Ok, I was checking out Alaska Leather last week and came across sheepskin insoles. Now my riding boots don't have insoles anymore thanks to Krome Roses Boston Terrier so I decided to give these a try. I bought a pair of each thick and thin. Well this morning I decided to test the thick pair out and rode to work without my customary electric socks, it was 34 degrees.
Normally I would have my electric socks and gloves for anything under 40 degrees but this morning I just wore the gloves along with long johns, leather chaps, and a leather jacket.
Without the electric socks in 34 degree temps my feet get unbearably cold within 20 minutes, and we all know that once the feet get cold the ride is no longer fun. Well with the thick sheepskin insoles my feet bordered on being TOO HOT, I actually had to put my feet on the highway pegs about 30 min into the ride.
So if you are looking for a cheap alternative to electric socks I highly recommend them.
As a bonus they are VERY comfortable.

They are about mid way down the page.
Oh yeah I got some of that Monkey Butt Powder to give it a try and I am impressed with it also.
I ordered it on Tuesday and received it on Friday, can't complain about that. These folks have always done me right.
