For really  cold below  20 Lacross Iceman with Fox River socks they are the warmest and most comfortable sock you can buy. They are very thick 80% wool and the rest nylon  . Its not very smart to wear Smartwool socks they dont  keep your feet warm.

Sorrel glacier xts when it's 10 or under. Whites or hiking boots depending.

Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in one's youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them.

I posted my schnee pac boots already but been using Kenetrek grizzlies late season and so far they seem as nice. I’d recommend  either! These are 13” which I wanted for late season snow
66” Northern Mist Superior
68” Howard Hill cheetah

For me when it gets below -15 or so it is bunny boots hands down. I usually plan on being out most of the day down to -25 or -30 on my trapline but sometimes its -50 which I dress for. Any colder depends on what I doing.. Before that its 6oo gram hiking boots and if we're into warm at about 20 then its just my 200 gram. I usually wear two pair of socks with my boots.

I used to use Cabela's rated (if I remember correctly) to -40 degrees. In recent years my diabetes has advanced to the point that my feet get cold no matter what I wear, so I just don't hunt in really cold weather.

I always “underboot” and use hand warmers/toe warmers and arctic shield boot covers over the top. Served me well and I’m a wussy when it comes to cold feet. Game changer. And/or lithium boot warmer inserts.

The Muck Artic Pro one half size bigger than normal for a thick sock and you are good to go and fully waterproof as well.

Later in the season I wear the Lacrosse 1600s.  They work pretty good down to 0, when it gets colder I wear the Baffins.  They aren't fun to walk in but they keep my feet pretty warm.
