Default cold weather flying

Hi all,

My thread is either 8 months too late, or three months too early depending on how you look at it.

I'm looking for opinions on gear for cold weather flying, and high altitude flying, particularly as it relates to footwear. I'm trying to find a pair of boots which are warm and insulated, but also relatively low profile because i'm looking for rudder clearance. does anyone know of a good brand or specific boot?

thanks dudes.

Check out Thermacell heated insoles. You can get them at Cabela's. They have a remote control and I have never had them overheat. Several years ago, I also use Hotonics and at the #3 setting they never overheated my feet, however I did not like the batteries hanging form my boots.
