        I read a post a few weeks ago where a few people mentioned they were buying these, are they worth the money?

                    The best ones are the Mid Thermal Socks. They’re the warmest SealSkinz do and they come about four-inches up your calf so it’s easy to tuck your trousers into amd stop drafts.
                    SealSkinz socks are absolutely brilliant!

                      They feel a bit strange to wear at first but they are so warmest socks you will ever wear imo.

                        not in my opinion ive stopped wearing mine because my feet sweat then get freezing cold,ive gone back to wearing a normal pair of socks whitch allows me to move my toes and keep them slitely warmer than when i wore sealskinz.

                          Got mine from 0800 sports on t’internet too. Cheapest I found online. Took a while to arrive but I’d guess they’ve had a run on them due to the weather and the recommendations given in Match Fishing and forums such as this. Only thing to bear in mind is they aren’t overly generous particularly if you plan to wear lining socks underneath, if you’re at the top end of the sizing range (they’re small, medium and large) you may want to go up a size.

                          They are better than any other thermal sock by a country mile.

                            Having worn sealskins for 3-4 years I will say they are the most waterproof sock I have ever worn but certainly NOT the warmest as any sweat cannot wick away and is retained within.

                            Brasher 4 seasons are far warmer in my opinion, albeit without the same waterproofing.

                                      My first pair of sealskinz socks were 2 years old this christmas. They have been worn up to 3 times a week in summer and either once or twice a weekend during winter. They have been worn with trainers, wellies, bagging type boots, moon boots, waders, the lot. If these socks didn’t wick away moisture then i’m fairly sure I would have found out by now. I’ve even had half a welly full and my liner socks/ordinary socks have never even been damp and that’s in ALL weathers! It may sound obscene but these socks have not been washed in 2 years and they honestly don’t smell one bit, just left out to air naturally after each session as when worn in any rubber boot the liners end up sodden. Now if the liners end up wet through then why aren’t my undersocks wet? Because the sealskinz work! 100% waterproof, 100% breathable, good insulation but not the ultimate that’s why I wear them with moon boots.
