Certainly people have different levels of comfort with their feet. For example, the dude on Dual Survival goes barefoot in extremely different climates.
On the coldest days, I wear Mickey Mouse military boots. This has to be a sitting situation as any excessive walking will overheat my feet. Plus, they are heavy.
Otherwise, I wear socks made of various material types without caring which type I am putting on my feet. I only care about thickness. Thicker and/or multiple pairs for colder weather. I generally hunt IL which can be cold. But, I am going home at night and able to recover in a warm house.
Although I have no worldly experience with this as does buffybr above, I believe the choice of socks should be seriously considered when hunting remotely or in the arctic as the condition of your feet (possibly life) depends upon their coverings.
