For cold weather non-stand hunting I dress in layers and that includes my feet.
My base is Cabela's Rimrock non-insulated Gore-tex hikers and I purchase them 1/2 size larger.
1) sock liner and merino wool socks (midweight or heavyweight) which works for about 75% of the conditions
2) sock liner and Santi 200 gram Thinsulate socks
3) sock liner and DUI 400 gram Thinsulate socks
4) gaiters
These socks are also great to use in a sleeping bag.
I will add, the Rimrock hikers require very little break-in.
