    I.m a homeless person, I live out side in the high mountains of Colorado.
    These tips do work.
    Also if you have access to empty water bottles and a microwave, fill up the water bottles with water microwave them until they are so hot can barely touch them. then you can just put them in your sleeping bag, they will keep your feet warm all night.

    I spent a yr in Idaho and three in Germany when I was in the Military and working as a Lineman in freezing conditions in the open for most of the day,,every day. I found that putting a Pinch of Cayenne Pepper in the end of your socks in the morning increase blood circulation and keeps you feet warm Whether I was up on a powerline pole or in a manhole splicing cable in sub-freezing conditions

      That would be interesting to try. It would either warm your toes, or set them on fire. lol

    I've used tips number one and two and they definitely work! Always glad to see another one of these videos come up I'm going to try tip 3 and 4. Tip number for may be especially useful to me as I hunt with a recurve and use a finger glove. Well anyone who's used one knows that leather saps the heat from your hands fast! And because I shoot by feel I can't have a lot of bulk because get in the way. If I can't feel my bow then it changes the position of the bow in my hand and my two in accuracy at 20 yards becomes a shot in the dark unless I practice with those gloves and that bow. Good luck this year doll you bow Hunters I'm hoping for a miracle this year I haven't seen any good bucks and the properties I used to hunt have all been posted buy new owners. Lol damn the luck!

    I wear mittens because having fingers close together are warmer than gloves.
    I wear Tamarack snow boots with wool socks covered in good cotton socks that can actually get a little bit warm if active, so just hanging out they keep my feet warm.
    My only problem is keeping my eyes balls from shattering. I’ll need a pair of goggles for this winter.
    I can hang out in 12 degree snow for 15 hours without a problem. 🤙🏽

    Layer -- Use a thin merino sock as a base layer. It is NOT there to keep your feet warm but to keep them dry and wick away sweat. It works exactly like a base layer on your body does. Now add a thicker mid-layer sock or two on top.
    When I was in the Army we had Mickey Mouse boots (now they're white and called bunny boots) and those things really worked great.

      Powder yes, but I think the cotton balls might make you lose too much dexterity.

    I would like a link for the wrist wraps you talk about, please. Additionally if on the foot innersole or even the cardboard inersole putting a layer of a thicker aluminum foil on the underside will be adding that much more by reflecting the heat back and rejecting the cold out.

    What about using lambs wool instead of cotton balls between your toes? I know some hikers use it to prevent blisters.

    Cotton naturally attracts moisture.so cotton balls for insulation is a huge no no.cotton socks is out of the question either for the same reason

    Skip the cardboard, as soon as you stand up it is crushed, and stops insulating, Same with socks. Get 1/4 " closed cell foam, and make insoles. After a day of walking around it will crush and you have to replace it, but better than cardboard.

    What has helped me is buying an extra stick of unscented deodorant and apply to my feet and up my leg a little bit before I put my socks on... Stay’s nice and dry for them long walks in. And if it’s REAL cold, when I get in my stand I have some sock tops that I cut from a pair of heavy socks (The part thats stretchy and is normally around ur calf). I’ll take them and put over the toe of my boots, throw a hand warmer in each on the top of ur toes and I’m ready for an all day’r
