Best socks for warmth in waders

I wore 2 pair of the darn tough over the calf hunting socks all season. Feet were ice cold everytime. Anything I should look at before next season? I used to not care but I now loathe having cold feet. 
Some of the ones I'm looking at:
Kuiu
First Lite
Wetsox

What is the boot situation on your waders?
If insulated you’re probably wearing too thick a sock

Don't have a clue how they would work in waders, but the foot warmer pads work great in ski boots - they are made to work in low oxygen environments. You might check into them...
But too many socks can impede the blood circulation in your feet, causing them to be cold - like trying to fit a size 10 foot in a size 9 shoe.

Spray your feet with unscented anti-perspirant,let it dry before putting socks on.I like merino wool socks the best.

I use polypropylene liner socks with merino wool over them . Never had a problem . 30 years and still have all my toes .

Get waders with heavy insulated boots, wear moisture wicking liner socks and thick wool socks (I like Smartwool).

MB is right. Either more insulation is needed in boots or you’re sweating in the socks and making your feet cold

Took me years to figure this out. I wear thin dress socks with 1200 g insulated boots. My feet almost never get cold.

Not sure. Waders are on their last leg but they are the drake insulated from 4 years ago.
Contemplating buying the Sitka just for the zipper

One good pair of Marino socks and call it done.
Bet your feet are sweating unless you are hunting very cold temps.

It’s typically when I’m standing in flooded timber in 30 degree weather and when I’m in a layout kayak blind

I wear 3 different brand socks, all merino wool. All work.
Head to wool underwear and layers keep me warm/warmish.
OP....you might want to look into some heated socks if it's a problem.
