Thanks for the info. In temps around 15* and colder my issue is my feet sweat when I'm walking to the stand. Then an hour or so later my toes are cold...after about 3 hours I'm done. The boot blankets seem to work best for me. My feet still get cold, but not "make me leave" cold. I have carried my heavy boots & socks in with me and put them on before climbing into the stand. It works, but it's a pain in the butt!

Have you ever tried socks liners? The sock liners wick the sweat away from your skin and your feet stay warmer. I use the sock liners in my waders and I find my feet usually do not get cold.
Are they expensive?

They run about $10-$15 depending on the brand and where you get them.

Thanks, I will look into them.
