Totally new product

These socks are like none other. They are extremely handsome, sporty socks, well made, and I'm sure, water repellent. I have two issues, they tend to be like compression socks less willing to give with the shape of the foot. That can be good or bad. Also, It seems like they have a fine layer of rubber between the outer and inner layers. When I flick the sock, I can hear the sound of rubber which accounts for the water-repellency. That can make the sock a bit restrictive.I recommend the socks…

Pros
  • High-quality construction ensures the socks won't slip down during activity
Cons
  • They may not be able to withstand harsh weather conditions

Not 100% waterproof. Soft and comfortable.

This is the second pair of SuMade 100% Waterproof Socks I received in a small. My son who wears a men's 8.5 and these fit him just right.I tried them on, they are comfortable on my feet and provide ok cushion. I'm a women's 7.5, they fit good but still have a bit a room in there. I tried to submerge them in water to see if they're really 100% waterproof.I know that these should be worn with shoes for hiking, running, etc … so the shoe will provide a barrier between water and sock.However…

Pros
  • Great and waterproof but kinda feels like a wetsuit boot on
Cons
  • They might cause your feet to sweat excessively

Update: The socks held up well over the past few months. They faded, but the waterproof layer is still intact and keeps my feet from moisture.The socks are soft to the skin and the thick thermal layer to keep feet warm and they provide good cushions also. The socks are well crafted and high quality. The heel and toes areas are reinforced with extra yarns, so they are more durable for hiking and trail The socks are totally waterproof for sure. My feet didn’t get wet at all even my hiking shoes…

Pros
  • Maintain a natural feel while still wearing socks in the water
Cons
  • They are not machine washable

Work as advertised!

These socks are amazing. First of what stood out is that they are super comfy. Let's face it, for these kinds of socks, that you will wear during the roughest of conditions, you want something that you can wear for a long time comfortably and these fit the bill to a T. They provide additional support that help preventing fatigue while you wear them. They have additional support and cushion in the heels which is great. They are breathable, windproof and waterproof and hold up beautifully during…

Pros
  • Good
Cons
  • The sizing may not be accurate

They WILL keep your feet DRY!

As a female.While these neon-green & black socks aren't what I'd consider "attractive", I was WAY more interested if they'd live up to their claim AND would they feel comfortable. They also aren't super inviting to pick up -- the outer fabric isn't "warm & fuzzy", but I was delightfully surprised how soft they felt to my skin on their inside layer.I typically wear a women's size 8.5 Medium shoe. These smalls were the right size for my foot. The toe area is rather puffy (not snug), but I assumed

Pros
  • Sports & Outdoors
Cons
  • They are not suitable for heavy-duty hikes or kayaking excursions

Work But Not Perfect

These fit pretty well and I would consider the sizing accurate. But do size up if you are on the edge because there is little stretch in these. My husband's calves are too wide to wear high socks so these were a good solution for him. Yes, they do leak a little if water rises above the ankle but it's still better than normal socks which will have you squishing in seconds. He combines these with his water shoes and is much more comfortable, especially when the water is colder. He doesn't stay…

Pros
  • Moisture-wicking technology keeps your feet dry and comfortable
Cons
  • They may cause your feet to feel cold in colder temperatures

Not waterproof: my feedback

After only an hour or walking through the wet grass my feet were soaked. I was under the assumption that they were actually waterproof. not the case.

Pros
  • Perfect for hiking, kayaking, and other water-based activities
Cons
  • They can be difficult to put on, especially for those with wider feet

100% waterproof: my feedback

These were a lifesaver for our summer trip to rainy Ireland. Everything else was soaked but my feet. Super thin so your shoes don't feel especially tight. Washing machine friendly, but er air dried just in case.

Pros
  • Outshell: 100% polyester; Interlayer: 100% PU waterproof and breathable membrane; Lining: 100% Polypropylene. Ultra thin fabric make feet comfortable, flexible and not bulky.
Cons
  • The material might start to smell bad after a few uses

Waterproof actually works

After 2 hours of disc golf in rainy weather, the outside of the sock was wet, but inside my foot was nice and dry That's my review!

Pros
  • Machine washable for easy cleaning
Cons
  • They may not look good with certain types of clothing

Works Great for my opinion

Keeps my feet dry at work! My shoes always get wet due to my job and these help prevent me from sloshing around for 4+ hours every night.

Pros
  • Provides added grip on slippery surfaces
Cons
  • They are not recommended for people with certain medical conditions
