RANDY SUN Waterproof Socks, Unisex Hiking Wading Trail Running Kayaking Crew Socks

I was worried these XS socks would be too big, but they are just small enough. If they were any bigger they would be too big. (In regular shoes, I’m size 6, running shoes or boots I’m size 7, sometimes in dress shoes I’ll be as low as 5.5. If your feet are smaller than mine, I’d recommend going down to the children’s version that this company sells.) I have always lived places where it either does not rain much or doesn’t rain hard, so I’ve never thought it was a big deal to just run with regular gear and maybe throw a rain shell over top. Every once in along while there would be a big storm and I’d get soaked to the bone, but no big deal. However, now I’m somewhere where when it rains it really rains and if I run in the rain, I’m going to get soaked. So, I’ve done that a bunch of times this year and done with it. I can’t wait to try these out on a run. Just testing them out so far, I can tell they won’t breathe well, but if they did, I’d be worried about their rainproof-ness LOL. If I have a choice between hot feet or soaked and freezing feet, I’d take the former. I’m a trail runner, so can’t wait to go splashing through puddles! If the socks do not live up to my expectations, I’ll update the review. By the way, I’m very picky with sock seams and not getting blisters, especially when it comes to running, and I think these seem like they’re going to be comfortable in that way. They are more bulky than my regular running socks, but I wear the ultrathin socks without padded toes or heels. I would say that the thickness is on par or thinner than the running socks I’ve tried on that have are padded. I tried these on with my running shoes and the shoes are more snug, but not to the point of needing to go up to the next shoe size or squishing my toes or feet. I chose these socks over a shorter pair of waterproof socks (both brands recommended by a runners world article) just because the shorter ones will not stop rain from going down inside the sock. These are waterproof and snug over the ankle, so I’m confident they will be great. I also love the bright yellow color for street running to make me more visible. Sorry for the ramble - I’m just really excited to try these out and wanted to make sure I addressed all of the comments other people have made and the questions I had before i bought them :)

I wore these on a hike with lots of water crossings and I found them comfortable. I don't know about the waterproof claims because they are not waterproof, but they were great for what I was using them for; especially for the price.

I wore these under my boots in the snow and fyi they were not snow boots. Luckily, my feet stayed completely dry. These do have stretch and the fabric is not soft, rather it feels like it is coated but not uncomfortable. I honestly found these to be oversized. I found that to be a tad bit uncomfortable because of the excess fabric past the toe. However, they worked and functioned just how I needed so I would recommend them. I looked at a lot of others and I think these were a middle ground price wise and work as advertised.

I'm female and wear a size 9 1/2 or 10 shoe. I bought these socks in blue medium for a trip to Patagonia where I would be hiking in wet conditions and getting in an out of zodiacs. Since I read reviews that said that the socks don't have a lot of give, I bought a little bigger size than recommended. Tight socks give me toe cramps. These had enough extra toe room to make them very comfortable wearing throughout the day....but not bulky. I tested them before I wore them by putting my hand inside and running cold water over the socks.... felt the cold but no wetness. They worked great on the trip and my feet did not get wet. Put them in the washing machine on cold when I got home.... let them air dry. No shrinkage. I put my hand inside and ran cold water over them again and same results.... no wetness. Sooooooo..... highly recommend!!

These socks perform as advertised. Use for walks in the PNW on rainy days and my feet stay dry. I think these are better options than buying shoes with waterproof membranes built in.

Seems to be great quality. Fit tight on calves to stop water as well.

Very good. Tested them in my shower and they kept my feet dry. Wore them on a four hour kayak expedition in Alaska and they kept my feet cozy and dry. Feels slippery at first, but you get used to it quick and it's a small price to pay vs. having soggy feet.

These were purchased on the advice of a friend because they worked for him, but they did not work for me. I was using very breathable hiking shoes on a long hike, almost 500 miles, and these socks were suggested to put on if the shoes got wet, keeping feet dry while allowing the shoes to dry out too. Unfortunately whenever I put the socks on, the moisture on my feet from sweating could not escape, and my feet stayed wet. Also the "waterproof" lining within the sock made it possible for my feet to rotate within my shoe regardless of how snug I laced them up, which I felt made me more at risk for ankle sprains. After a few rainshowers I gave up on these socks, and after rainshowers just went sockless until my feet were dry, which worked better for me.

Comfortable, the best waterproof socks

Me.han ayudado cuando llueve mis pies no se mojan y están secos

It's really good product it works very well for my munnar trip but note that only the part below ankle is waterproof and above its not, so if ur riding and watersplashes can still enter Overall really worth it
