    Woolie Boolies are great, warm but not waterproof. Sealskins if you're looking for waterproof.

    Neoprene shoe covers work well. Not sure about neoprene socks though, sounds a bit sweaty to me?

    Sealskinz Mid Thermal Merino ones with Enduro Baabaa Merino Wool Socks underneath. Toasty feet. If my feet are still cold then I can put a pair of normal Enduro socks on too :lol:
