Actually wearing the neoprene under the wool sock defeats two of it's three thermal advantages. The advantages of wool is that it does three things,#1 it will wick (not as fast as a synthetic) but will wick. #2 It will absorb the moisture into the inner layer and away from the skin. Because it is a two layer fiber with an outer scale type layer that does not absorb water and an inner layer that is absorbent. #3 It will insulate. The moisture wicks through the scaled outer layer and is absorbed into the inner layer, which is why wool will still insulate when wet. And does not feel as cold when wet, as say cotton. So even though it will help insulate the neoprene if worn on the outside it is not as efficient as wearing it under the neoprene. Neoprene does insulate but neoprene won't wick the moisture away from your skin, so you will tend to have a wet layer on your skin if worn next to it.Hi,
Thanks to the great package deal that White's had going on, I'm the proud owner of a Fusion One dry suit.
The suit came with 3mm neoprene socks. Would people recommend wearing those over the feet first, and then some sort of smart wool type sock over that? (Or vice versa?) If so, how thick should the socks be? I might be trying an ice dive this winter and the water would definitely be cold.
Also, is there a brand/type of sportswear that people would recommend wearing under the MK2 Undergarment that came with it? Has anyone tried the MK 0?
Also carry a thermos of hot water so if your feet start to get cold during your SI pour some hot water in your boots to warm your feet up.
