Just wanted to throw out a positive review for these. I got a pair for Christmas this year and finally put them to use over the weekend. It was near 60* in VA, but the trail I chose still had a significant amount of snow. I ended up post-holing and slipping and sliding for a good 4 hours before I got to a clearer section. My set up:

thin liner sock
gore-tex sock over the liner
Heavy smartwool hiking sock over that
Merrell Moab Ventilators.

When I was finished, the shoes and outer socks were soaking, but my inner liner sock was only damp with sweat. I thought the gore-tex socks breathed as well as could be expected. All in all, a successful test.

I have a pair too and they do work pretty good.
