Don't let cold feet stop your winter fun. If you like to spend time skiing, snowboarding, hiking, hunting, ice fishing, snowmobiling or just work in a cold environment, you know that keeping feet warm can be a challenge. There are a number of solutions to the problem of cold feet. Proper footwear is a good place to start, boots or shoes that leak are to be avoided. Also boots that are too tight restrict blood circulation, causing feet to get cold faster. This presents problems in boots that need to be tight like ski and snowboard boots. Ski boots are notoriously known for being tight and cold. As ski boots get older they begin to lose their insulating value due to liner compression. The need to keep feet warm while skiing and boarding is imperative to muscle function and response time. Warmer muscles work better and faster. That is why baseball pitchers and relief pitchers are often see wearing warm up jackets when they are standing around spitting and patting each other. On-snow pros know that warm feet make a world of difference. Just a couple of degrees can turn a great day of skiing into a chilling event. Ski instructors rely on various styles of boot heaters to keep their feet warmer. Warm feet means the difference between pleasure and misery, winning the race or dropping out or getting frostbite. Don't get frostbite. Frost bite never really goes away, plus you can lose toes or other handy things for counting. So here are some tips on keeping your feet warm this winter or summer depending on where you happen to live or visit.
