would these be good for outside work in the ice,water..etc maybe to wear over socks to keep your feet dry &amp; warm?

Yes, I am a Dairy Farm Inspector. I wear them for the exact reason, to keep my feet dry in the winter, from snow, ice and water. I cannot wear them in the summer, they get way to hot.

They breath a little to well for weather below 60. Below 40 and you wear them under your uniform pants ;-). But Yes you could wear them outside inthe winter. They do not repel water and It would be a poor choice, but you migth be one of those people who run hot.

As long as your shoes/boots have space I wouldn't know why not. These socks are typically worn in cases where your feet will be in water (wading through rivers) for longer periods of time so wool socks over them in submerged water would provide little to no insulating value and would likely add weight to your feet with drenched socks.

I wore Feetures fitted socks under them. I would think wool over them might hold water in, but I'm not sure.

They will help, but are maybe not thick enough for serious thermal protection. Excellent, though, for keeping road-salt and ice from paws. 3rd winter, 2nd pair.

No they wont. If they fit snugly (order a half size smaller), they may insulate your feet from water and the elements. But they wont keep your feet from getting wet.

These socks are mainly to be worn like slippers. They would be very tight inside a boot, unless the boot is a larger, looser fit. But these socks are THE BEST!!! My feet are always cold and these socks are the warmest "slipper" I have ever owned!!

they are not insulated or waterproof...they have a little plastic pad on the bottom that might give some protection from cold but it does not always stay at the bottom of the boot...my dog loves these for walking inside on cold hardwood or tiled floor in the winter, but I don't have him wear them outside.

I used them over waders to duck hunt slippery rocks on Long Island sound, they did not stay on very well and ripped shortly after purchase. I would say for walking around on icy stuff in boots or shoes maybe, anything more demanding no.

The person who told me about them is a runner. I love them and/but they occasionally slip off/need to be adjusted if very sticky ice/snow so they're highly recommended AND be cautious!

They are a bit thicker than a normal sock. Wouldn't so much say they are great for for winter.

They might, but there are better choices. My experience with neoprene foot- and hand-wear is that they shouldn't be used when water-proofed leather or fabrics would do to keep you warm. Save the neoprene for submersion or nearly constantly wet conditions (and when it is not subject to much abrasion).

They are DEFINITELY waterproof. My husband bought these for when he has to work in a very remote place in Canada. They are great quality and you should have no problem with slush/snow.

Absolutely, these are very light but still keep your legs very warm in cold temperatures...I wore them as a base layer in 20-60 degree weather.

Hello, These socks are WARM, and thought I love them for fall and winter, my feet do get rather toasty in them. I'm thinking these may not be the socks for you; the dense weave, which makes them super strong, does trap heat. Again, good for winter wear, but if your feet need more breathability in socks, then I don't think I'd go with Darn Toughs.

No; this booty is strictly for warming the feet. You wear them over socks or bare feet. Most folks use put them on after spending a cold day outdoors. You can wear them outside but I wouldn't substitute them for good boots.

Depends on how wet... might be OK if they don't get drenched.... of course the safe answer is no, must no be used outdoors I think... but might be worth a try... pls. do not blame me if you have problems!
