You can try boot warmer (blanket) insulators that zip over a hiking boot. A thin pair of polypropylene liner socks (underneath a pair of winter socks) will help wick moisture away from your feet. Wearing pantyhose will help thwart off the cold.

Try to stay well fed out in the cold. Eat something like a candy bar before you get cold. Once you get cold...it's usually too late to eat something to keep warm.

Try tightening and relaxing each muscle in your body. Start by wiggling your toes...and then proceed upwards in your body.

My main remedy for cold toes: Is just getting up and walking around.

Be aware of frostbite and the signs. Don't ever let your toes freeze-up like hard rock candy.
