[QUOTE="woody66, post: 1204959, member: 95431"] I took a pair of Sealskinz waterproof socks and Merino socks (Darn Tough) I wore them with a merino liner sock (merino should help keep your feet warm even when wet) ! Walked in heavy rain all day in shorts and a rain kilt for 6 to 7 hours. (20,000mm hydrostatic head on the sealskinz socks) I wore non waterproof trail runners! When the rain stopped i changed out my socks and carried on walking and shoes dried in less than an hour. Tape any areas of your feet that are susceptible before walking. Vasaline, body glide or two toms as another barrier to the rain (but i don't use it myself) Link: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.sealskinz.com/products/waterproof-warm-weather-ankle-length-sock[/URL] My feet were dry i just wanted a moan; i always say if it rains just smile and tell yourself you love it! Well after 5 hours i didn't smile!!!! (grumpy old man syndrome 🤣 [/QUOTE]
