its the boots you wear that need to be waterproof not ya socks!!if you get a decent pair of goretex boots your feet will be dry and warm!when it comes to socks i wear the caterpillar/jeep thick socks from tk maxx.

Try the ones from wickes ,  they are called heat holders , £4.99 a pair , totally great , i suffer real bad with cold feet , even after being in few a few hours and a shower/bath iget into bed and they are like ice , not any more with these, they actually have a tog rating like a quilt 2.46 i think , normal cotton socks are about 0.6 and boy are they comfy , 2 more pairs to get in the morning me thinks !

Try em you'll love em !
Dare i say BOOTIFUL  , sorry Bernard , loved your turkey ham mate , RIP
