RidingMatthew, you didn't ask for how to keep feet warm, but I'd like to offer what I discovered. I got shoes that are too big for me so I can fit thick socks in. I don't even usually use thick socks. I wear regular (wool) socks. Having the extra space in the toe box seems to make more difference than anything. I wrapped duct tape around the fronts of my shoes. I was fine. It's colder here than there.
