I usually wear a medium weight wool underwear, Minus 33 or Ice breaker when night temps warrant, however my feet usually get cold anyway, even when using a 20 degree 7/8 length underquilt (UGQ) and Thermarest foot pad like Shug uses. I have tried using a space blanket in between the double layer of my BB extra long hammock. This works, except it slips down the side of the layers leaving the right side of the footbox uncovered. Is there a good way to fix some sort of fastening on the inside of the hammock wall to provide an attachment point for the space blanket without damaging the hammock? I have a new sock from Warbonnet, have not hung yet to use it, but think the cold air convection will still come through the hammock wall. My top quilt is a Leighlo w/ footbox which keeps everything very comfortable except feet when coldness is a problem.
