Rooster Waterproof Socks
Dry feet in wet conditions. Rooster Waterproof Socks use a triple-layer construction to block water while letting moisture escape. Lightweight, breathable and windproof, they keep your feet comfortable during wet-weather paddling, sailing or rigging - anywhere splashes are guaranteed but total immersion isn’t.
What makes these socks good
- Triple-layer design – outer nylon shell, waterproof TPU membrane and soft inner layer for comfort and protection.
- Waterproof rating: 8,000 mm JIS – reliable barrier against rain, spray and standing water.
- Breathability: 10,000 g/m²/day – allows moisture to escape and keeps feet dry from the inside.
- Windproof and durable – blocks cold air and stands up to outdoor use.
- Mid-calf height – ideal length for boots or trainers.
- Versatile fit – thin enough to wear inside shoes, trainers or sailing boots.
Real-world performance
Best suited to paddle touring, coaching days, and big-boat or keelboat sailing - any environment with spray, rain or splashes but not full submersion. The waterproof membrane prevents soak-through while the breathable design stops overheating. For dinghy sailing or prolonged immersion, choose Rooster PolyPro, Hot Socks or Supertherm neoprene alternatives for better insulation when fully wet.

FAQ
Are they fully waterproof?
Yes - the internal TPU membrane blocks water up to 8,000 mm JIS. They’re splash-proof and rain-proof but not intended for long-term full submersion.
Will they keep my feet warm?
Yes. The windproof membrane and moisture-wicking lining retain warmth by keeping water out and feet dry.
Can I wear them inside boots?
Absolutely. They’re thin and flexible enough for trainers, hiking boots or sailing footwear.
What’s the best alternative for full immersion?
For constant wet conditions or neoprene boots, choose Rooster PolyPro, Hot Socks or Supertherm 4 mm depending on temperature and insulation needed.
Our take
Dry, breathable comfort for wet-weather paddling and sailing. Rooster Waterproof Socks bridge the gap between everyday outdoor gear and marine performance - ideal when you want dry feet without the bulk of neoprene.
