The Internet just pissed itself this morning about these rechargeable boots that warm your feet for up to eight hours. Seriously. Boots with built-in warming devices. By Columbia. For $250. Get out of here.

You can buy it here but please don’t. Seriously. Wear some socks. I know it’s cold out in MadiFargoScrantonUmbus or wherever you live, but if you’re spending eight hours in the snow you need to think a little further ahead than finding shoes that warm up e-lec-tron-ick-ally.
