Got a pair for Christmas last year, but hadn't had a chance to use them. Tried them opening weekend (temps at freezing) and I never once had to scrunch up my toes to warm them back up. Have no idea how they would work down in the teens, but color me sold on them.

Just be sure to get at least one size larger than your boots.
 
I just got some this season and tried them for the first time this morning. I messed up by not putting them on as soon as I sat down and got settled. I ended up waiting several hours before putting them on. They definitely helped, but probably would've been better if I put them on after getting in the stand.
 
They are the only thing I have found that will keep my feet from freezing.

Always put them on as soon as you sit down. Hot hands inside with your boots will keep your feet warm in frigid temps.
Same here. I've never found a pair of boots that would keep my toes warm, if it got down in the low 30's or below. But, the boot blankets work great. I've used them when it was in the teens and they worked.

Put them on as soon as you get to stand. Remember they insulate.
 
How well do these work with a saddle set up?
Probably not great. I had a pair a long time ago, I like them but I don't think they would be great for saddle hunting. I use the grip on my boots to push around the tree off my platform. I think you'd lose that traction.

That was my thought, but never used them so was just curious
 
I've got them and Icebreaker boot blankets both with wool boot liners inside. Them and hot hands!!!!! If your feet get cold in means you are a corpse!!!!!
