The problem I had with them are my summer boots are quite tight fitting and with these socks on there isn't quite enough space left in the boot to be comfortable. They are also very warm, so no good in the summer, but October-April would be fine.
If I was on tour and had to use them every day for a week they would honk and if you wash them I don't know if they would dry out that quick overnight unless you left them on a radiator.
The ones I have probably are made any longer, but in this video the guy mentions various warmth ratings. Not sure how much they paid this guy but he was impressed as well. The video shows the materials which gives you an idea of what they are like bulk wise.

Tried these and found them very tight/uncomfortable with army boot. Also if on proper heavy rain days when water comes thru boot the outside of the sock gets wet and although feet are dry the cold water makes ur feet cold. I think the waterproof part shud be on the outside and warm sockie bit on the inside. The manufacturers have got it the wrong way round imho. . Also I would like to be able to get another sock or two inside but they seem to only go up to xl which is a British size ten.
Just flapping about on this stagnant little pond on the outer rim of the internet.....yup.... :-))
