how to handle wet feet

WET FEET

The military justifiably are on a quest to deal with the problem and it is a problem with wet feet. Soldiers are training in jungle conditions and their feet get wet. Soldiers fought in Viet Nam and they had wet feet. So the problem is not new and the fix seems almost impossible. Of course soldiers are also training in the arctic and they also experience wet feet. So the question becomes; what do we do about wet feet?

The answer I believe is Lamilite insulated socks!!!

Four years ago I could not make that statement, but now I am. It is basically impossible to not have wet feet to some degree. After all we know that feet generate more moisture than any part of the body. We know that feet in jungle situations are going to get further wet from the environment. We further know that any sock made from wool, cotton, silk etc. is going to get wet which is not the healthiest situation to put your feet in.

Since water is a constant as in, it is always there and the most efficient way to deal with it is not with the footwear but with socks. We know that the Lamilite insulated socks are like all Lamilite insulated products not affected by water. We know that they dry very quickly. While wearing them feet are wet as are the socks, but when we remove the socks our feet have the opportunity to dry and the socks will dry as well. This drying process for any other material used for socks does not happen except if a heating system is available versus putting Lamilite insulated socks in a Lamilite insulated sleeping bag where the heat naturally created by your body dries them. This will significantly reduce any chance of molds or other fungi from forming.

Of course if one is wearing Lamilite insulated boots they too will dry during the night in your sleeping bag. Of course the sleeping bag being used that has proven to drive moisture out of it is a Wiggy’s Lamilite insulated bag.

Thirty years ago I did not have the knowledge that I have today with respect to the performance of the Lamilite insulation when it comes to moisture in any of its forms or the variety of insulated products that are far better than any others made in the world. It is all because on the insulation. Probably the best way to describe Lamilite insulation is to say that it nullifies all negative effects caused by moisture in any of its forms.

It should also be remembered that Lamilite is a product manufactured with Climashield continuous filament fiber, the most efficient raw material ever made by man, and the material that makes not only all other synthetics obsolete but it also makes down a useless product except when it is still part of a living bird.
