Abstract

Despite being one of the oldest threats to life and limb, cold exposure and consequent disorders are no less important in modern military practice as they were during classical times. Indeed, the desire of clothing providers to over-sell incremental improvements in protection may lead them to build unrealistic expectations, for example, claiming that a new boot will make cold injury a thing of the past (1). If only these conditions were that simple to prevent.
