a technique developed by U.S. Army researchers in Alaska. In a room that's a comfortable temperature, submerge your hands in a container of warm water for three to five minutes. Then go into a freezing room (outside in wintertime unless you have access to a walk-in freezer) and again dip your hands in warm water for 10 minutes. The cold environment would normally make your blood vessels constrict, but the warm water makes them open. Repeatedly training vessels to open despite the cold around them may enable you to counter the restriction reflex even without the warm water.

the coldest my hands get is while duck hunting.
I found that you put your gloves on before you go out and NEVER take them off. If you dont take them off and get your body warm while walking in, etc. I found them to stay much warmer. The hot hands also helped as well.
Other than that, not sure.

Let us know how that turns out..
