Woah!! Sealskinz are rubbish!! No way! Surely one of the best ways to keep your feet dry in the winter – especially if you are wearing tights with them as the water doesn't run down your leg into them.
Coupled with some overshoes on really wet/cold days & lovely toasty feet is the result…..mmmmmm!
Anyway….back on topic. All activity specific socks seem expensive. We were looking for some for the other half at the weekend and some of them were £11.99 a pair!! Ended up getting some basic socks from Tescos – 5 pairs for £5 and they seem to do the job.
I just wear Next trainer socks for cycling.
I think walking/running would be the only activity where I'd consider 'proper' socks, as blisters are a real pain. Never had a blister cycling though.
