They have a Dyneema X sole, along with a silnylon upper with a shockcord drawstring at the top to seal out rain, snow, and the cold. There is a second drawcord at the ankle to help cinch the over-booties around the socks. They also have a removable closed-cell foam insole for extra foot protection when walking around camp.

About Ben Smith
GooseFeet Gear was founded in early 2010 by Ben Smith, who at the time was 20 years old and in his 3rd year of college at the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, GA.
The company started out with down socks as the primary product, and quickly moved into other simple areas like waterproof over-booties and pillows. I started designing other products in late 2010 – mostly down pants, balaclavas, and vests. I used word of mouth to sell quite a few of these items. Starting in 2011, I started making jackets and quilts as well.
Every item that we make is hand-made in the USA, so you can feel good about the fact that your hard-earned money is helping to keep a small local business going.
