Am freezing with Reynaulds - warm coat and footwear recomends for watching DC play sports

[Shoes4Mum]

Hello I have Reynaulds Syndrome and my DC had started to play football and rugby this year and I am freezing and miserable!!

After mid-week rugby this week and Saturday football now I am honestly ready to just pull DC out of sports because I cannot deal with being this cold on a regular basis 🙁

I've looked online and on ebay but am just totally overwhelmed by the choice.

I am looking for a really warm coat, ideally a long one (maybe shin length) though I am pretty tall (5foot 10) so a lot of coats aren't that long on me 🙁 definitely not something that stops at the hips as I would be draughty!

The one I really like is the one Monica Geldart has in these YouTube shorts https://youtube.com/shorts/5QWsHDyO24Q?si=fpezMQmswNuggFbk

Maybe it needs to be windproof if there is such a thing these days. My friend had a stormproof coat from M&S a few years ago however looking on the website it seems to have been discontinued.

I am also finding my toes are absolutely numb and then extremely painful after standing on the sidelines for several hours. Are there any boots or trainers which would be really warm? At present I am wearing Uggs ankle boots which are lined and I would have expected them to keep me warm but they aren't. I've seen some other parents wearing riding boots and hiking boots as well as trainers but I don't know anyone well enough to ask if their feet have gone numb as I am new! Or maybe I should get some really good socks... If anyone could recommend some brands?

Many thanks xx

Heated socks and heated gloves are the only way I can do it. Along with lots of layers. Fleece lined leggings under trousers, layers on top.

Wow thank you all for these replies!! I will read through now xxx

Uniqlo heat tech base layers (extra or ultra warm versions) leggings and top
REAL wool jumper and socks - I find real wool so much warmer than any other fabric
Lambswool insoles in your shoes (£4 from Tesco/ Amazon)
North face arctic parka - look on vinted/ fb market place there's lots of them kicking about

I have raynauds too. Super thick gloves help but I use hand warmers too. I wear snow boots. For cost, Lands End expedition. I also wear thermal leggings, thermal socks and Tesco do extra warm thermal tops. I’m in north Scotland, on a farm. It’s bloody cold. That all keeps me toasty and I’m out for an hour or so at a time, like this week, in lots of snow

Can’t go past SOREL boots for keeping feet warm and dry. The flatform soled ones keep you up off the cold ground as well. I really like the look of these ones. (Australian ASOS) SOREL boots
Just make sure that they state that they are waterproof.

Thank you all so much for your ideas!! Really grateful xxx
