I've tried double wool socks and 1000gram thinsulate boots. i suppose I could get those chemical heating packets for each trip.
I only have pushed it down to 18F or so. Below that, I'll wuss out and take the train and subway. For my feet, I usually wear two wool socks, shoes and shoe covers. It will get me by but my feet can and wiil get cold later on like you...
Edit: I started using a pair of Sidi winter shoes that I bought used from a friend a while ago last winter. They are not bad. But could try them with the shoe covers when its gets really cold next tme. Only minor complaint is that the top velcro strap on one shoe is a little weak and can come loose sometimes.
