[QUOTE="Former member 92300, post: 1159617"] My experience is with rain - the shoes usually don't soak through - but when they get wet they usually dry pretty fast. If they are still wet at the end of the day - you can put newspaper in them overnight to help dry the out. My socks usually don't soak through with most rain - if they do - it helps to change into dry socks during the day. In October I would bring an extra pair of socks. Problem is tall wet grass or too many puddles that you can't avoid - that is when my trail runners AND socks get too wet. For those days - I have decided to carry one pair of waterproof socks. Why did I go that route instead of wearing goretex trail runners or boots? Because my feet do better in generally with lightweight, breathable trail runners. And by bringing waterproof socks - I can have that - but then I can also have the socks for when the ground is way too wet. Best of both worlds and works for me. I use ankle height waterproof socks and no shoe injinjie toe liner socks. Why ankle height? They weigh less! I wouldn't switch to goretex boots until full winter condition months... when lots of snow is likely. [/QUOTE]
