Mat, for winter, down to -20˚F, I oversize my shoes by +2 or 3 and wear boiled wool socks (multiple pair, as needed, also sized up a bit). This will get a bit trickier as I put in the leather insole which takes up room, but the essentials to any winter system are: circulation, insulation, breathability, wind blocking. Most people botch the circulation because they add too much insulation without enough room to allow for it.
For a shoe, I use Xeros Coalton: https://xeroshoes.com/shop/shoes/casual-shoes/coalton/ Boiled wool socks: https://www.sweaterchalet.com/quality-woolens/wool-socks/ 3-ply heavy that I use: https://www.sweaterchalet.com/dachstein-woolwear/dw-5115-adult-socks/#cc-m-product-11653655331 I then add in a ventile gator as needed (completely blocks the wind, keeps in warmth, still breathes). Works great with knickers/breeks. With abandon, Patrick -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
