Cold Feet

Post by seb421 »

No not the old tv series im talking cold feet cold feet

Going to try these out for the bike, had a few things from Matt Hayes TF Gear and the quality has been good

Hands are sorted with Heated Grips and Muff's but the toes don't half get cold some times, worth a punt at 15 quid delivered

I have rechargeable batteries already so can swap them over every other day

If they turn out to be dog sh1t I'll just wear them as some sort of over socks

I suffer from Raynauds Disease so have looked into heated socks in the past (not for biking, at home) and have never found any that have mainly good reviews.

I'll be selfish and say go for it and let me know if they are actually any good :lol: :thumbup:

Just put Vick's Vapour Rub in your socks.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

Seal Skinz waterproof socks with a thin pair underneath are pretty good.
