Sealskinz

With autumn turning up and winter on it's way I thought people might be interested in these. Pricey but I think the socks are well worth it. Very warn and if your boots do let in if it's raining on a long journey then they are waterproof as well. Perhaps one for the Christmas list.

The merino liner gloves are a good buy as well.

Use them week in week out for my off-roading / green-laning. As stated earlier, knee length ones, best �30+ quid i have ever spent...

+1!! They're brilliant. I wear them all day when required (I'm a courier) and wouldn't be without them.

Perfect recipe for happy safe feet:

1 x pair of long boot socks
1 x pair of Sealskins (long)
1 x pair of Alpinestars Tech 3's w/All Terrain Sole (bought from MX shop for �50 cos they had one broken/missing buckle strap but otherwise perfect )

Talking

yea sealskinz are great as long as the water isnt over the top of them , then they act like a wet suit except the water doesnt drain out .
2wks solid wet feet aint good ,trenchfoot was very close.
