Actually Waterproof!
Was prepared to be very critical of these because $35 for socks is crazy but these were one of the cheaper options I could find. They actually are completely waterproof. I just had them on my hands and ran under FULL BLAST water for 5 minutes and nothing. Totally dry hands even when balling up the material and moving it around a lot. The outer sock gets wet but it never penetrated the layers to hit skin. If you need a waterproof sock these do just what they say! I wear a women's size 5-6 shoe depending on the brand and I got the XS. They fit with enough room to wear a normal wool sock underneath. The material obviously isn't the same as a regular sock so I found it more comfortable to have a texture I'm used to under it, but its by no means uncomfortable. The calf might be tight on someone thicker than me though. I have stick legs and it's comfortably compressing, maybe size up.I also got the black and it's a really really nice dark, saturated black. Fellow "only wears black" people will understand lol

waterproof and warm
These socks are thick, tight, and waterproof. They are almost like compression socks. I gave them an extreme test (by accident) as I fell out of my kayak in an Alaska glacier lake. Total immersion, head to toe. My boots were completely filled as I slogged to the shore. Took the boots off, emptied the water, and the socks (because of that complete immersion) were wet of course, but my feet never got cold and the socks dried almost immediately. I was impressed and bought another pair. Kayaking in Antarctica next.

Keep your feet dry
I was skeptical, but these actually keep your feet dry when submerged in water.

Not waterproof under extreme circumstances
I purchased 2 pairs of the knee high socks for my husband and myself for cycling in the rain. They are comfortable and warm for me. For my husband though, the socks don’t seem to keep his feet warm but he loves the socks same as I do. Kept his feet dry riding in the rain.I put mine to a real waterproof test- I rode through a 300’ long area of flooded road, 9” deep. My legs and top of feet stayed dry but the soles of my feet were soaked. So the picture of the feet running through a creek on the packaging got wet feet if the shoes filled with water, I would bet.

They really work!
I've got a couple pairs of these water proof socks that I use on motorcycle trips. They fit well and keep your feet both dry and warm. I did think they would make my feet perspire more than normal but haven't found that to be an issue. I rode 300+ miles in the Alps, from Switzerland into Austria, in a cold rain and when I arrived at my hotel, my feet were the only part of me that was still dry.I recommend Randy Sun water proof socks to anyone who doesn't come in out of the rain. As an added benefit, they also work like a compression sock, so kill two birds with one stone, so to speak.

Perfect cold water hiking socks
I hiked over 40 miles in Paria Canyon in and out of water and mud for days. These socks were amazing and kept my feet warm and sand free. And I love the colors! The knee high length was especially helpful in the higher water. They are thick, but feel like regular socks. I highly recommend for cold or wet conditions.

Wet, wet, wet
I’m not sure how this mfr could suggest any level of waterproof capabilities these socks have. I recently purchased for the purpose of hiking and navigating low level water in a creek. Feet were soaking wet within a matter of minutes. When I took the socks off, water literally poured out.

Best waterproof socks that actually work!!
I was really skeptical about these socks being waterproof at first. I decided to test them by soaking them in the bathtub... and surprisingly, my feet stayed dry. But I wondered, would they hold up for miles in an ice-cold river?Today, I hiked about 2 miles through freezing water, wearing wool socks underneath. My feet were slightly chilly, but nothing unbearable. When I got home, I took off the waterproof socks, thinking there’s no way they kept me dry. But to my amazement, my feet were 100% dry!Randy Sun, my whole hiking group wants these socks now!
