I hate the cold. If it were up to me, I’d be living on some beach among palm trees and balmy temperatures. Unfortunately, I reside in an area perpetually locked in this annoying cycle known as “seasons.”

I do my best to bundle up during these cold months. Layer upon layer is applied to my body in an effort to combat the harsh reality of winter, but despite my efforts, the cold always finds a way in — through my feet. I have this same problem year after year, and yet I have never done anything to help my poor little toes find the warmth they deserve — until now.

If you are looking to start 2018 off on the right foot, you might want to make sure that foot isn’t completely numb. Learn how to keep feet warm in winter weather with a few of my favorite tips for toasty toes.

If you’re anything like me, you probably own an unnecessary amount of socks, especially right after Christmas, but are they the right fabric? Cotton absorbs sweat quickly, but drys very slowly, so if you’re looking for something a little more reliable, Merino wool is the way to go. Keeping those tootsies dry is essential if you want to avoid losing heat through your feet. Plus an extra pair of socks never hurt anyone, right?

You can pick up a 3-pack of these cold-defying wool socks for $14 to $24 on Amazon. You may also want to take a look at some of our favorite winter boots to put those wool socks into.

Warm feet are the goal, but moisture is often the deterrent. I mentioned that you’ll want to avoid cotton socks for that very reason, but if you’re looking to take it a step further, you’ll need a pair of waterproof socks to avoid wet, cold feet. Though this pair of socks is completely waterproof, they still remain breathable so you won’t be stuck sweating uncontrollably within a foot prison.

You can pick up this pair of these socks on Amazon for as low as $18, or take a look at some Gore-Tex options for the ultimate waterproof experience. You could also just wrap plastic bags around your feet if you get truly desperate.
