The Camden Promise on 47 th and Colfax (Gethsemane Church) runs a food shelf, clothing closet, and other programs. We are always looking for donations and volunteers. www.thecamdenpromise.org

Another great place is nursing homes. For those on county assistance getting new clothing is often times not an option. At Crystal Care Center the residents often take up collections for funeral clothes for the poorer residents when they pass away.

For feet, try the [foil method](https://youtu.be/cFPVWR2 jzI4?t=6 m41 s), it's practically free if you don't want to invest in fancy shoe covers. GCN has some other videos that may help you, just search "GCN cold weather" on YouTube.

I’d definitely be using chemical warmers like little hotties.

Anything Sealskinz

Take the shoe inserts out and[get some thermal shoe inserts like these](https://www.amazon.com/Moneysworth-Best-Polar-Warmth-Insole/dp/B00DWSX5N6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1513199291&sr=8-1&keywords=thermal+shoe+inserts) They reflect the heat back onto your foot and work really well, in addition to better socks, etc. As for socks, wool socks work great.

Here's what works for me down into the teens, on the road: SPD pedals. Giro Alpinduros. A thin and a thick pair of wool socks. Pearl Izumi pro barrier shoe covers. If it got much colder here, if get some 45NRTH boots. One of the things that I have to watch is to put too many socks on / lace up too tight - this actually makes it get colder quicker.

Well, two hours of cycling (even indoors) in 10 F is plenty. If you are wearing clipless shoes then you can try winter cycling shoes from 45 nrth or Lake for example (those very heavy duty ones), but even they have their limits. The cleat and pedals simply are such good heatsinks that no amount of insulation will keep your feet warm in the long run. >I cannot feel my feet Once your feet start hurting from cold it's just a matter of time until your feet go numb and you get a frostbite. Frostbites are serious and can lead to permanent damage, so don't ignore them and learn to recognize the symptoms. Having got a level 1 frostbite before, I can tell you they suck big time.

Recently got some garneau shoe covers on nashbar for a fairly reasonable price. Did 15 miles in 20 degrees and they worked great!

10F is pretty cold, there isn’t much that’s going to keep you warm for very long, but maybe try wool hiking socks. They’re thick and keep their warmth when wet. Might have better luck with a small space heater at your feet though.

Good winter boots (I wear the Columbia Bugaboot Omni heat, but many others would be fine), wool socks, possibly with a second thinner liner sock if needed. This is enough to keep my feet warm while bicycle out doors in -10 F. So hopefully you'd be fine in a garage at 10 F.

Winter boots and merino hiking socks. I’m currently loving the northwave extreme winter gtx ones.

Temps where I live have been in the mid 20's F for a few weeks now. My setup is 2 pairs of thick smartwool socks, then my cycling shoes, then thick neoprene Sealskinz shoe covers, and my toes still start to get cold after about 30 minutes. I've tried adding aluminum foil and I've tried saran wrap, and while the foil helped a little, it also trapped moisture inside it so that when I took my socks off there was ice inside the foil. My solution has been to keep rides to about an hour. I know Bontrager makes some thick snowboot-type clipless shoes, but I'm hesitant to drop $200 on another pair of cycling shoes. Another option I've considered is throwing a set of platform pedals on and just wearing my Sorel boots.

get one of those propane heaters. you only have to bring the temp up a little, and only for an hour at a time. Start the heater while you are putting on your shoes, and it will be too hot in 5 minutes. Put a blanket of some type of insulation under your trainer. The cold will seep up out of the floor and be really cold.

10 is cold, I used to have trouble even shifting at that temp, and I was only out for like 45 minutes. Bike faster?

I know this isn't what you were asking but I used multiple layers of socks and shoe covers last year. This year I bought a pair is Bontrager OMW and riding in -5C keeps my feet toasty in summer sucks. A good pair of winter cycling boots are totally worth it over trying to layer shoe covers and socks.

Put some old socks over your shoes and cut a hole for the cleat. If you put too many socks, or sock that's too thick on under the shoe, you'll just squish your foot and reduce circulation, making it colder. Make sure you actually have room for the socks you're wearing before cramming them into your shoe. If you're on a trainer, I also suggest the space heater idea. 10F is pretty shitty, doubly so if it's 10F indoors.

I saw this online when I searched. Not sure if it helps but here yah go! http://birdonthestreet.com/2010/09/shoes-that-fit-over-afos/

New balance I buy my son at sears comes I a wide and there usually super cheap. Check shoes.com

No personal experience, but I've heard Stride Rite makes wide shoes. But they're probably expensive (more than I can afford for a growing boy, at least). And yes, Payless does too, but the selection will be more hit or miss.

Nike ID.

Not 100% sure how legitimate this site is but I've been interested in these https://shoes4 fans.com/collections/minnesota-vikings

Aurora market in Fort. prov/ 867-699-4321

Shoes are sent to developing nations for disaster relief or to be recycled into playground equipment depending on condition at worldsoles.com the recipient of the shoes for the Kenwood Elementary fundraiser ^^^

Soles for Souls. Startline Running is a collection site. Right Tammy Sturtz?

Schuler Shoes has a collection box too.

Go to a place like TC Running (EP & Maple Grove). They look https://www.twitter.com/your walk & make suggestions that you can try in the parking lot.

Nike Free's!

Missy I definitely recommend checking out Brooks. If you're in the twin cities, Run N Fun (St. Paul) or Twin Cities Running Company (Eden Prairie) do a great job with fittings and have excellent selections. Good luck!

Try Schuler Shoes. They have staff on site to evaluate your feet and then recommend a good shoe. Several Twin City locations

Running Room has been great for past 2 shoe selections. Right off Hennepin by work. There is also a new place I want to check out in Northeast called Mill City Running. What Thanksgiving run are you doing?

I recently went to Schuler Shoes in Burnsville. Great service and excellent shoes but they don't have brooks there if that's what you're looking for. Most of the running shoes were new balance, at least at the Burnsville store.
