I realise that the UK etc island peeps might not have this issue, but up here in the land of snow and polar bears, getting dressed for outside is a bit of an issue. Unless you want to bring home a pair of frozen plumbs and store your nose in a ziplock bag
My get up has evolved over the years and here's the gear i use to get out and about;
Boot-style-shoes - Anything really that can stomp away through the snow.
Socks are just socks, warm enough boots do the trick.
Longer underwear is optional, but mmm it's nice to have a pair of longies under the regular jeans.
Upper body is the main thing here, and here's the setup for that, from bottom layer to top;
Shirt (T or other)
Hoodie (zipped up)
Scarf that goes under the hood in a fashion that you can ninjamask yourself.
Cap under the hood.
Hood on.
Leather jacket(waist, zip up).
Lift scarf to cover face.
Nice and toasty and tested in a windy snowstorm, didn't feel a pinch
If it's a really good storm, i also put on clear sunglasses to actually see sh*t.
Gloves ofcourse added and all ready to go.
Dressing up takes about 10 secs more then usual, undressing even less.
How about the rest of you snowtrotting folk?
