The DexShell Hytherm Pro is a 100 percent waterproof trekking sock that combines a breathable Porelle membrane with a merino wool inner layer, so your feet stay dry in rain, snow, and stream crossings while still managing warmth and moisture. Its three-layer, boot-height design seals out water from the outside while wicking sweat from the inside, making it a purpose-built solution for wet-weather hiking where ordinary socks soak through. It is an all-season sock offered in sizes S through XL.
Hand-picked by our gear specialists for hikers who refuse to let wet feet cut a trip short, the Hytherm Pro effectively turns any boot or trail shoe into a waterproof one. Whether you are crossing bogs, splashing through streams, or trekking through cold rain, it keeps the water out and adds a layer of natural merino warmth for shoulder-season and winter outings.
Who should wear the Hytherm Pro socks?
The Hytherm Pro is made for trekkers, hunters, and trail runners who regularly face wet ground: bogs, river crossings, snowmelt, and long days of cold rain. It is especially valuable for anyone whose boots are not fully waterproof, since the sock itself provides the barrier. Cold-footed hikers also benefit from the merino inner layer, which adds warmth that a plastic-bag-style waterproof sock cannot.
How are the Hytherm Pro socks constructed?
The sock is built in three bonded layers: a durable nylon outer that takes the abrasion, a Porelle membrane in the middle that is the actual waterproof barrier, and a merino wool inner that sits against the skin for warmth and moisture control. Because the membrane is breathable, sweat vapor can move outward, so feet do not end up wet from perspiration trapped inside.
Are the Hytherm Pro socks really waterproof?
Unlike a standard hiking sock that wicks but offers no water barrier, the Hytherm Pro keeps liquid water out entirely, so you can wade shallow streams or cross saturated ground without changing socks. Compared with cheaper waterproof socks that use synthetic liners, the merino inner layer here adds real thermal comfort and better odor resistance, which matters on multi-day treks.

Questions & answers
Hytherm Pro socks FAQ
Are DexShell Hytherm Pro socks really waterproof?
Yes. The Hytherm Pro is 100 percent waterproof thanks to a Porelle membrane sealed between its outer and inner layers. It keeps feet dry in rain, snow, and stream crossings, effectively turning non-waterproof boots into waterproof ones for the duration of your hike.
Are the Hytherm Pro socks warm enough for winter?
Yes. The Hytherm Pro has a merino wool inner layer that provides natural warmth and moisture management, and it carries an all-season and wet-weather rating. That makes it suitable for cold, wet winter treks where both waterproofing and insulation matter.
Are DexShell waterproof socks breathable?
Yes. The Porelle membrane is waterproof but breathable, so sweat vapor can escape from inside the sock instead of building up. Combined with the merino inner layer, this helps prevent the clammy feeling common with non-breathable waterproof footwear.
How much do the Hytherm Pro socks weigh?
Each Hytherm Pro sock weighs about 2.82 oz (80 g), which is heavier than a thin liner sock because of its three-layer waterproof construction. In return you avoid carrying and swapping spare dry socks at every water crossing, saving weight and hassle overall.
