Is there such a thing as self-heating socks? Like, something like electric blankets, but portable and for feet? Alternately, what are the warmest slippers I can buy, like some special heat-conserving NASA slippers? I have low blood pressure and apparently shitty circulation and my feet are ALWAYS COLD. It's not that big of a problem during the summer, but now it's autumn, and I have the same cold that everyone I seem to know has, and my nose is runny and I am coughing and I would be so very insanely happy if I didn't have to constantly rescue my feet from the Land of Hypothermia.
Regular socks with double layers and wool socks don't really work. I need something xtra here. Help!
[ON EDIT: my google-fu indeed yielded some electric socks. Do they really work? If I accidentally step into a puddle of water in the bathroom while wearing them, will I get electrecuted? Is there a brand that is better than the others?]
[ON FURTHER EDIT: I don't understand how these battery powered socks work. Are there actually batteries around your toes? Can you feel them? How do you wear your shoes with them?]
