Do you find them wet on the outside but dry on the inside sometimes?I also use the Lamilite socks. They have been the best socks I've worn for wicking sweat. I get away with using lighter boots for more of the season.
Wearing any other sock under the Lamilite sock will impede the advantages of the Lamilite sock. Wiggy's socks work so well at keeping your feet dry, adding any knit sock under it, regardless of material will absorb sweat and make your feet feel damp and clammy.Wiggys update if anyone is interested. Exchanged my L mittens for M, and fit is nice. Got the size 9 sock. Went on a 2.75 mile walk early this morning, where I am at weather said 17 degrees and feels like 7 (whatever that really means). Wore the socks directly on skin, not even a thin tight sock under, and non-insulated Merino low cut hikers. With the mitts, worked great, never felt like I needed a hand warmer, finger tips fine, which says a lot for me. Feet never got sweaty or damp, not even close to cold, again for me that says much.
Now if I were to wear a medium weight sock (or heavier) under the Wiggys sock, a size 10 may be in order.
Very impressed on this first, albeit basic, test. For those that use Wiggys Laminate socks, do you wear a thin sock under them? I wonder how these will perform in an all rubber boot.

No, they are a lot thinner than the Kodiac mittens. They are very light weight but incredibly warm for their weight. As far as adding bulk to your clothing, I'd say it's about equal to adding a sweatshirt just lighter in weight and a lot warmer.How thick are the liners? Would they be the same layer (thickness and warmth) as what is in the Kodiac mittens?
Do you wear it against your base layer?No, they are a lot thinner than the Kodiac mittens. They are very light weight but incredibly warm for their weight. As far as adding bulk to your clothing, I'd say it's about equal to adding a sweatshirt just lighter in weight and a lot warmer.
Yes, but how you wear them is up to you. I wear my fishnet base layer then add a knit base layer over the fishnets (depending on the temperature outside) then usually the liner, then my outerwear.Do you wear it against your base layer?
