Just wanted to let y'all know that new vids will be rolling out over the next couple of days :) In the meantime, thanks a bunch for taking the time to watch, comment, share, and subscribe... it is truly appreciated my friends! -John
LOL! That's very innovative!
Thanks.
Aren't there good footware built to keep your feet warm? I mean you're showing us something that if it does improve the shoes, then the shoe manufacturers should do it.
Test Channel Manufactures don't want to do anything more than they have to. It costs money to do these things and that cuts into their profits. I also doubt boot maunfactures actually make the insoles, they likely buy them from someone else, premade.
Premade, yes, of course - to specifications of the manufacturer. They could spec it to do something like this.
Test Channel Snowmobile boots... It would be retarded to make regular hiking boots come standard with heavy insulation. It's not as if people only wear thier boots in winter.
Glad you kept the vid short, most would have stretched it to half an hour.
Wow. Short, concise and very useful. Thanks John.
+Survival On Purpose Thanks my brother... much appreciated : )
for all of those wondering if it works yes it does!!
Easy to make and works well, as I can state from my own experience.
The rest of the shade can be used to fabricate a sit-pad and / or a cozy for your pot/cup.
Some of the special made Alaskin boots had something similar. Having chronically cold feet I tried wrapping space blankets around & in between wool socks & that helped a LOT. Thermal "wicking socks" a must in sub zero temps. Oversized boots helped too so toes could move/wiggle inside boots also.
In between wool socks? Means 1 layer of wool socks outside, followed by a space blanket, then followed by another layer of wool socks inside?
Tried this the last two days and it definitely works. I had better results putting the reflector on the insole the second day instead of under the insole the first day.
Good tip and makes sense as it would help hold heat closer to one's feet. Probably worth trying each way as sometimes folks need special insoles to feel comfortable -- perhaps that's why John suggested putting them under the insoles in the first place? For me it would probably depend on the shoes.
Toasty/dry... & not stinky/wet feet... Now, that's what I need!
You win, yet again... with your info. Thanks for another great tip!
Great trick!
And thanks for NOT calling it a hack
+Haoko Thanks man!
where the hell are you?!
.... what the heck is a hack anyway! I woke up one morning and "hack" was everwhere.
Hack Hack Hack !!!
hacking a tree right now!
Very good! Reminds me of the tricks we used in the army. Thank you!
John- I haven't taken the time to tell you how glad I am to see your videos coming up in my feed on a regular basis again! Your tips are always helpful, and this is no exception. Definitely trying this one out!
Sweet! Gonna try this. My feet tend to stay warm *enough* with the other tricks I use. Even below freezing. But this is great for keeping warm while hiking. Thanks
John, I really wish you would post more videos like you used to do... My grandchildren and I really enjoyed watching them together. We are still subscribed to your channel, and I look every day to see if it lists having any new posts. Come on John, get back in the groove! Thanks, Don
This is perfect for me! I have diabetic neuropathy in both feet, which is basically nerve damage that makes my feet “numb”, and I can’t feel heat, cold, or painful stimuli. This has resulted in a 2nd degree burn on one foot, simply caused by too hot of water in the bath tub. The neuropathy also prevents me from using commercial toe warmers, battery heated socks, and such. As I mentioned before, I can’t feel cold either, which could result in frostbite, in snow, ice, and cold weather in general. But the reflective nature of these cutout insoles should keep my feet at LEAST above dangerous temps, and prevent foot damage. I still won’t be able to actually “feel”any damage that could occur, and will require regular visible inspection(which should be performed with diabetes,anyway), but the risk of OVER heating by mechanical means will be zero. Thanks for the tip!! I’ll let you know how it works out!! Cheers!🍻
Great hack! I use mylar pads inside my winter hammock set up. It works great and allows me to go without expensive and bulky under quilts on my winter backpacking trips.
I always hated winter and having cold feet, not anymore, i do this with my boots and shoes, it works great! Thank you!
I tried this and my feet caught on fire 🔥🔥🔥
Awesome idea bro. I'll be trying that out. Thanks.
+KdawgCrazy Thanks buddy. Hope all's been well over your way brother!
That really works.
if you don't have a sun shade you can make insoles from molar snack bags.
They were expendable
This is fantastic! I live in Canada and you can actually buy insoles that are insulated and padded with that reflective surface, but my boots are a bit tight this year and I have been stumped as to how I can get a little extra heat into them. Fantastic idea thank you so much for sharing
Masterful! I'll definitely be using this method. Thank you for the knowledge!
Great idea. My feet tend to get cold easy.
+Cr0cket20 I hear you there man. Hope it's not 'cuz we're getting older... er, uh... wiser I mean ;)
Great one John, now do one for cooling in the tropics!
Ps, ice cubes don't last very long...
Andy's Fishing Same thing but in reverse. Place your flip flop on the shiny foil material, cut out the shape, cut from the front to the toe bar thongy/thingy and place it on the flipflop shiny side down to reflect the heat back out of your body. Probably.
Andy's Fishing *Wha-Sheesh !!*
One on cooling is definitely needed. I live in India, and the weather is already touching 41° C/ 108° F in Mumbai.
I spend a lot of time outdoors and cold feet is something I've never found a practical solution for. Great idea here! Thanks for sharing!
That's bloody clever! I think I'll be putting this to use this Wisconsin winter.
I like the idea. One thing to watch out for is this working too well. If your feet sweat in the cold weather through physical exertion and you end up staying outside for whatever reason, it is likely your socks will be wet from sweat. Make sure to carry some additional dry socks. Lack of movement and wet socks will lead back to cold feet.
That's sensible!
Thanks,
Clark
Brilliant!!! I did this for my jock ! Big Jim and the twins now stay mice a cozy!
Great idea! I was thinking about trying out winter backpacking for the first time this winter, and I'm glad I saw this beforehand!
+MrPatagonicus Right on man! Nothin' like being out there in the winter... everything is just so peaceful... and of course you don't have nearly as many people out and about. Hope you have an awesome time on your trip!
Happy Trails... -John
fantastic! Now that's a great tip.
Save the remaining sun shade for future projects (pot cozy,sitting/sleeping pad). That's my tip of the week ; )
+CampfireTalk Thanks buddy! Now off to work on a couple of projects that you just added to my to-do list... ;)
Hope you and yours have a very Merry Christmas my brother!
CampfireTalk pot cozie lol I'll take one!
excellent
Great tip John! Those sunshades make pretty good sleeping mats in the summertime as well!
+Ride Alongside Thanks my friend! 100% agreed on the sleeping mat thing btw :)
IntenseAngler
Your subscribers miss you man.
I hope all is well with you and your loved ones. Please make more videos soon John.
nicely done video. it's mid summer here in lower Alabama and I can almost feel the cold air. I watched the video even though we rarely have sub-freezing weather throughout the whole day in our Winters and generally have no problem with cold toes.
Great tip! So simple yet very inexpensive and effective!
Hi there John! I just gotta say how much I miss seeing new videos from you. I always find myself coming back to your videos for advice before I go on a camping trip. I hope all is well and we hope to hear from you! :)
@Wowee2012 Hey there my friend! Thanks for stopping by and leaving such a kind and supportive comment... I truly appreciate that! Really glad to hear that the videos have helped in some way on your adventures :) Will be rolling out some fresh content here very soon btw :)
All the best! -John
It's been over 4 months, John... miss ya!
Great tip! I'm a cobbler and I work on shoes every day. So always cool to hear of a new trick.
A simple, but outstanding idea. Thank you for that cheap, but great trick.
My pleasure David. Thanks for taking the time to watch and leave such a generous compliment... it's much appreciated.
A trick I've been using is to use the Styrofoam that makes up those trays that meat comes on in the supermarket. No point in using the sunshade as the silver needs space to reflect heat.
Cut the meat by tracing the insole as in the video, but make it about a half inch larger.. Then cut out the larger shape, and then cut in towards the actual size.. so that it looks kinda like wings.. This allows the tray to cover the sides a bit too as each fin will take the shape of the boots upper, but only a half inch or so Sadly they don't last longer than a weeks worth of wear but you can make a bunch up ahead of time and they weigh practically nothing
It works great. The second pair I cut larger so it would climb up the sides of the toe box.
John, was there that noticeable of a difference? I've got snowboard boots I'm looking to do this to rather than blow a ton of money on electronic heaters. Thanks!
it does work rly :)
Simple, effective AND even better, it's cost efficient! This right here is why you are at the top of my subscribed to list. Keep this train rolling brother. All the best.
Sometimes the simplest stuff makes the most sense! Great tip!
Another Great and Informative and very useful Video.
Ntense 🎣 Āngler Rocks!
+CallMeDean ChuckDean Thanks brother... appreciate that!
Thanx for this cool, uh... I mean HOT Trick :-)
What a great idea! Love these simple yet ingenious tips. Thanks!
Wish I knew this on my wedding day.😏😂😳
Ha ha
But it's always flip-flop weather come the divorce. 'Course, that's all you'll be left with but, what the hey, celebrate the positives, right? Nice one!
jeff arp. .i presume you took your boots off going to bed.................
😂
Why was it frosty..., just kidding...Congratulations.
this is awesome! gonna have to try it!
+Roberto Maldonado Right on. Hope it works out great for ya man!
Ingenious! I tried it and it works, even though this video is 7 years old. Brilliant. ❤
Thank you! I'm so happy to hear that this tip worked for you :) I really appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment... it means a lot!
I work outdoors and spend a lot of time in sub-freezing temps. This trick works well for me, even though my feet do perspire a lot. Good tip for those that haven't heard of it.
I am 12 years old in this winter I am trying to make money by shoveling snow and I will definitely be trying this out and also do you think this would work with one of those blankets you get after I run on a cold day that reflect your body heat?
+Pat Ek Hope this helps keep your feet nice and toasty on those cold days while you're out there shoveling buddy. Good job on taking the initiative to get out and do some good honest work by the way... very cool to hear. And yeah, one of those blankets should work just fine for ya man :) All the best... -John
IntenseAngler k
Pat Ek yes, you can use one of those like a poncho by cutting a hole for your head and wearing it between layers as you shouldn't let the mylar come in direct contact with your skin.
Pat Ek no because that material is way to thin and will just bunch up into a ball eventually. good idea but the windshield sun blocker is a lot thicker.
try buying ( Micky boots ).
they are used in extremely cold weather areas of the planet. Martie on the TV show "Mountain Men " uses them in Alaska.
also, you can buy electric warming wool socks that take a 9 volt or two.
between those and the Micky boots you should have no issue down too around 30 below zero.
if it is colder than that where you live, MOVE !!!
Sock bread bag sock.
Very nice sir !! Greetings from Amsterdam. . .its finely getting colder . Heel veel groeten !!
+Gr0tebr0er Thank you very much my friend! Heel veel groeten to you in Amsterdam! :)
+IntenseAngler Tried it in -30 c in Finnish forest, works :)
Thank you, this also helps me with my Military Speedlace combat leather boots, during fall and winter airsoft games.
Thanks. I'm outside everyday all winter so I appreciate the tip.
nice life hack....shared this one on my facebook
+swany Hey, thanks a bunch my friend... really appreciate that! All the best... -John
+swany Me, too! Thanks, IA.
Me too
Thank you so very much for this tip !
@KingdomChicc My pleasure :) Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment... it's much appreciated!
ATB
KingdomChicc jon where are you
Thank you for another awesome tip John! I will definitely share this video with my coworkers tomorrow!
Thank you. Love the winter woods, cold feet not so much.
Another good tip is to not tie your shoelaces too hard and to ALWAYS have warm feet when you first put your shoes on. If you put on your boots with cold feet, you are are very likely to keep being cold even if you are warm in the rest of your body.
+Davidow1 Great advice on both counts my friend.
Gonna have 2 frosty footprints on my windscreen now👍🏻😂😂
Thank you, I can't wait to try this. Wish I knew it years ago.
Oh wow. I love this idea.
Where did you go? Are you going to ever make more videos? Miss them
I wonder why the boot manufacturers never thought of this? LOL...
+mobiltec They'd have to charge you more than $!!!!
+makrsk09 They are already charging WAY more than any of them are worth. I can understand this with Walmart boots. But the real thing should already have enough insulation to do the job.
+mobiltec Well, my experience is that really good boots do have more than enough insulation, but you won't fine a good pair for less that a hundred and fifty bucks, and two hundred and fifty is more like it, for top of the line quality. One good bott now costs more than I paid for my first car.
+James Ritchie Well it sucks. And if people would quit paying these crazy prices to buy this crap, the prices would come down. The manufacturer or the retail end or the middle man is making WAY too much profit. Stop buying this crap and the price will come down. But alas, people won't stop paying the price. So I guess we are screwed.
+mobiltec They defintiely thought, I wonder if that actually helps, it;s nice to see the video but does it actually work ? Did anybody try one foot with and one without ? I bet laboratory tests dismissed this myth so manufacturers don;t do it.
Nice tip, you're all finding the best tips out there !!
Hm, never thought about that, great tip, simple, easy, cheap, and easily reversible! Thanks!
What ever happened to you.. stopped seeing new videos about a year ago.. liked your videos..
Who the heck disliked this?
+Ranger McCue a Yeti probably :\ can't wear boots~
Shillary!
Maybe they didn't pay attention to that one important sentence he said. Those shades are NOT insulation, but RADIANT reflectors. They have no insulation value. BUT, he said that they reflect YOUR body heat back to you. Which is what makes it work.
James Henry the foam creates a small dead air space, so technically it does work as insulation too
Angry people with issues!
I wished Ida known that trick 25 years ago. Thanks for the tip. I'll subscribe now.
It works. Thanks so much.
spray deodorant to keep your feet from sweating, sweaty feet = cold feet
Thaaaaaank you.
Anti-perspirant I guess
@@philipocarroll Yeah. Anti-perspirant rather than deodorant. More often than not sticks have both qualities but some are simply deodorant without anti-perspirant.
Dude I knew what was making them cold ( sweat from my warm boots) never even thought about putting antiperspirant On My Feet. I am definitely going to have to give that a shot.
there's foot anti-perspirants, works good for me. It's sort of a chalk so helps not getting blisters too
where are you?
Great idea. Those sunscreens could have all kinds of uses. Even cutting one to fit under your sleeping pad to help keep your torso warm. Thanks for the tips. Fair winds and calm seas.
Excellent !!! Even for city dwellers up north, it is a great tip...thank you~
good idea but if the insert is to thick the boot volume will decrease and your circulation is compermised. I speak from experience.
I'm going to do one foot and compare.
ItsInTheDetails what was the outcome?
Yes what results did you get?
Hmm...no update.
Must have gotten frostbite on the other foot!🤔
ItsInTheDetails well? Inquiring minds want to know... thx
And what happened? No update!
Thank you for the quick tip about how to keep your feet warm....
Great fix thank you! I also read about using window screen works well for sweaty feet from the walk in hunting and the long standing still after. That when my feet freeze.
trick > SOCKS! for extra warmth > SHOES! for even more warmth > HEATER!
Haha. Works every time, eh ;)
IntenseAngler haha, im just kidding w you, looks like you have a great channel / i live on the Oregon Coast near the very wild Siuslaw National Forest and the Pacific Ocean / you would love it here, i wish you much success thanks / i love the outdoors / we got all kinds of awesome fishing here
Hey thanks... really appreciate that my friend... means alot :) Funny you mentioned that area of the coast by the way... visited it a few years back and absolutely loved it! Didn't get any fishin' in though, so I'm hoping you're doing enough for the both of us ;) haha.
All the best to ya.... -John
I PREFER THE METHOD OF POURING LIGHTER FLUID ON MY BOOTS AND SETTING THEM ON FIRE.
WORKS EVERY TIME.
love this video! I'm gonna try it! I work outdoors and winter is the worst for me, especially on my feet
this is a FANTASTIC idea! I'm doing this this weekend! thanks!
Nice trick, but then, your feet will be sweating llike they never did ;)
Yeah and now you're warm and damp!
Heat rises as does moisture. Good boots have good ventilation with lots of breathable panels. If you put an insulated pad under your sleeping bag, while camping, do you sweat and get damp? No. All lined Gortex waterproof boots are the worst for damp feet if you are a heavy sweater.
Sweat...frostbite.......death 😀
I agree with Major Charles above. There's no reason your feet should feel damp from sweat with a reflective liner like this. Especially if, as the video suggests, you are wearing wool socks. Wool is the original and still the best wicking fiber. It transports perspiration from your pores while still in its vapor state and wicks it from your skin before your skin feels damp.
By osmosis, the dampness then moves outward into the lining of your boot/shoe where it eventually vents to the atmosphere. Furthermore, even if wool becomes damp, it still insulates and retains body heat better than any other fiber I know of.
Canoeing in the Minnesota Boundary Waters, we wore the cheapest possible canvas sneakers over a great pair of wool socks.
In and out of canoes all day, ankle to knee deep in water still frigid even in Minnesota summers, our feet would be completely soaked all day while portaging from lake to lake.
But body heat warmed the water in the socks and the wool maintained the heat even as our feet squished inside our sneakers.
(Incidentally, we wore the inexpensive sneakers because who wants to ruin $150 or $200 boots by having them soaking wet all day and then drying-and-cracking when we took them off in camp, only to repeat the process the next day)
@Rick James Brother, first off -- there's no need to yell. Second, with all possible respect -- of course your feet will sweat. They'd better sweat. How else do you expect your body to cool itself? Even in the coldest weather, your body had better keep sweating or you will quite simply die. In winter, you may not FEEL like you are sweating because cold climes such as Minnesota are incredibly dry in the winter so perspiration evaporates in its vapor state so you don't feel liquid sweat. But you will still lose heat due to radiation or conduction. If layers of newspaper act as insulation (as they certainly do) I don't fault you for using it. You'll have to inform us if the newspaper will last through a multi-day or even multi-week adventure. I know from experience that two pair of wool socks (alternated daily) will keep feet warm and dry for weeks on end with no noticeable odor
Just chop them off and put them in a microwave, works like a charm
LMAO
I tried it now i dont feel my feet so i dont get cold any more just cut them of and sew then on again 10/10
Thomas Jefferson It always amuses me when people write things like "Your a idiot" or "Their to stupid to know." They're so busy trying to insult someone else that they must have missed that time where the pot lectured the kettle for its undue blackness! Lol
pussy spelling warrior on the internet, get a life
BPB9973952 No wonder she didn't move much.
Another one of those why didn't I think of that moments. Thanks John!
Wow! Can't wait to try this! Thank you.
heres the twitter link if any1s still worried about him twitter.com/IntenseAngler
Are you ever going to upload a new video? or are you dead
Thanks. Definitely going to do this.
This tip actually works (unlike many other tips on YT) - thanks for sharing. ATB Gereon
+19ghost73 Really glad to hear that you found this little tip helpful my friend. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment by the way... it's very much appreciated!
ATB -John
Quick option don't go outside 👌
Are you done with RUclips??
Absolutely brilliant mylar reflective insulation! Why didn't I think of that? My feet are going to stay warm this winter!
Wow! What a clear picture! Great quality.
thank you again for another great video this one will help me out a lot my feet always get cold because i have no toe nails to speak of so keeping my feet warm is a big thing for me
+carla theisen You're very welcome Carla. Sure hope this one helps ya out... :)
Thanks SO much for totally useful info!
great tip for my next snow hike !
good idea, I'm gonna try that if it ever gets cold here in SC.
Just tried it today and I decided to come back and thank you!
+josiah salcido Very cool. Hope it's working out great for ya brother!
That was a groovy disco scene idea and it works great! Thanks for the trippin tip and keep it real!
I bought a sleeping mat with a silver reflective side back in the mid nineties, perhaps they are around but I haven't seen one since, worked a treat.
Sounds like a fantastic idea! Thanks.
Definitely will give this one a try
