  1. I run in Canada and it is often cold and wet. I read recently about
    thinsulate sicks that an ultramarathoner was using - costing about $70 and
    she swore by them.
    Does anyone know where to buy these?

  2. Uh, in a store? (these canadians just get dumber everyday...)

    Since it doesn't look like you've got any viable suggestions, you might
    try a dive shop. I googled and most references for places to buy were
    all dive shops. I'm not sure if they would be too heavy or not.

    There were a couple references to bundling up to go play in the snow or
    whatever by putting on thinsulate socks, but I never found any "to buy"
    places for them or brands or real clues. So not sure if they are the
    same or not.

    $70 seemed expensive for what I saw, although converting CD to US makes
    it more realistic, I think.

    Where did you read about these? We're (Alaska) always looking for
    something to maintain warm, dry feet when running in slush, so if you
    find something, please post. Many people seem to use Smartwool socks or
    have played with neoprene, stormcloth, sealskinz, or goretex socks.

    I think some winter running shoes may have some thinsulate in them, but
    I usually find insulate in boot or jacket insulation.

  6. Here is a link to buy thinsulate lined socks

    http://www.wearguard.com/froogle/style_order.html?assort=general_catalog
    &style=479

    but they are only $19.99, so they may or may not be what you are looking
    for. Thinsulate is a 3M product so maybe they can head you in the right
    direction.
