> Seal skin socks would work the same, I guess ?
Actually I seem to recall Seal skins products being breathable/waterproof, so they "should" let sweat out and also keep the outside muck out.
That said, pretty much all thermo-molded innerboots are actually semi- vaporbarrier. That is to say, that only the lining inside the inner will get moist and the sock.
I tried the vaporbarrier thing many moons ago, and to be honest it wasn't a real success... That was an artic skitouring trip for 1.5 weeks and sleeping in tents.
Nowadays I simply carry 2 thin liner socks and 2 slightly thicker oversocks. And swap during the evening to the "fresh" pair and sleep with the "old" socks under to lonjohns on me quads (to dry 'em). And again swap socks in the morning...
The normal way of "drying" the inners is to take them off as soon as possible and leave into sunshine... they often dry rather quickly. In case it's snowing, well then simply leave them in a sheltered location to cool down (moist of the moisture is actually sucked away) and take them inside the sleeping bag just before hitting the sack.
