If your wellies are quite loose at the top little bits of water could be getting in the tops of your wellies  ???

Do you wear your waterproofs over the top of your boots ? Have you got breathable waterproofs ? Maybe you've got festering feet. It could just be early signs of a bigger problem that you need to speak to your doctor about.

Go to a Army surplus store, and get some Gortex boot liners, keeps your feet dry and warm.

It's just sweat.

Wellingtons trap sweat in your boots thus your socks get wet.

Waterproofs will have the same effect on your legs.

Goretex liners sound like a good option. More expensive waterproofs will help too.

I wear goretex for much of the time when on my motorbike and it is awesome kit.

Try the blue over shoes the type they wear at crime scenes etc or what the gas board put over their shoes when going into houses etc.
Just put them on over your socks then put on your wellingtons, feet stay dry all day. They are throw away and cheap as chips, OCH sell them.

just purchased some 100% waterproof rigger boots that i will wear under my waterproofs. I need a pair of breathable waterproof bottoms now as i had a cheap pair of golf ones that i sweat in. or at least my jeans are soaked underneath after working for hours.  is goretex best?  can anyone recommend a good pair of bottoms that will keep me dry??
