Default Trousers under waders

Not sure about the title or where I'm posting this but....has anyone found a satisfactory way of tucking your trousers into your socks when wearing waders?
Whatever I do seems to cause chafing at some point on my legs. I guess thermal underwear would solve the problem but my neighbours would think I was a little odd if I left the house wearing them!

Take the thermals with you Phil and get changed at the Water.


Cheers

This time of the year Simms under wader fleeces, they're like jogging bottoms ... your neighbours will think you're on a fitness kick!

In reasonable conditions, I wear standard combats under my waders, fleece lined combats if it's cold and fleece undertrousers if it's really bad
Breathable waders for normal
Neoprenes if it's really cold

Phil, at this time of year, I wear thermals, and insulated trousers, and neoprene waders. not joking.
I just tuck the trousers into my ankle socks then put my stocking foot waders on, then I wear a pair of neoprene socks over the booties then my wading boots.
Sounds a lot of faffing I know, but I am as comfortable as hell, and warm.
Cold and I don't mix, you may have gathered that.
Steven.

Never had a pair of the neoprene socks but looked at some Vision ones in the week and nearly bought. Didn't realise they went over the stocking foots, was thinking they had to go under
