[QUOTE="johngibbs222, post: 1757696, member: 49619"] I don't know if this little gem has been mentioned, I used to do wildfowling, in winter, on the coast of the UK and this is my tip. Get a good quality antiperspirant spray deodorant and spray on your feet and the backs of your knees before dressing. This will stop these parts sweating. It's the sweat that causes your feet to feel the cold, it's what it's meant to do. DO NOT EXPERIMENT IN SPRAYING THE ANTIPERSPIRANT OVER YOUR ENTIRE BODY sorry for shouting but you will immediately overheat after 100 yards of walking if you do this. To keep your hands warm, break the ice on water puddles on your way out and rinse your hands in the water then shake dry. You probably won't need gloves but I recommend them to stop your finger freezing to the trigger in below freezing environments. The cost of doing this is minimal try it once when your not hunting to prove it before committing yourself on a field trial. I used to wear one pair of silk socks with neoprene fisherman's bootees over them and under my waders. [/QUOTE]
