I just got back home from the Francés last Thursday. I experienced much cooler temperatures, snow, and a LOT more rain this year than last year. I wore Hoka One Bondi 6s. They are great trail shoes but not waterproof. The rain and wind was almost tropical storm like at times. Even those with Goretex shoes were soaked. Many peregrinos tried to improvise with plastic bags on their feet to keep them dry. I tried the plastic bags, but they leaked. I put my insoles in the bags, and then put the bag / insole combo back into my shoes. Put my feet in the combo, and protected the top seal with some gaiters.
The second day I used a Sea to Summit dry bag in a similar fashion with good success. I have been looking for an alternative on the net and found the Rab VB Socks. They seem like a good solution. Does anyone have any experience with them?
