I’ve had a pair of Arctic Shield blankets for years and have had outstanding results. I can wear uninsulated boots hiking in and have the blankets strapped to my pack and even in the coldest temps (single digits here) I can stay on stand in comfort all day.
This has been experience with the Arctic shields as well. I wear 400gr Crispi’s in, loosen them up a bit once in the stand, zip on the AS’s with a chemical hand warmer or two tossed in, and my feet are great all day in the coldest conditions.
