Barb got me these for Christmas 🎄

I think I can get some use out of these. For a while every time I rode with Delrod, we had a monsoon :angry:

:thumb: I really loved mine in a horrible week of rain.
(But since I've purchased some really good rain boots (I hear) it's barely rained on me!)

No idea why that song came to mind :evil:

No more bread bags!!

Moto- I got water splashed over the tops of my boots in the woods last weekend. And it was cold :angry:
Dusty- got to hear me some Zappa now!

1300 miles in rain socks and water shoes returning from Ely MN. They work.

These are good to but are more of a removal barrier over a conventional sock for boots that are not waterproof. (Like black Gaerne trials boots !)

I've been wearing trials boots for years (Forma now) sometimes hitting a big puddle in a wheelie doing 30-40 miles per with your riding buddy next to you just seems like the right thing to do and sometimes a little gets up over the top of the boot. <shrug> :grin:
-
Never heard of waterproof socks. Interesting.
I wear Gore-Tex riding boots when on a tour. I also have Gore-Tex riding gloves and a custom made motorport breathable rainsuit. I can ride all day long in the rain and stay dry.
I definitely recommend Gore-Tex and Motorport.

Those look a great deal nicer than the original Seal Skins...

I was thinking that too. I wore a pair of original SealSkinz on our Nova Scotia trip and they did work well (although when I dropped the bike at almost a stop, the sock melted on the exhaust - THAT was hot!)
However, since then I've discovered Merino Wool and SmartWool socks and that's all I ever wear - foot problems (sweaty, or athlete's foot, or little fungal issues) are gone for good with those, and I wear the waterproof part elsewhere (boots in this case).

There's a fungus amungus :sad:

One thing about anything being waterproof. If it keeps water out, it can also keep water in. Ask Zoom Zoom about his bike swim at the MN. National bike drowning. :tongue:

Was very fortunate to see Frank 3X's while living in CT. Since moving South to TN 33 years ago i have seen his son Dweezil perform as Zappa Plays Zappa. If you ever get a chance see them!
Check out the Frank's son performing "Black Napkins"
