel6487 YES
Agree.q
The conclusion is that sockless is SAFER. Steph was still cold, and that is the reason she wears them.
16:38 Was that the fall of 87
Wow 12.87 seconds what a specific number
I love when Steph and Matt are in videos together.

Didn't she mostly leave GTlive because of Ollie? At least thats how I remember it.
So how about grippy socks for around the house? Then you can wear two like a normal person and have traction.
I say. The only socks I wear around the house is no slip sock or no socks.

I would like to petition that Stephanie do more narration for these videos because she has an awesome tone and delivery!
Not gonna lie, I think the footed heads of Steph and MatPat are my new sleep paralysis demons…
First of all, I think I can safely say that this is one of the few times I've seen you air out your dirty laundry. *ba-dum CHING*
Second of all, I can't believe you made me cry when you described your relationship as “hanging out together”. Your relationship with each other reminds me of my own relationship with my husband. It's just…another day of hanging out with one of my best friends.
Counterargument: being barefoot is superior😎
My Filipino heritage says that yes. Barefoot inside the house is superior.
"One sock is superior"
Me, an Asian who keeps Barefoot inside: NUH UH
Steph and Matt's relationship is so cute 5:49
Great episode, but isn´t it likely that the reason you scored better on the newer race laps was due to practice from the first rounds and not the extra grip you gained? :)
Or had longer legs. That's a huge advantage in climbing steps.
Pretty sure they didn't temporarily grow thier legs between rounds.@@dominickucela6144
This is literally what i thought. They never changed up the order.
Mat at 0:06- I intend to win an argument with my wife
Me- Team theorist, warm up the couch for him.
I love a Stephanie appearance! I've missed her a LOT!
Missed the control, guys. No socks, One sock (swap feet for even better testing), then two socks. Matt removing the same sock he always removes nullifies the experiment because his body is already accustomed to it. The way you structured the experiment as is doesn't prove anything because not enough variables were tested.
