Sealskinz Hydrostop™ Socks

Hydrostop™ technology prevents water and mud from dripping down your leg and getting in your sock giving you the ultimate protection. 

What are Hydrostop™ socks?

Hydrostop™ socks are a model of our Aquasealz™ waterproof socks designed to keep your feet dry, comfortable and protected in wet or unpredictable conditions. Unlike our regular waterproof socks, Hydrostop™ socks feature an elastic taping around the inside cuff of the sock, creating a barrier that reduces the risk of water dripping down the leg into the sock. This added feature ensures that anyone using waterproof socks in extreme conditions stays warm and dry.

How do Hydrostop socks keep feet dry in wet conditions?

Hydrostop™ socks keep feet dry by combining our Aquasealz™ waterproof, breathable membrane with a moisture-wicking inner layer, durable outer layers and an elastic taping on the cuff of the sock to stop water dripping into the inside of the sock. This means that when you are submerged in water, your feet have an added layer of protection to avoid water dripping into the sock. Perfect for activities such as rowing or paddleboarding where feet are always getting wet.

Are HydroStop socks suitable for rowing and hiking?

Yes, Hydrostop™ socks are best suited to activities like rowing and hiking, especially in wet or changeable conditions. For hikers, they help prevent soggy socks and blisters by keeping external water out while managing sweat inside the boot. For rowers, they offer protection against the river, spillage in the boat and the cold, so your feet stay dry and comfortable even in cold, wet weather. Their waterproof and breathable construction also makes them versatile for other outdoor activities like dog walking, shooting and even commuting on rainy days, ensuring your feet stay dry and supported across a range of adventures.
