FAQs

Are these socks suitable for very cold weather?

The Dunton socks feature Merino wool for thermal regulation, making them suitable for cool to cold conditions. For extreme cold, consider Sealskinz's thermal or winter-specific ranges.

How do I determine the right size?

Refer to the Sealskinz sizing chart. It's important to get a snug fit. If you are between sizes, it's often recommended to size down for the best waterproof seal.

Can I wear these with everyday shoes?

Yes, the ankle length and comfortable materials make them suitable for casual wear in wet conditions, though they are primarily designed for more strenuous outdoor activities.

How long does the waterproof protection last?

With proper care, the waterproof membrane is designed for the lifetime of the sock. Regular washing according to instructions helps maintain its performance.

What is the main difference between this and other waterproof socks?

The key differentiator is the Hydrostop™ technology, which creates a barrier at the top of the sock to prevent water from running down your leg and compromising the waterproof seal.

Can these socks be worn without shoes?

While they can be worn without shoes around the house, they are designed as an outer layer for footwear to provide complete protection during outdoor activities.

Troubleshooting

Socks feel damp inside

Ensure the socks are the correct size and fit snugly. Check if water has entered from the top of the sock, above the Hydrostop™ band. Verify that the socks have been washed and dried according to care instructions.

Water ingress from the leg

Make sure the Hydrostop™ technology band is positioned correctly on the leg and forms a seal. Consider if the external water source is higher than the sock cuff. Ensure the socks are not too loose.

Reduced breathability

Check if the socks need cleaning. Dirt and residue can clog the waterproof membrane. Follow the care instructions for washing and drying.
