Greg:

I've been looking at Kokotat Dry suits, and remember that their first iterations of the Goretex socks were bulky. I preferred the latex socks when I rented a suit (which was/is totally fantastic and the best garment a kayaker could ever purchase). Why did you get the Goretex socks? Do they fit OK? Since Goretex needs to be clean in order to pass vapor, will the socks stay clean enough to retain their breathable function?
