Like timbercruiser said, I use anti-persperant ' Also in real cold weather I have silk liners, then my wool socks. When I get up in my stand I put on my Artic Shield boot blankets and am very toasty. Cabella's has them and from what I can tell they have draw strings. Mine are about 4yrs old and have velcro, which makes a noise taking them off. But at that time who cares. Just don't do like I did and wear them when you get down ,( a little excited)I did to go track my deer and stepped on a branch and put a hole in it. Nothing a little duct tape couldn't fix.
