Warm boots and cold feet

September 20, 2025

This is going to be a funny one, in some ways. It was for me.

New boots

I live in Sweden.

Last year, my old boots were a little too warn, so I bought a new pair of Icebugs, in the middle of the the Swedish winter.

You may wonder why I mention that I bouht new boots, given this is such a common occurance for everyone. That is a very good question.

I mention this because the first time I put them on, I had a very interesting experience, which I never had before: they felt warm.

You might now ask, what is so unusual about that? They are supposed to feel like that.

Well, I didn't know that feeling exited. My feet were always cold in the winter, and in the summer actually. I literally have cold feet, all the time.

So when they felt warm, while walking outside in the Swedish winter, that was new to me.

Now I just saw them the other day and I am looking forward to wearing them again to have that feeling again.
