Welly Socks
Mens Welly Socks
Mens Welly Socks are designed specifically for use with Wellington Boots. A good Mens Welly Sock will keep your feet warm and dry whilst protecting them from blisters and rubbing. Long enough to wear with the upper hem of the sock just over the tip of the wellies. They are typically a little bit shorter than a traditional shooting sock.
Mens Welly Socks are some of the more versatile socks available. Whilst designed for Wellies they are perfectly suited to be worn with boots or regular shoes while being worn in a range of styles. For example, you can double down providing an easy double layer of cushioning of the lower part of the leg. This style of sock is great for all sorts of country activities. Go for a good long hike in your boots or splash through puddles in the rain.
What to look for in Mens Welly Socks
- Length. A good sock will come up to just below the knee but above the lip of the Wellington boot.
- Thickness. Typically designed more to prevent rubbing and blistering than for extreme cold protection. Consider looking at a shooting sock if warmth out in the field is a consideration. While a good Mens Welly Sock will keep your feet warm and dry it should be lighter to wear than a shooting sock.
- Material.
- Cotton is a common material for garments and with good reason. Warm and soft it feels great against the skin and can be easily blended with other materials to give extra features. It is quite breathable keeping your feet warm yet allowing good airflow.
- Merino wool is super soft to wear and is very insulating, keeping the heat close to your skin. More expensive than cotton it will also wick moisture away keeping your feet dry. It does come at the expense of a little breath ability though.
- Nylon is used as a reinforcing material in socks, look for reinforced heels and toes.
- Spandex adds a little bit of stretch, allowing for a closer, more comfortable fit.
