Great video, Luke.
I got a pair of an earlier model about 16-17 years ago, when I worked as a mailman. They saved my day several times. Nothing great about being out on your bike in the rain for maybe 5 hours and having the water soaking through your shoes and socks after only 15 minutes :-(
Sealskinz kept my feet dry and my spirit up the whole day. Game changer.
I love SealSkinz products, they really do work great.
and perfect for Yukon winters.
Ah.. was waiting for this, good stuff Luke! Interesting concept. Definitely looking forward to the longer term test.
Thanks Joshua. More about these coming soon.

I recently bought one from Amazon based on this video...thanks.! It worked amazing!
Cool review, subscribed to your channel, thanks for sharing!!!
I love see you have a review of what everi decide to buy Luke!
Thanks for the review Luke! These sound pretty cool!
Thanks Dee!
- Luke
They work great in snow. Its crazy seeing you so young.
good for bikepacking. Good job! nice review
Thanks for testing the socks out
I use them. And really like waking up on a cold morning on a sheep hunt and my boots are frosty and damp, put my fresh regular socks on and seal skin over, and I don't know I have cold wet boots.
very good tes i was allitle worried at first but no yeah thank you i thin its impresive to
SealSkinz are amazing! We use them mountain biking in early spring, and late fall in area that are guarantied to have water crossings.
Dont know if you realize but they have two kinds...one can be fully submerged, the other not; as in, water in get in through the top.
Thanks Triton, I didn't know about the socks. I appreciate you pointing that out.

Great review, thanks Luke
Thank you my friend.

Thank you Carlos!

I have a couple of pairs of the full length, slightly heavier weight, military style Sealskinz socks, and they are great. I usually wear a thin Coolmax liner sock inside. The outside finish is a little odd, but it slips into a boot nicely (I just threw our my Columbia Bugaboots, as I'd worn them to death) and I favour a tall, combat style boot. As you noted they aren't cheap, but that's why I wear the coolmax liners, to reduce wear on the inside, and also I can swap the liner sock for a clean one, and get more uses from the Sealskins, and cut down the laundry strain on them.
For dry conditions, I favour a wool/polyamide blend again, the military issue type, with loop stitched soles. If you get the socks right, walking is so much more comfortable :-)
Thank you so much for letting us know of your experiences!
Sounds great to me.
Be well my friend.
- Luke
Seal Skinz makes some great stuff, I like wearing mine with my Israeli Scout canvas boots,the boots are light weight and quick drying with awesome grip and the socks always keep my feet dry. You might really enjoy a pair of those, not a lot of support for a heavy pack but 20 to 30 pounds and they are fine. Palladium make some as well but I really like the Israeli made brand the best, they are made by Dafna Footwear. They are my goto boot for almost everything. I really enjoy your reviews. Oh Yeah the Seal Skinz gloves are pretty cool as well.
Thank you Tommy for sharing your thoughts and experiences with these socks. I'm going to take a look at the Israeli Scout boots.
Cheers.

I just learned about SealSkinz products which are much more costly than the $30-$40 price range you mention.
It appears their socks, 8 years later, consist of 3 layers, the interior layer is now a Merino Wool.
Also, SealSkinz is a UK based company.
great video as always brother.
Thank you Andrew.
Be well my friend.
- Luke
Did you ever get round to doing a long term review of these socks? Had a look round your channel but couldn't find an update... Thanks
great review. See it, order it costs me seconds. I also ordered btw a pair of ultra grip gloves from SealSkinz. I will use both for kajaking and trekking.
thx Luke !
I might have to get a pair of those gloves to test out.
Thank you my friend.
- Luke
If the water splashes up higher up on your legs or runs down, does it get in the sock?
Hey man, did you end up testing them when hiking? did you find your feet to sweat really bad etc
Took these on my first backpacking trip in the Colorado Rockies. It never rained and the creeks were small so I never got to test them.
Doh!
Maybe next time.
- Luke
Thank luke😺👍
That would be great for hikers with prosthetic legs like myself.. We aren't supposed to get out legs, especially feet wet. I am going to have to grab some of these!
I think they would work very well for you my friend.
- Luke
are they still waterproof if the water goes above the sock? looking forward to you trying them out on one of your hikes.
Once the water goes above the sock, they will being to get soaked.
I will update on their performance in the future.
Cheers.
- Luke
Sweet, thanks Luke.
Thank you Tim.
- Luke
GOOD JOB MY FRIEND-
Thank you very much.
- Luke
Do they run true to the size chart or smaller/larger?
have you tried with feet with sock completed submerged in the water?
I'm also wondering about this...
Hey buddy what size shoes do you wear and what size sock did u get
Looks like a nice time, and those are great socks, BUT listen Luke, I was looking for a video review of your use of the Eberlestock Terminator, during your review of the pack you said that your going to use it in an upcoming video, can you link me that vid, if not are you going to do a load vid of that pack??
Hey there brother, I have used this pack in this overnight adventure. Maybe that is the video you are speaking of.

Nice socks Luke My best to your mother-in-law. Take Care and be safe
Thank you greatly Jim.
- Luke
I must have weird feet, the large felt too loose and the medium felt too tight.
If it's Waterproof how do you wash it?
Lmao....the million dollar question
Wash inside out
Better than the original VW Beetle!
ill take your word for it but i wish you turned them inside out on camera after you got out the drink
Andys Aquatics Inkbull They definitely passed the test.
- Luke
Don’t wear them without shoes or a sole to protect them from punctures.
How much was those hip boots? just joking buddy. bubba
I believe you mean "review" lol
The editing is a bit dodgy how you didn't show yourself entering then leaving the water in one shot and it's also strange how you cut before the sock came off your foot.
I'm not saying you're lying but the editing suggests it.
That's true... Wtf?
if your waterproof bag fails you will not be able to make a review about it because your camera drowns xD
Haha I would have to buy another camera and then make the review.
I wouldn't be happy either.
Cheers.
- Luke
TheOutdoorGearReview Suggest you put your camera and mobile phone in a sock each when crossing water 😎
