-15C!

The UK would go into meltdown if the air temp went that low.

Not to mention how many people it would kill.

That's nothing really. Just over the last few days the temp has gone beyond -30C in Lapland in the northern part of Finland. It used to be that cold here in the south too but haven't experienced such temps in years. The most I've witnessed myself while being in Lapland many winters ago, was -44C.

Overall having temps that low doesn't affect the everyday life here that much, we're used to it. Only trains and undergrounds/subways are occasionally affected, thanks to their brakes getting frozen and for people who have forgotten to put a timer for the heater in their car so getting the car started might be a bit trickier when below -30C.

I have never worn fancy shoes when it was shit cold, I thought the leather would crack.

Who said I was wearing my fancy shoes? I have many everyday beaters and non-leather pairs I can use instead of the more precious leathery ones. Besides supes are hardly my choice of footwear for extreme temperatures anyway. It's usually the faux leather that cracks in freezing cold, premium leather shouldn't do that but I don't feel like testing out all my better supes.

I might have misunderstood the "any supes" part.

RE: Things that make your blood boil - Grimmy - 16-12-09

I've worn probably closer to 20 different pairs of supes and non-supes in these temps here during this and a few previous winters and some have been leather models. No crackings with any yet so I'd say "any supes" could fit in there.

LQ's might get some damage though as they have some sort of plastic in 'em.

Fuck. That. Shit. One of my sisters lives in Linkoping in Sweden and experiences similar temps. I've visitied her briefly once in 10 years. And I made sure it was July. Shellshock likes it hot. Hot like fire. Even in the mild British winters my central heating is pretty much on 24-7 from Nov-Apr. I'd fuckin hibernate if I could get away with it.
