Socks get smelly from wearing them inside closed shoes; the smell isn't the sweat itself but rather the product made by bacteria when they break down the sweat in anaerobe circumstances (with little or no oxygen). That's why bare feet don't smell, and why people who in winter take off their shoes & socks and cause half the room to pass out can still wear flipflops in summer without the same result -even though in summer it's warm and they sweat more. But yeah, if you wear socks in closed shoes for some time, and especially if you don't switch shoes allowing them to dry out completely in between uses, then you probably have smelly socks. That would include a good number of people at least in wintertime when sandal-wearers and bare feet are rare.

i think people who are lazy and don't want to change socks wear smelly ones or maybe they worked all day and have not had a chance to change because they didn't have a new pair.

Sure they do silly,
My daughter is in this fad that she has to wear two different socks at the same time and she wears them for days. I tell her to change them, but do you think that she does. NO!!!!
