In reply to andyjohnson0:
Been a few years now since last used, but I never got on with Sealskins for hill walking. Useful for less active use though where waterproofing is number 1 priority. Gave them a good try on hills though most of time too hot (or too cold in winter!), too sweaty, feet too damp, lack of breath ability, too stiff (years ago so maybe different material now?) so wear rate was high at toes and heel, and generally not comfortable due to type of material; feet were worse than in normal wet sock and occasionally when water run down legs felt you were squelching in water!
Solution for me was quality leather boots, and good quality wool socks and when they leaked eventually they were still far far more comfortable overall. BTW, I don’t get on with goretex boots if that is a factor as I run hot and sweaty with them also.
Limited experience with trainers suggests they perform much better than in boots. Maybe just me.
Anyway, if you wish to try, pick up a cheaper pair and see how you get on rather than spend on Sealskins.
