Miss Lynn 160 Posted October 21, 2017 Report Share Posted October 21, 2017 (edited) I was wondering what kind, and brand, of socks you folks wear come fall/winter in your wellies ? I would prefer to wear my wellies as much as possible as they are easier to get in and out of in what seems to be a zillion times a day. My feet sweat a bit, and what I wear now seems to allow for a small period of time before my feet are damp and cold. Any suggests or advice is appreciated.

C556 351 Posted October 22, 2017 Report Share Posted October 22, 2017 A pair of those NATO desert socks, with a thick pair of old wooly socks on top. They usually keep my feet dry and toasty. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Caravan Monster 323 Posted October 22, 2017 Report Share Posted October 22, 2017 Army gore tex boot liners http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BRITISH-ARMY-SURPLUS-BLACK-MVP-BOOT-LINERS-G1-SMALL-TO-XL-GORE-TEX-STYLE-FABRIC-/192222046746?var=&hash=item2cc153aa1a:m:moc6jziJm8FgKvNxDi9XgBA with normal socks work with wellies. The sweat condenses between the boot liners and wellies, so there is a bit of a squelchy sensation, but your feet stay dry and warm. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
THE STIFFMEISTER 14,558 Posted October 22, 2017 Report Share Posted October 22, 2017 Just read your wearing wellies, I take it your not doing huge mileage in them? For boots , things like increased arch and heel support in socks matter as your on shanks pony a fair way , in wellies I don't think it's as important If your wellies are lined types ala le chameua sketch then try football socks ! If not then any big filling sock should do Personally I don't wear anything special in wellies , sports socks tucked into jeans manage ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
