bruno22rf Posted March 5, 2020 Report Share Posted March 5, 2020 Puma socks from Sports Direct rarely last 100 yards before a selection of holes appear - best avoided. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westley Posted March 5, 2020 Report Share Posted March 5, 2020 I have both neoprene lined and unlined wellies. In the unlined ones I have put in those 'gel' insoles from Aldi. They act as an insulator from the ground, but also wearing just normal cotton mix socks, they do not slide down due to my foot not moving around inside the boot. In the neo boots, I tend to wear knee length shooting socks with elastic garter things around the tops so they do not slide down either.

MrPhantom Posted March 6, 2020 Report Share Posted March 6, 2020 I bought Harkila wellington socks this season. Bit steep I thought at the time but they stayed up and are toasty warm. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Harkila-Socks-Neoprene-Wellingtons-Merino/dp/B01601PLFQ?th=1&psc=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

39TDS Posted March 7, 2020 Report Share Posted March 7, 2020 Just ordinary sock I find the sports socks from Tesco take some beating. Last very well, warm enough and not mega bucks. Something more special then get viscose socks made out of bamboo, they really are pretty revolutionary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
