Yep I always wear socks. Light socks in the summer while fishing and wool socks in november when duck hunt. Make sure you spray out the boots when your done to get out any gravel. I haven't had a stocking foot go bad on me yet. If you are real concerned I believe they make a thin sock that goes over the outside of the stocking foot for added protection. Honestly I will never wear neoprenes again way to heavy and the boots suck. With my breathables I run Simms boots.
