Quest for a perfect hunting sock

[shelbys]

Guys, I know somebody out there can help me out. I am looking for a great pair of hiking/hunting socks that I can wear in warm weather with my boots. Most of the wool socks or wool blends tend to make my feet hot and sweaty.

Any suggestions????

i wear exclusively explorer socks made by the holeproof company in australia. i bought some when i was over there about 10 years ago at the suggestion of my sister who lives there. they are very comfortable-warm when they need to be, yet not too hot in warm weather-and they last a long time. i've still got pairs from the original half dozen pairs i bought 10 years ago. worn out several good pairs of boots in that time. you could probably find a source for them online.

I have tried nearly everything. For hot sweaty feet make sure you get something with coolmax. Thorlo makes some great sock IMO. That what I go with on my 25 milers. My advice would be try a few pair and go with what works best.

I wear the Cabela's Ultimax socks for warm weather hunting. They are light and really wick moisture away from your foot.

Have you tried spraying your feet with an unscented antiperspirant? What type of construction are your boots-uninsulated with cordura panels?

I agree with beaner,
coolmax liners and thorlo light hiker weight hiking socks are a good combination.
When it is hot and your feet are sweating that is even more reason to wear two socks.

Try this combination, I think it will help your situation a lot.
