I'm with Alan - boots don't breathe that well.

One thing I do know is that dry feet are happy feet - which is why when my feet are feeling damp I'll stop and swap socks - at least the outter woolies - the synthetic liners don't retain moisture so generally they'll go back on after a 10 or 15 minute "foot airing" session. If there's a stream present I'll give 'em a soak and a wring (what the heck, the woodland creatures walk in the creeks) and then dangle them from my backpack, drying in the sun, until they are once again pressed into service.

Note - this procedure also gives a nearly 50 year old geezer the chance to take a 10-15 minute break every so often in the bargain!
