if you're wetfooting (and going over the top) with a non draining neoprene boot system, use caution.

i just reviewed a trip report where one of the paddlers got a "trench foot" like condition caused by having his feet in water inside a neoprene boot every day. he was barely able to complete the trip and then missed two weeks of work when he got back in.

i've just been using the storms with a poly sock, including cold water spring trips. they drain like OTB and are warm when wet.
