Winter wear!

[Hodge]

I used to have some Oregon waterproof chainsaw pants, they were really good and kept you dry no matter how wet it got. I don't think you can get em anymore.

The under armour underpants are brilliant, I don't use anything else heat gear for the summer and cold gear for the winter.

I'll let you know when it gets cold!

 

Merino base layer will go on first when the temp really plummets.

 

You can get battery powered heated socks if you really suffer from cold feet. I've never needed them, but I've heard they are worth the money.

 

Showa Thermos are a good choice, Google them, loads of suppliers. Worth having a few pairs to rotate so you can always put toasty ones on.

 

Yve Clark (Clark Cut and Climb, ad on the right) sells some excellent winter gloves I can't remember the name of.

 

Must check my winter kit out, need to be ready when it arrives....

Under Armour or Helly Hansen base layer , Fleece/Fleece Gilet with my Stein Jacket on top. Personally found the Helly Hansen better value.

 

As for feet , a thin pair of socks followed by a good quality pair of socks of your choice. I've found TEKO to be the best if not a little pricey.

 

Don't wear gloves , its not that cold in the Hilux.

 

My two pence worth.

Best advice so far!
