Even so, I will sock, step on shoe, sock, put on shoe, put on other shoe. I would never, in any imaginable circumstance, have a sock and shoe on one foot while the other is bare. That is just insanity.
I do it because I’m autistic, hate socks and always walk barefoot at home. If I’m putting on socks it’s so disgusting I put one sock on and then the shoe so tight it kinda overpowers the feeling of the sock, and then do the same to the other foot. That way I minimize the time I have to have just socks on
It’s funny the stuff that can set people off, I can’t stand the feel of long pants and short socks. If I’m wearing long pants, my ankles have to be covered by my socks.
I could maybe see if you have high top hiking boots to go sock>insert foot in shoe BUT LEAVE UNTIED>other sock>other shoe (tying in whatever order works). I wouldn’t consider that a full “shoe” though. Like if you put the horseshoe up to the horse foot but didn’t nail it in. It’s not truly on until it’s tied.
For me personally I change outfits several times a week in a public bathroom, so my main goal is simply to avoid letting my socks or any of my other clothing touch the floor.
Corollary to this, I actually complete one foot start to finish before moving on to the next. So at the halfway point I am fully wearing a new sock and shoe on one foot, while the other is still wearing my old sock and shoe
This response just raises further questions!

This is the way, you can change pants and socks without sitting ^^
