I want to wear these for ocean stand up paddle boarding while the water is still cold. Will these help to keep my feet warm if they are wet?

I agree with both previous respinders but unless high wind speed I think you'd be quite pleased with how much warmer than bare feet

if it is a windy day, this may not be as useful as you would think. the evaporation caused by the wind could make your feet cold, I have noticed this while in my wetsuit going from one dive site to the next via boat

They did not keep my feet warm in 45 degree water. I bought a pair for surfing and my feet were freezing. The seams are not glued so water moves through them freely. In my opinion, they must be for protective wear such as for diving in warm water.

They fit quite tight so that is good, but they are a thin sock as apposed to a bootie. I wrote mine under my fins to snorkel and they kept my feet warm and helped protect from blisters

your feet will get wet but the instantly warm up to body temperature. they work great for me

Cyndi they keep me warmer but not dry.I also live in S Florida. My pool is cold but not freezing.

yes, as long as it is not too wet or slushy. feet stay warm and toasty and covered, but NOT water proof.

I am not sure on the wind factor. I believe they should keep your hands warm. The pair I purchased were for ice fishing.

I use the gloves at the farm cleaning and filling waters in cold weather. They will keep your hands dry as long you don't snag them. jI don't any experience with high wind wet conditions.

Yes, you can get them wet but I don't know how much longer they would last or why you would wear them under water? I use them each summer on our deck with the family and they are the best. After use seal them in a plastic zip bag, and they are ready for the next day!

yes, they can get pretty toasty in there. i only wear them to walk to work in the morning as there is dew all over the grass & gets my feet & pants wet & they seem to be fine. but i have worn them out to check on my garden & they definitely keep your feet warm.

No, they haven't made my feet sweat but I wear socks with them and it has been cold. They have a cloth lining in them and a great supportive foot bed that is also cloth lined. I have used them in the snow and my feet do not get cold either. They are not insulated but I was just fine and dry in them with my light wool socks on.

Hi Ken: I'm not a surfer, but they were very skid resistant when walking on wet decks and metal plates when we were on small boats. They do get a little getting-used-to with the water sloshing around your feet inside the boot, but they were very comfortable to wear. Randy

I use them with a drysuit when kayaking with cuffs over and cinched. They are not dry but limited leakage When immersed when entering or exiting boat. Constant and prolonged immersion may pose a problem.

Yes, but only if the water level doesn't rise about the top of the sock. I used these when snorkeling, so they were fully submerged as soon as I got in the water.

I use them for a toasty swim in 62 degree water very thick. I would guess yes re lobster catching ie enough padding

I would just get a good pair of felt lined waterproof boots and wool socks. These socks are good for keeping your feet dry but they also make your feet sweat a bit. In a cold weather situation these socks would keep your feet dry, but they would also be frozen.

Hi I only just got these, so I can't really answer the question but they are made of rubber so my guess would be yes they would make your feet hot/warm like most rubber boots. I will wear these even in the summer if it is raining! It would depend on how you would use them during the summer months. Perhaps a good idea would be to wear a thin cotton sock liner (the ones that do not come up too high on the foot) in the boot.

Hello I wear 11.5 I ordered a size 12 they seem to fit well. They are not insulated I use mind to put the dock in and out. So in the spring I wear long pant I don't have any problems. These are very nice waders for the price.

No, they are not. They are made of black fleece with a plastic "skid" pad. These will definitely absorb water in wet conditions. They work well in dryer conditions, to protect from salt and other road chemicals in the winter, and keep feet a little warmer but, they get wet easily.

These socks are tough to rate for activities like that. It will certainly keep your feet dry in terms of outside snow, but your feet will end up very wet due to sweat, as they do not breath at all. Think of it like wearing a wetsuit on your foot.
