Quick question.
I recently bought Nepal Evo Boots from La Sportiva. Let me tell you, they are amazing! I love that they are light and have a little more flex around the ankle since they are leather. They also have the same stiff sole and welts like plastic boots. The problem is, last time I went winter mountaineering (Drift Peak) my feet got really cold! It was a very cold day, below zero for sure once wind chill was added. I wore two layers of socks, but that did not help. I acutally think the first layer maybe was too tight and was constricting the blood flow. I did not tie the boots extra tight, but they were still fairly cold.
Any suggestions? I love these boots and fear that I have some bad circulation. Any socks out there that would be good for keeping my feet warm. Should I wear looser socks? I have even hear of electric socks (a little absurd)!? Do these work. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
