I’ve been using these socks for several years now during the winter months while running in the local moors and hills.

I’ve tried Gore-Tex shoes and socks but my feet always end up wet after a while so I eventually took a leap of faith and gave these a try after a recommendation. I wasn’t disappointed, obviously your feet will still get wet wearing them but because they’re made of neoprene (wet suit material) your feet stay warm even when you stand in a freezing puddle or stream! No more frozen toes!

I’ve not had any issues at all with rubbing or blisters and I’ve done quite a few long distance runs wearing them without issues.

The only small but acceptable issue is that they have a tendency to wear a hole in the big toe area and will only really last one winter season, depending on how much running you do in them. But, in my opinion that’s something I don’t really have an issue with as after all, they’re not designed for running and the benefits far outweigh this small disadvantage.

If you’re a keen trail/fell runner, these socks should be in your winter kit for certain.

good fit as described in the size guide

Very Good Value for the money.

Sailing shoes usually have very thin soles. Walking over pebbles can be quite painful , but with a pair of these on it's much , much better ( obviously with sailing shoes on as well).

Useful under wetsuit boots
