[QUOTE="JTW24, post: 1757260, member: 111932"] They’re fine if you don’t get them wet... but you’re screwed if you do. Inevitably, there will come a time when they do get wet. Don’t get me wrong... I do it too. But I’m aware of it. My choice of gear going down to the farm and hunting in the deer condo is waaay different than if I’m going on a week long pack in elk hunt. But the old saying that cotton kills, is said for a very good reason. It sounds to me like the OP is fighting the wrong battle.. if he’s spent a ton on various socks and boots and has done it right with those things. Then I would look at what’s different. If you have diabetes and poor circulation anyway maybe it’s the way and what you’re sitting on further reducing circulation to the point that you could have a camp fire under your feet and they’d still be cold. I don’t know what he’s hunting out of or sitting on... but maybe try a different chair or pad under you. I’m thinking that it’s possibly the position your seated and what you’re sitting on that’s causing the issue more than the equipment on your feet. I can sit on the couch for hours but 15-20 minutes on the toilet and I can’t stand because there’s no feeling in my feet! Maybe you’re having a similar issue? I dunno... but it might be something to consider. [/QUOTE]
