    Has anyone tried using neoprene socks? I've been thinking about doing it. The ones I use for wet wading have grippy soles and might do quite well. You'd feel everything, stay warm and dryish but quiet.

    Identify your target beyond all doubt because you never miss (right?) and I'll be missed.

    I tried a pair of my dive socks, they fell to bits in a day. Although to be fair they were a bit old allready. They were comfy while the lasted

    No, but the Wettie ones have kevlar soles. Could be useful for this purpose? Expect very sweaty feet, not healthy.
