Waterproof socks are socks equipped with a membrane that is resistant to water penetration. They are usually made up of three layers, wherein the outer layers prevents abrasion by shoes, the inner layer provides insulation and comfort, and the middle membrane prevents water penetration from outside and provides breathability by allowing the vapor to pass outside. Waterproof socks are breathable, stretchable, flexible, windproof, provide thermal protection, and prevent the feet from getting wet. They are used for outdoor activities such as hiking, mountaineering, cycling, and working in the rains.
