Front FLOOR vents not really enough

Does anyone else like to use the floor vents as the main vent in these cold days? My wife is concerned about, as I also have whitnessed, the minimal amount of air that comes out of the floor vents when they are selected. The flow is minimal and it seems that they are pointed at your shins instead of your feet? We found this odd and my wife is wondering if there is a solution to her COLD feet.

Thanks fella's

Then again, hot air rises and cold air sinks...

Did you guys try closing the left and right face level vents to maximize the floor venting? I just did it tonight on the way home from work and thought the floor venting was fine.
