We have hardwoods too. Same problem. Bleach eats holes in your clothes and they never come out as white as the commercials. Borax helps some.
Non chlorine bleach.. not a prayer.

Maybe new hardwoods are treated differently and don't dirty them the same way, but our house and floors are 100 years old and even refinished and cleaned, they still make our socks dingy.

It's hard to make everyone in the house wear slippers.

We have to buy a bag of socks every couple weeks at Target. Can't send the family out in ratty socks.
