Manxbiker 0 Posted March 4, 2011 I bought several pairs from the sport shop. They're just football socks but they keep me warm and people think I'm sporty when they see lots of football socks hanging on the line. (How can someone with so many football socks still be so fat?)

bedfordbiker 0 Posted March 5, 2011 Are you sure its not just down to the boots you have? 'cause I only wear normal socks and my feet have never been cold, even in the minus temperatures! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
XS1100 0 Posted March 5, 2011 Make sure your boots are not to tight and that your feet have room to move.then use a couple plastic bags over your socks,Your street cred gose down the pan but you will have cosy feet and dry cus leather boots leak when it bins it down.
