Help. Every time I wear boots or shoes, my sock are wet from sweat after only an hour or so.

How can I solve this? Should I go sandals?

I think some of us just have to deal with it. I sweat just wearing socks around the house. I've heard some people use foot powder, but that just too annoying for me. At the end of the day its not really that big of a deal.

I only wear wool socks if I'm wearing any boot.

Try wearing actual adult boots and not desert combat boots. Failing that, wear wool socks.

I wear bedrocks year round, never looked back (except sometimes in snow I wish I had something different)

Can only second wool. Used to have really nasty sweat buildup in the past with cotton and the socks would be yellow and stinky after just a day, with merino I can wear the same pair several days before they even lightly smell. Even in peak summer thick wool socks are better even if it sounds counter-intuitive at first.
What also helps is walking barefoot more often (so that excess callus gets lost that way instead of ending up in the socks and fermenting there, and so that the toes can spread out more) plus having shoes that don't cramp the toes together, as this causes bad ventilation locally and friction leading to more callus buildup where you don't want it

Just started going in ice and snow in slowly increasing amounts in winter 2018/19/20 with my running sandals. It sucks until it doesn't is about all I have to say about it.

If you are crafty at all, you can always make yourself a decent pair of huarache style sandals on the cheap to try out for yourself. Just keep in mind that barefoot style /out/ing takes some leg work training and time getting use to.

buy better socks or start walking in trail shoes. if you are not a boomer, hiking boots are mostly overkill.

The funny part about being "barefoot" active is how many people tell me how much more dangerous it is or harder on my body etc.
This has been an 11+ year adventure and I am the best in shape I've been since I was a teen athlete.

Meanwhile people break their ankles and shins or tear their knees and calves and back up humping, tripping, having falls in clunky- ass goof boots (and none of them can even make it anywhere near as far, or fast as me either!).

Consider water shoes. Lightweight, breathable, and cheap but not very durable.

I have these Waldviertler zero heel shoes. Well made, sturdy leather, light, nothing to complain about the construction. But compare them to my super cushioned meindls and it's just crazy how much easier walking is with the meindls. It's like I'm slogging through mud all the fucking time in comparison.
