Since i discovered i really like running when its raining, but hate feeling of wet socks, what would you recomend? Are there some waterproof / neoprene socks or that would be a really bad idea?

I usually run mostly on road plus a bit of gravel, else i would alrrady get a pair of something like hoka speedgoats or similar.

Rubbing vaseline all over your feet, including between your toes, can help avoid blistering when feet get wet. I also noticed that when wearing compression socks, blistering is basically never an issue (but those don't make sense for everyone).
