'PERFECT'

Strengths:
-Extremely waterproof
-Very comfy
-Really breathable
-Fantastic!

Weaknesses:
-Expensive but so so worth it

Overall:
No matter what, boots you wear, what terrain your are passing, or what the weather is. These socks will simply stand the test.

I use them predominantly with my Salomon SCS GTX walking boots and iv had them for over a year now, wihtout so much as a damp foot on any of my walks. They have endured above ankle bogs, and calf deep snow. I never look to put my boots on now without putting these on first.

Although they may seem slightly weird in fit to begin with, this is no problem and you will soon forget you have them on. That is unitl you take your boots off at the end of the day and you feel your bone dry socks underneath.

'AMAZING'

Strengths:
does exactly what it says on the tin!!

Weaknesses:
non. If you are looking for a comfortable pair of waterproof socks buy these and you will never look back.

Overall:
Have had a lot of boots in the past and have wore a lot of socks. These socks are amazing no matter what boots you wear. You can walk around the campsite to go to the loo in the middle of the night without having to put on your boots again so that is always going to be bonus. Unusual sensation when you put them on but these socks are realy very comfortable. I have now had these socks for 2 years and they are as good condition as they were new.
There is no problems with these socks that i found with their performance. only coment that i would have is they are near impossible to try and buy a pair.
FIND THEM BUY THEM AND DONT LOOK BACK

'I DIDN'T BELIEVE IT!!!!'

Strengths:
Totall waterproof and not as bulky as you would imagine.

Weaknesses:
ummmmmm......! thicker than normal socks so may ot fit in your running shoes.

Overall:
I was sceptical about these and they're expensive so I borrowed a pair and WOW!

I wore them in my Walshes with a thin pair of trainer liners and fully expected them to constrict my feet and allow at least some water in but they did neither.

I ran through bog, streams and all the other fell running nasties you would expect and the results were perfectly clean, dry, white trainer liners at the end of the day. No blisters just warm, dry happy feet.

Pricey but I'm not running without them again.
