Black Waterproof Knitted Nylon Socks (Konugo Alternative)
Product Video
Overview
These black waterproof socks are a konugo socks alternative for wet walks, stream edges, and muddy camps.
The socks use knitted nylon, so they feel like normal socks when you pull them on. However, they are built to help reduce water reaching your feet. As a result, they suit damp mornings, light rain, and quick splashes.
They work best in shallow water and on wet ground. However, water pressure increases with depth. Therefore avoid long, deep wading and standing still in fast water. Also step around sharp shells, thorns, and metal edges.
Choose your size from the EU bands listed below. A snug fit helps reduce rubbing inside footwear. If you sit between sizes, size up for comfort in thicker shoes.
Wear them inside footwear. This protects the fabric from sharp stones and grit. Also keep toenails well groomed. Avoid sharp edges, because they can damage the inner layer.
If you want simple wet weather coverage without bulky gear, this konugo socks alternative gives you a compact option. It also packs down small, so it is easy to keep in a day bag.

Size Guide
Measure your foot length first, then choose the size that matches your longest foot.
- Place a sheet of paper on a hard floor, against a wall.
- Stand on the paper with your heel lightly touching the wall.
- Mark the tip of your longest toe with a pencil.
- Measure from the wall edge to the toe mark in centimetres.
- Measure both feet and use the longer measurement.
Match your foot length to the closest size range:
- S (EU 37–39): foot length about 23.0–24.5 cm.
- M (EU 40–42): foot length about 25.0–26.5 cm.
- L (EU 43–46): foot length about 27.0–29.5 cm.
- XL (EU 47–50): foot length about 30.0–32.0 cm.
Fit tips: If you sit between sizes, size up for thicker socks or roomier boots. Choose the smaller size for a snug fit in tighter footwear.
Returns Note
For hygiene reasons, we can’t accept returns or exchanges for socks that have been opened or tried on due to wrong size. Please measure your foot length and use the guide before ordering. If the item is faulty or not as described, we’ll help under your consumer rights.

- One pair of black waterproof socks.
** Please note we do not recommend wearing these all day, only when required to keep your feet dry.
How to use + care + safety
Put the socks on over clean feet, and then put on your shoes or boots straight away. This helps protect the fabric. After use, rinse off grit, and then hand wash under 40°C. Air dry away from direct heat.
Check the socks before each trip. Stop using them if you see cuts or thinning. Also trim and file toenails, because sharp edges can puncture the fabric from the inside.
