I don't worry about a minute or two of light shivering, but if it doesn't stop, it's time to warm them up.

Definitely get some warm clothes. If you get snow, get some comfortable booties. The main thing to do is to keep them moving. If they're generating heat, they're not going to get cold. They can get frostbite.

Here's our ultra-cold gear. I've had them out comfortably for 20 minutes at 5 below.
