My toes did get a bit cold as the ride wore on. I wore heavy socks and
my usual sneakers.

Here are a few suggestions.

1) Find wool products, sock gloves, sweaters. It may be old fashion
but it hold the heat when wet and gets the sweat/wet off the skin
without lossing heat. Generally it's not windproof.

For the most part I confine my retro-grouchery to one or two things.
But the big one is wool. Wool Socks. I think wool socks are the bomb.
The are so infused with bomb-ness, I might call them the next best thing
to be discovered since Pam Grier. Because of course nothing contains
the bomb-nature more than Pam Grier.

the full consequence of his previous decision - feral, withered children, in
tattered, filthy garments, toiled mindlessly at his command in a single chamber
which reeked of oil and burning animal flesh - his time had come to deliver the
final instruction; "Yes! I would like fries with that."
