We've all been there. That sinking feeling when you realise your socks are soaked, and you're miles from finishing. Whether you're caught in a downpour on a hike, enjoying some quality time in the snow, or just navigating through an extra wet day, drenched feet can ruin your day. But what if we told you there's a solution to uncomfortably wet toes?

At Bridgedale, we're passionate about pushing the boundaries of what's possible in outdoor gear. That's why we created the StormSock – a revolutionary waterproof sock designed to keep your feet dry and comfortable, no matter how wet it gets. But can a sock really keep you dry in the wettest of weather? Nathan Fa’avae tested it and saw results.

The StormSock isn't just any sock; it's a carefully engineered piece of technology. It features a three-layer construction:

• A durable nylon outer layer:
  This layer protects the waterproof membrane from abrasion and damage.
• A waterproof, breathable membrane:
  This is the heart and the most important part of our StormSock. It’s what makes it waterproof, preventing water from entering while allowing moisture vapor (sweat) to escape, keeping your feet dry and breathable.
• A Merino wool inner layer:
  This layer provides warmth, wicks moisture, and offers next-to-skin comfort. Merino wool

This combination of materials creates a sock that's both waterproof, breathable, and soft to touch, meaning you can say goodbye to sweaty, soggy feet.

Don't just take our word for it. Nathan Fa’avae, World Champion Adventure Racer, recently tried and tested our waterproof sock. Fa’avae kayaked across Lake Wakatipu, New Zealand and hiked up the mountain range of Mount Dick, Southland. This is what Fa’avae had to say about how our waterproof socks changed his adventure:

“As someone who spends a lot of time outdoors in challenging conditions, I’ve found the Bridgedale StormSock to be the ultimate solution when the elements are testing. Wet, cold, windy — these socks hold their own. I mainly use them for hiking and paddling.“

“I’ve gone for the knee-length version, and I’m amazed by how comfortable they are. They’re 100% waterproof, and the merino lining gives them a superb ability to keep my feet warm and comfortable, even on long, tough days. From what I’ve discovered so far, they’re also incredibly strong and durable, built to handle real-world adventures.”

“The StormSock is the most exciting and innovative sock I’ve experienced. They’ve made a significant difference to my comfort on autumn adventure trips, and I know they’ll come into their own even more during winter. For anyone who’s serious about outdoor performance in all conditions, these are a game changer.”-Nathan Fa’avae, World Champion Adventure Racer
