Cold Weather Socks
« on: August 09, 2016, 07:42:57 AM »
I often hunt in very cold weather (stand hunting) and have used the usual heavy wool socks over a polyester sock liner with 400 gram thinsulate boots. This works ok but my feet still get cold sometimes. Any suggestions for a better warmer sock?  (non electric) If you still prefer wool, what brand do you like?  Thanks

No matter what boots and socks sitting in the snow in zero degrees with wind chills your toes after an hour.

If you have some kind of Alaska Pac-type snow boot, use those with some foot warmer packs. Bigger boots don't make any difference stand hunting. Be comfortable.

Haven't found a sock yet that will keep my feet warm when sitting a stand or glassing. My feet are messed up from rheumatism real bad so the heat makes a huge difference for me when out in the woods.
