"These aren't shoes, they're stockings," Frodo muttered, fighting with a particularly stubborn piece of ice. "Bilbo had dwarf boots, when he got to the mountains. And he wouldn't need much in Rivendell, where he can go warm his toes whenever he wants." He tugged the socks on and looked up at Caradhras. "I'm ready now."
ETA, this is more a plot bunny than anything else... But it's so cold out tonight I couldn't resist!
