Interesting solution to cold feet. That (cold feet) is the limiting factor for my commutes. I bought some shoe covers but they didn't MTB shoes I bought to commute in. May try some vapor barrier socks (bread bags).

I haven't commuted since last Monday. I also got cold hands but I've been putting a gore tex shell mitten over my lobster gloves and carrying hand warmers. My personal record is 8 degrees but I'm looking to go for a new record this year!
