Waterproofing socks are resistant to water penetration and allow passage of vapour from inside-out to provide breathability. These are used in activities such as hiking, shoes, skiing, snowshoeing, and mountain biking, where the potential of wetting the feet is high. Growing adoption of outdoor recreational activities such as hiking, trekking, snow sports, backpacking, and wildlife viewing is in turn driving growth of the market for waterproof socks. Low market penetration of waterproof socks in developing countries such as Vietnam, Sri Lanka and South Africa among others is one of the barrier to the growth of the waterproof socks market.
