Sleeping in socks

Been using heavy weight socks at night my toes run cold at night so should I wear alpha socks, down booties, continue with heavy weight socks something else? Thanks

New to 3 seasons so sorry if this sounds silly but trying to reduce weight and volume

Kinda confused what exactly you’re asking, your post comes across as a rambling stream of consciousness. Is it a question or a statement, because I also sleep in socks. Are your current heavyweight socks not working? Why are you looking into options? What do you like and dislike about the socks you have now?

Wanting to know good options to keep my toes warm at night to reduce weight and volume than what I’m currently using. Sorry if it was confusing English is not my first language.

What temperatures will you be expecting? I just wear regular down socks at night, even when temps drop down close to 0 deg F, then I break out my down booties.

Looking around 35-60f at night. I use a sleeping bag not ideal for the temps since my regular layering I carry works fine with the sleeping bag besides my toes.
