// How it works

Built for the
great outdoors

  1. Outer shell

    Hard-wearing nylon and spandex knit. Takes the abrasion so the membrane doesn't.

  2. Waterproof membrane

    Blocks liquid water from getting in, lets sweat vapour out. The bit that does the work.

  3. Coolmax lining

    Soft against skin and wicks moisture away, so feet stay warm without stewing.

Great little product!

There's a lot of comments here with not too much substance, so i'll try my best to give a realistic review here on Arcticdry Waterproof Socks. I'm going to break it down into a simple pros and cons list: PROS: - 100% Waterproof. I have taken these up mountains, round the Lake District and Snowdon, as well as using them for road cycling and general poor British weather, they have…

ArcticDry Waterproof Socks have really surprised me. I originally got some waterproof socks aldi, and was not impressed, so switching to this brand i have been very happy.
Neil Sherrif · Sep 2019★★★★★
Was very skeptical buying these, but after a few months having them i'm very impressed. Waterproof socks are now a part of my hiking toolkit.

// FAQ

Questions

How do waterproof socks work?

A waterproof, breathable membrane sits in the middle layer. It stops liquid water getting in while letting water vapour (sweat) escape, so your feet stay dry from both sides.

Are they breathable?

Yes. Breathability is what we're known for: water stays out, vapour gets out.

Are they warm?

Yes. Three layers give more insulation than a normal hiking sock while staying thin enough for running and cycling shoes.

Are they for men or women?

Both. Sizing is unisex from UK 4 to UK 13.

How do I wash them?

Hand wash inside out in lukewarm soapy water and air dry. Full washing guide →

Can I swim in them?

No. Water can come in over the cuff. They're for rain, puddles, mud and snow, not submersion.

// Forecast: rain

Stay dry.

Three layers between you and the British weather.
