Recommend me some warm shoes.
 

I am looking to buy some warm shoes. It's like -3 here and my toes are freezing.
I need smart, shiny work shoes either in brown or black. Ideally slip on (not laces).
The most important thing is though that they keep my feet warm all day long.

Particularly want to hear from Russians, Baltic people and Canadians. Brits too.

Thanks.

dr martens?

The shoes arent going to do it...Ive tried

Try insulating insoles - they sell -35 degree rated ones at Amazon
Along with insoles - use wool socks - Ive even one so far as to have two thin pairs
on at a time when really bad temperatures - trick from the old hiking days

I have a pair of those thermal socks. The seem to make my toes colder if that's possible.
It's like the cold get's stuck inside and can't escape.

I have a SmartWool sweatshirt made from merino. It is very thin and easily the warmest piece of clothing I have.

you want some waterproofed shoes, not to keep your feet warm but to keep the moisture out & some nice thick woolly socks :thumbsup

Good luck with that cold weather, brrrrrr too cold for me!

I like cotton ankle socks with wool/wool blend over socks in the winter. I wear heavy 100% wool hiking socks on very cold winter days. And what was mentioned above, insulating innersoles -- Thinsulate being the best. I like the cushion gel type.

Also, inside the floor surface has a lot to so with cold feet. Concrete slab foundations are the coldest: Put a heavy rug under your feet. Old houses with floor drafts will make your feet feel cold. Wear pac-boots outside in the snow or in the very cold.

If you want a 'shiny leather compromise' -- https://www.ghbass.com/product/samue...gclsrc=a w.ds I have a pair of these for winter and air travel (they slip off in the security line) clunky looking and not "high fashion" -- warm and comfortable -- practical.

Good suggestions, thanks.

it was -12 yesterday and I was hanging in regular sneakers :)
Unless you have to hang outside for hours non stop.

Not even trolling. It's -11 celsius here and Uggs are the only thing that keeps us warm + not falling due to slippery icy streets

They make your toes colder because your socks are thicker making your shoes tighter on your feet.

You want a little bit of wiggle room in your shoes with those socks. I do a lot of ice fishing and suffer from cold feet. Ive learned that the warmest boots with the warmest socks will still get you cold feet if they fit too snug.
