Pro Activ Bivvy Socks

[Polly]

Anyone got a pair, if so are they waterproof and can they be worn outside on "wet" banks without shoes. Not getting much in the way of runs overnight at the mo but I'm sure my day/night will come and I don't want to spoil the moment by getting soggy socks. Also nice to be able to take a leak without searching for my trainers.

Whooops!!!

Think I meant Pro LOGIC not Pro ACTIV

Im Getting these myself they seem really warm and they also have a rubber sol so you will not slip if you get a run in the night. I would recommend that you get a size too big so you can wear an extra pair of socks just in case you step in a puddle then your feet will not get wet at all. Hope this helps

how will an extra pair of socks help stop your feet getting wet?

[coxy]

The bivvy socks are fairly waterproof so if a small amount of water gets through your socks will stop it getting to your feet. In Theory!

 

It has worked for me!!!!

Sounds good to me. Think they're made of neoprene so should keep the water out. It's just the sole I was concerned about and whether it is robust enough to walk around outside on.

As for extra socks underneath, they may lead to sweating and therefore cause dampness from within, not to mention the stench.

Wear trainers and keep them on, so what your sleeping bag gets dirty, it can be washed
