My OH uses JCB socks these days, he works in and out of a cold factory as a labourer and never contains of cold feet these days, if you dont mind what socks you wear have you tried fluffy socks? Like ones you can buy as a pack out of the likes of home bargains and b&ma they keep my feet nice and toasty when I'm out and about xx

Neoprene! Over your normal socks and under your boots (you may need slightly bigger boots if you wear close fitting ones - mine fit under my wellies, but my wellies are quite loose). You can get them from diving and sailing shops (and Amazon). I just have neoprene toe warmers, but you can get full socks too.

Hi I was in Lidl or Aldi the other day and saw nice comfortable thick socks labeled "work socks" they felt nice and looked decent quality.

Since being diagnosed with a failed thyroid and taking Thyroxine, my hands and feet have been nice and warm - I wear sandals year round.
I remember sitting, about three days after starting the supplement, feeling as though my hands and feet were immersed in bowls of warm water. All the tension I had been feeling just faded away it was a lovely feeling.
