Deer season is in full swing, and temperatures are dropping every day. It\u2019s important to ensure you\u2019re adequately dressed, including your feet.<\/p>\n

With long hours of hiking, hanging out in tree stands and ground blinds in your future, keeping your toes toasty warm will make your outdoor excursion more comfortable and bearable. Don\u2019t let cold feet send you home prematurely before your hunt is deemed successful. Below you\u2019ll find a handful of ways to keep your feet and toes warm so you can stay focused all deer season long.<\/p>\n

Avoid Sweaty Socks
\n<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The number one culprit for freezing feet is sweat. If hiking to your tree stand or blind takes more than 5 or 10 minutes, which is often the case when hunting on public land, and you\u2019re wearing thick socks in insulated boots, chances are your feet will start sweating like crazy! Avoid this issue by wearing a lighter pair of gym socks. Cotton material is fine for the hike, but you\u2019ll want to pack a pair or two of insulating woolen socks in a ziplock baggie. Once you reach your stand or blind, change out of your sweaty gym socks and put your wool ones on. Your boots will be nice and warm from your hike, and you\u2019ll be able to start your hunt off on the right foot: warm and dry!<\/p>\n

Buy the Best Boots
\n<\/strong><\/h2>\n

It is well worth the investment to buy the best-insulated boots that you can afford for your specific hunting trip. Take a look at the type of hunting you\u2019ll be doing and what the weather and temperatures will be before you pull the trigger. There is a wide range in quality and price when it comes to hunting boots, so you\u2019ll need to find what best fits your budget (and your feet!).<\/p>\n

Consider buying your boots in a half to a full size bigger than what you usually wear to allow room for extra bulk like socks or foot warmers. Even the additional air space is a good insulator for keeping your feet warm. Before you buy, make sure to try on the boots with multiple sock layers and walk around. Is it comfortable? Too loose? Too tight? Make any necessary adjustments from there.<\/p>\n
