are these socks waterproof. Do they let water get in? I live in Panama and I need something that protects my feet from the downpours.

the water easily gets in the top. I don't think they are meant to stop water from getting in - only to protect your feet from chafing and getting cut on rocky beaches.

Water can get in if submerged. Feet stay dry if walking around on a wet surface.

I used them with chaco sandles for hiking in Hawaii on muddy trail. My feet stayed dry.

Although I put them on when I was already in the water, I don't think they are waterproof in the sense you inquire about. (They're now in storage, so I can't try them out for you -- sorry.)

Your feet definitely get wet, they have grip on the bottom to prevent slip & falls only. Not waterproof

They are waterproof as far as rain or even pressure washing goes. I have not tried to submerge them into water as of yet. But in order to do that water would have to be 3 foot deep.

they are not waterproof but the moisture doesn't soak through quickly if subjected to some water. i haven't submerged them in anything so i can't speak to that..

They are water resistant. I have shaken dew and light rain off and not gotten wet. When they do get wet, they dry quickly.

Yes they are water proof, but to a certain extent. You dont want them getting soaked all the time.

They are made for tropical locals that see a great deal of rain, so this shouldn't harm it. Also, they dry quickly, so after a few hours, they are dry! Love mine!

No, these are not dry boots, they are very porous and your feet will be just as wet in these boots as they would be without them. They are simply thin aqua socks that fit very nicely into just about any open heel swim fins.

They're not waterproof, but I've worn them through a tough, ton of sweat workout and they're still working. I wouldn't risk wearing them in the rain.

I have not swam with them in. However I did wear them in the shower to test the water resistance. Not a single drop of water got past the ear plugs. I think swimming with them in should block the water, just make sure the ear plugs seal properly. Hope this was helpful!

They may make waterproof ones. The ones I got were not. They are designed to keep dirt ect. on your shoes from getting into carpets and other flooring.

I would say water resistant, they do have a ziploc type closure at the top, but not sure if submersed it would keep out water

Yep. I got these for running, so the interior socks were soaked in sweat. So even though my feet did not get wet from the snow, they were wet from sweat and just as cold because the air and ground was cold. If you are not working out too hard, interior socks might add warmth. These socks are not warm like wool, just water proof. :)

Simple answer...They don't! Moisture from sweating feet and legs has no where to go so your pants and socks will be quite clammy from all the sweat moisture that they will soak up.

No, they are not. They are made of black fleece with a plastic "skid" pad. These will definitely absorb water in wet conditions. They work well in dryer conditions, to protect from salt and other road chemicals in the winter, and keep feet a little warmer but, they get wet easily.

These are supposed to be water resistant. I went into a creek and I was sure the pants would be soaked, but it beaded right up and it was dry. I have never been in a downpour, but at some point I am sure these pants will become truly wet.

I wear these in work boots and my feet stay dry. However, I do wear thorlo cusioned socks as well.

These socks do dry very fast. They are fantastic. I wear them with boat shoes for sailing and also for jogging and working out. They are comfortable and always keep my feet dry. Will they dry overnight? Probably, but I guess that depends if you hang them and where you hang them. In a warm, low humidity environment with decent air flow, they should dry overnight.
