How good is the ventilation for keeping your feet dry during warmer months?

I don't know about the ventilation because the boots did not last long enough to use in warm weather. Poor quility. I would never buy them again !

I bought these. I have used them for about 2 years for metal detecting, been in the water about 3 hours each time in 40-75 degree salt water. I find very little problem with sweating in them, I usually wear a pair of cotton socks and they may get just a tad damp once summer comes around. In winter I use 2 pair wool socks and they keep me warm with no sweating. The bottoms are rubber about 15" high, and the upper part is of a thinner waterproof material so they don't get hot inside like all rubber boots. They are more comfortable also. The only complaint I have is from folding them down to the rubber boot section top, I have worn a small hole in the back on one of them. I did seal it with Goop and it has been ok since. 'Update' the Goop seal only held about 3 times in the water, and the boot started to leak again. I will have to find a better sealer. They have lasted much longer than the all rubber Hog boots and some no name boots I have tried, even before they started to leak.

I have only used these once so far and was when I went crabbing from a boat. I did not seem to be too warm in them and the weather was nice but not hot. The legs of the boots are roomy enough so as to get ventilation inside of them. Overall, I really like them, especially for the price. Where I plan to use these will be for standing in 50 degree water and will be adding wool socks with I am fishing.

They keep your feet dry but they are rain boots, so they won't keep them too warm! Still awesome boots though :)

It's pretty well ventilated. I used it on the beach in Florida in August and it was a heck of a lot cooler inside the tent than laying directly in the sun. I mean, it doesn't feel like you've got A/C pumping through it but the ventilation gives you a nice breeze.

I am sure they will make your feet sweat if you don't wear socks as they are not lined with anything. I have only had mine this winter and don't know how they will be in warmer weather. Although awkward to put on I am very pleased with mine so far and they are relatively comfortable to wear.

there is not much of a liner in the sole so yes my feet did sweat a little, but we had a very cool summer so I am not sure what it would have done in some real heat.

These socks do dry very fast. They are fantastic. I wear them with boat shoes for sailing and also for jogging and working out. They are comfortable and always keep my feet dry. Will they dry overnight? Probably, but I guess that depends if you hang them and where you hang them. In a warm, low humidity environment with decent air flow, they should dry overnight.

I'm not a scuba diver but I can tell you that I wore these while volunteering for Ironman CDA where the water temp was 63 degrees! I spent almost 4 hours in the water and can say that my feet kept perfectly warm. The socks are pretty true to size. Hope this helps!

These socks seem to have a little more wool in them and because of this, are wonderfully warm in the winter. In fact, they are my favorite winter sock. I would, however, pick something cooler for a hot climate. In my opinion, Balega's are better suited for hot temperatures.

I've riden in 38* weather and my feet where fine. I have wide feet too, plenty of room. I wear 12.5 so I bought 13, too big better off going 1/2 size smaller. Very comfy. Use Mink oil to water proof

I live in Alaska and we have wind and rain. I have never had a problem keeping things dry this summer. If it a really down pour you can close the vents

The pantagon selk has removeable feet. Yes, it is seems likely that it would keep you dry.

They'd keep your feet dry, but they are not insulated. Maybe they'd be warm enough with thick socks.

It's great during dry heat but it gets very humid. Not for cooling a whole room.

I live in San Diego and sick where my feet are cold even the summer. These insoles keep my feet warm with one pair of thin cotton socks and they do not make your feet sweat. They are made in Canada where it gets really cold. If I were you I would buy a couple of pair because I think you will really like them. They do not look like anything special, but they are.

I have worn these in 20-ish degree temps and they keep me much warmer than regular socks. I would say they are perfect at 30-degrees.

I was wondering the same thing. I live in the jungle, where normal inside temp is around 85-90. Would that be considered a "cool, dry place"?

I have this tent and I have used it in the heat of a muggy FL summer. It does breath but not like having a non-canvas tent (I also have the Big House from Big Agnes). But if it's raining this tent is much more breathable than the other tents that have to have rain fly's on. it's really a trade off. I use this tent every single time I go camping if it's 90 degrees or 20 degrees. It's a great tent that is built like a tank and will last a lifetime. My advice... buy the tent and get a box fan to put in it during the summer.
