Yes, liners help wicking moisture and make for more warmth without adding bulk.
Cotton sucks, adding another layer doubly so.....for the same reasons it doesn't make good hunting wear.


I saw that Bass Pro has these silk sock liners and Gander MT has some made from 52% polypropylene, 28% merino wool, 18% stretch nylon, and 2% Lycra. Is there a preferred material for the liners?

LOL I just remembered that I wore a pair of panty hose back when I was 13/14 and hunting in cold weather. Seemed to work to wick away moisture if I remember right smile
