Try Heatons if there's one where you live. They should have thermal socks called Heat Holders.

You've got some good advice already. I second the motion of finding two thick woolly sheep and then shoving your feet up their jacksy. You can also repeat the process for gloves and of course a nice ear warmer.
Being a hardy country boy I shun those pansy accessories although I am partial to using one as a willy warmer on a particularly cold night.

If you wear five black sheep (hands, feet & willy) and nothng else, uou could go out dressed as the "five of clubs".

A camping or hiking shop do specialised socks.

Worth it you are into trekking, but they don't last long, they become small woolly socks after a few washes.

If you want to buy locally please use your regional forum. Otherwise the clothes forum will know.
