Same here. Once I get the cold toe problem solved then I've got this winter cycling thing licked. This is my second winter of riding. And this year the problem that stands out is the cold toes. Last year was choosing the right snow tire. For me it's the Hakka 294. But this year we've had temps in the single digits, which is no problem. But then we had some sub-zero stuff. Which my feet really felt that. I did find this link which seems to have some merit to it.

I tried the bread bag trick. It kept my feet warm, but, the one sock buried in the plastic bags were a little damp when I arrived at work. I also found these.

I'm going to wait till I get more feedback on these until I decide whether or not to get them.
But, I was looking at the heated socks on Amazon. And they had mixed reviews on them. A lot of people complained about the battery holder being a big inconvenience.
Another thing I'm considering is the "Toasty Feet" Insoles. They have had good comments on those. Walmart has them for about $13. But seeing as how the cold season is winding down in these parts, I'll wait till next year to field test all of those things.
