Next time, buy a full cover.

The question is *why* your toes get cold. It may be more of a
circulation issue than losses through the shoe. It certainly doesn't
hurt to add a wool layer and use a cover to trap heat, but keeping good
circulation (especially when your core is only "warm enough") is fairly
important, too.
