wear two layers....100% cotton on the inside or first layer to keep your feet dry, and then wool as the 2nd layer for the cushion...i do that at work and i will be doing that for snowboarding, and so far its wokring amazingly. my dad told me about it, he did that for 28 years fighting fire and never once had a foot problem.

i dont like the use of cotton i do usually wear sock linersthat wick away moisture. so is smartwool still the best or is there other good brands
