I paid about $200 for Shimano winter shoes a year ago. I don't wear them often, but I'm happy I got them. I tried so many other ideas, and this is the first one that works.
I also inadvertently increased my feet's tolerance for cold over the last couple of years. I was living in the country for the first two years of Pandemic, and every morning, before getting dressed, I stepped outside and stood for only a few seconds. I don't know if this will work for anyone else, but it seems to have worked for me. And it's not a complete solution but it's worth something.
