I am very happy with these socks, but you have to understand that they work more like a wetsuit than like a drysuit. They do not claim to be waterproof and they clearly are not. That doesn't mean they don't work. With a layer of thin socks underneath, I have found that although my feet do get wet on cold slushy runs in these socks, the socks retain the heat and keep my wet feet warm and comfortable.

Received these as a gift, not expecting much but was pleasantly surprised. I wear them over a ski sock and have not had cold feet on a run since. Including 12 miler in single digit temps. Will take them on my next ski trip also.

Just received these as a holiday gift. Was very excited, as I've wanted waterproof socks for a while now. Very disappointed that with the first puddle I ran through last night, water immediately soaked through the bottom/toe area in both socks. These are NOT waterproof. They may be water resistant (doubtful even about that) and certainly seem like they'd offer good wind resistance. Maybe my pair is defective, but I don't care to hassle with trying more of this brand out.

I have worn these stormsock's through two winter seasons now and I love them. They do require a little extra effort to put them on. However, they must fit snug to work properly. My feet do not get cold or feel wind. I have never had blisters or experienced any problems with them. I am looking forward to my third winter in the Northeast with them, and I am still on my first pair!

I am rating these based on size as it has not been cold enough to wear them. I ordered a medium as that was the only size available and it was too tight. I could get them on but my toes were too snug, can't imagine wearing them. I am a woman's size 10 so would definitely need a size large in the socks. I will be returning them sadly, as I was hoping these would be great in our Maine winters.

After 2 uses, all the seams leaked(length of foot, heel.... These do not stretch and until mile 2 or so feel very tight.

I was a little worried at first, because I ordered the suggested size, and the socks were a tight fit and seemed kind of thin. However, upon wearing them, they felt great, and my feet were completely dry on a 1:30:00 run in snow and slush. I wore a thin sock over them because I was afraid my feet would be cold, but I was fine. I'm glad these worked out, since they were kind of expensive, but now I see that they're worth it.

These socks are the REAL DEAL! I live in Minnesota and I run outside all through the winter. When I was younger, I never had problems with cold feet, but nowadays I can feel the icy wind coming right through the mesh on my DS Trainers. At first I tried duct tape, with varying success. Then I found these Stormsocks. WOW! No more cold feet. Plus, they protect my ankles and lower legs when the snow is more than ankle-high, and keep my feet dry when the temps get above freezing and turn the snow to ankle-deep slush. I'm buying more!

These things are great in cold weather. I wear a thin pair of socks, a thicker pair of socks, and then these over the other two pairs. I used to struggle in the winter with cold feet. No more.
I've worn them in as cold as 5 degrees above zero with warm feet. I've done 2 hour 30 minute runs in these in 15 degrees, and had warm feet. They are great.

My feet are always cold. This sock has kept my feet really warm through cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, snow hiking, and just shoveling snow. One time (shoveling snow) they were slightly damp on the inside when I took them off, but my feet never felt cold. The socks dried almost instantly. They feel a bit strange at first, but familiar if you've ever worn booties for rafting or kayaking. A medium pair fit my size 9 feet perfectly. I can't wait to try them for downhill skiing.

i listened to the review at top and ordered a size medium with a 9.5 size shoe- i shouldve definately ordered bigger size-i only put one sock on and will be returning them for regular socks-they felt really tight and uncomfortable and not like a sock at all--they advertise on the outside package for skiiers-i dont know how they would feel for running, so for 20 dollars im not going to find out!

I am only rating this based on the size, since it has not been cold enough for me to try the sock out yet.
The details: I wear a women's size 9 running shoe, and ordered a medium sock. Fits fine.
