Having the right gear for the right conditions is key at any time of the year but the margin for error during the colder seasons is much tighter.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><strong>A good dry top\/trouser combo or dry suit.<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>Keeping dry inside makes keeping warm that much easier. Even some of the two piece systems (dry top and dry trousers) available are getting close to being as good as a dry suit. Price is sometimes much better as is the flexibility of the system.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Solid footwear. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Wet river banks and slippery rocks are not a great combination if you have dodgy footwear. A good pair of river shoes or boots are worth there weight in gold. I&#8217;m still currently using <a href=\"http:\/\/www.unsponsored.co.uk:\/press\/?p=1292\" title=\"Five Ten (5.10) Water Tennies\">Five Ten Water Tennies<\/a> and the Palm Gradient boots from last year. Footwear with a good sole will also help insulate your feet from the cold ground.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.unsponsored.co.uk\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/DSC01609.jpg\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"aligncenter\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>Good socks.<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>Conventional socks only really work if you have a dry suit with built in dry socks.  I tend to wear ski socks when I have my drysuit on.  If you don&#8217;t have a dry suit there are alternatives that will work when wet. You could wear a pair of neoprene boots but I have found that although they are great for keeping your feet warm the ones I have used have never had the greatest amount of grip.  I much prefer using a combination of a good set of footwear (see above) and a thin neoprene sock. Various manufacturers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.unsponsored.co.uk\/press\/sandiline-neoprene-socks\/\" target=\"_blank\">make thin 3 and 4mm thick neoprene socks<\/a> that can help keep your feet warm even when wet.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Base layers.<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>I love <a href=\"http:\/\/www.unsponsored.co.uk:\/press\/?p=2602\" title=\"The Power of the Merino\">merino kit<\/a> &#8211; it&#8217;s warm when wet and doesn&#8217;t smell!
