Got knee length seal skins but they are 10+ years old. Would like some MID Length ones

Still seal skins or are there more nowadays?

I’ve had great success with dexshell recently. Much better than the sealskins I had before.

I've been using the below Dexshell.

Mostly because they were in offer, and the name is pretty cool 😁.They have been great, kept my feet dry in biblical rain. As anything waterproof can get sweaty!
I like that they have a rubbery cuff to stop water trickling in.

My other half has seal skins and she has no complaints with them either to be honest. But they seem thicker, maybe it's the model she got.

Seal skinz also do the rubbery cuff and call it hydrostop, but I don't think all their offerings come with it. I would say this is a must, especially if wearing with shorts.

I'm using geckowear socks at the moment.  Knee length though.  Love them.

I've got these sealskinz which come up just inside 661 pads. They are fairly old but nothing like the plastic bag sealskinz of old. They've been great for the last million years of rain
