    I now live in Iceland and they swear by Lopi peysa which is a 100% wool cardi or jumper, from local sheep. It is itchy but hardly ever needs washing as it naturally anti bacterial. And it comes in lovely colours and is quite cheap. They last for years as it hard wearing.
    The locals wear the Lopi.peysa with a down coat in winter and a raincoat in summer if raining.

    I prefer merino wool over synthetics for multiple reasons. It will not catch fire or melt when close to a campfire. It keeps most of it's insulating value even when wet. It does not smell nearly as bad as synthetics when you have to wear it longer then you want. Yes it's heavier and more expensive, but I think the advantages out weigh the disadvantage of cost and weight. Minus 33 is my go to brand.

      @@erkeda12 something to think about putting on my birthday wishlist.
      I started a PCT hike this fall. I did many things right, and a few things wrong. Overloading was my biggest mistake (food, water, etc), but, ironically, I tried to save weight with synthetics.
      Long story to a short one - got caught in serious rain 4 out of 5 days and the synthetics failed me bigtime!!! A wool scarf and woolblend socks pretty much saved my ass from hypothermia, but I didn't have a wool body layer.
      I am learning the value of going light as a serious hiker, but if I'm gonna be on a mountain crest before July or after August, I'm taking WOOL!

      @@joshmcdzz6925 You weren't there, I was. Wool DID save me. More wool would have made a horrible environment merely a not-so-comfortable nuiscance.
      Also, being deep in the Cascades, I was surrounded by thick woods. Wind was not the major issue, but would have been welcome on the one mostly dry day which wasn't enough for drying out the synthetics without wind or direct sun.
      When wet is intense enough to penetrate a commercially laminated and produced map, then it has long prior penetrated any rain shell. Experienced Northwestern outdoorsmen don't typically fool themselves into expecting to stay dry over long stretches. I gave it a test to "lighten up" and should have known better.
      At least for me it was only a multi-week test, and not a multi-month test. My hope is that the seed of wisdom is at least planted, and a future distance hiker is spared from preventable full-on hypothermia.

    In my experience the only way to stay warm is to keep moving. Used be a royal guard, so during winter it could get below -30 degrees Celsius.
    You could put on as many layers you want but you will get cold.
    I usually wear wool, from top to bottom, and wind/rain proof shell jacket and pants from Norrøna.no.
    We just had a weekend of wind (15-20 m/s) in -15 to -20 degrees Celsius.
    I wore one bottomlayer of wool and medium thick wool socks, with wind and rain proof pants from Bergans.
    On top I wore a thin wool shirt and a thick wool sweater (NATO) as inner layer. Top outer layer was a windproof jacket from beyond X.
    For my hands I had a mix of leather and goretex gloves.

    NO ONE is talking about going on eBay and buying used USMC or ARMY Level 7 Primaloft Protection. My Cold Weather endurance is very low, the affordable Surplus keeps me from immigrating to Brazilian Jungles! This Inexpensive U.S. Military Extreme Cold Weather Merchandise is typically Entirely Superior to Civilian Stuff! Combine The U.S. Military Level 7 Clothing with their lower levels of Cold Weather Layers, and you saved a Trainload of Cash while reducing Hypothermia/Associated Agony Risk!

    Living in canada, having that Canada Goose or Down huge puffy jacket is nice, but if you want to be able to work and live and move around eaiser, layer your clothes, most people will buy a down huge puffy jacket and wear a tshirt under it, because you won't get cold, but what happens when u get to warm, you sweat. i layer when in the woods. it'll be something like this for my upper body: long sleeve performance shirt sweat wicking>short sleeve performance shirt sweat wicking>fleece or sweater>WW2 Austiran military wool field jacket>waterproof/windproof shell. boom, multiple layers, waterproof and sweat resistant!

  • @MichaelSaull
    @MichaelSaull 8 лет назад +10

    This seems like overkill to me. While it might be a good idea to have some of this stuff in a survival kit in your car this is a bit much for going out every day.
    I live in a very harsh climate in Canada where it frequently gets below -20c and I wear essentially a t-shirt, dress shirt and medium weight bomber jacket and it is plenty warm. As long as you have a decent hat and gloves the only thing that feels cold is my legs if i am wearing just jeans or dress pants. I think I am going to try adding a full leg sub-base layer like you did here and that should be good for 90% of situations.
    Yes for a survival situation adding some snow pants and a fleece or wool hoodie would be a nice to have but it would probably take a long time before you get dangerously cold even without those and by then you should probably have a fire going.

    Nice. Thank you. One great product i have found is the Buff hat & neck gaiter made with Thermonet, which is Primaloft Silver continuous filament yarn. It's as thin as the original polyester buff, but about 4x warmer... Also polartec power-grid is a little pricey depending on the manufacturer, but amazing since the channels in the grid-fleece are warmer since they trap more air, are more breathable, and lighter than original brushed fleece, plus they have a hardface which allows them to slide across each other when layered, rather than sticking to each other like velcro the way that old-school fleece used to do... Peace...

    If you are discussing the cold and preparing for it you should do another video about preparing your clothing to avoid frost bite specifically. Here in Minnesota it does get below bitterly cold into exceedingly dangerous. Don't walk around with your scarf down. Protect your face better. You need glove liners also. Great work been a fan for a long time. Keep up the videos.

    This is a survival channel. When you put that as the context, it makes more sense about all of these layers. But as a child, It'd be 0f outside and I'd throw on a $20 winter jacket, a face mask, some gloves, and blue jeans. Go play in the snow for a few hours. Main thing is almost no exposed skin. Even at work, 20 minute walk break outside when it's 10f in my dress pants.
    But if you're trying to survive outside, like sleeping, you're going to need those layers.

    With all that processed oil on I would give respectable distance to fires for fear of melting. If you want to survive the adverse conditions at length do what the natives of your area have done for centuries. You'll live longer. I have trapped, hunted and open pit mined in northern Canada most of my life. I wouldn't trade fur for polyester if my life depended on it. With the exception of the Arctic Muck Boot (Great to minus 40c wet or dry) Fur, cotton, wool, with trigger mitts inside mink oiled leather shell mittens with fur back. Clothes that keeps you warm while your moving is great, but if you are not warm while you are stopped or resting you're in trouble. If your feet or hands start to freeze your done. So practice your fire starting skills as well and have clothes you can put next to the fire and dry that doesn't melt. Just my opinion.

    Good information.
    Unlike winter underwear for the tops, there aren't many for the bottom.
    I found ladies winter legging makes a great choice under regular pants because they are relatively thinner than other long johns and stretch five times more.
    Look through the ali online store, you'll find many of them.
    I would think they also equally work well under thicker pants likes of snowboarding pants if the weather gets really cold.
    They go for around $6.-(shipped), so even if you find it's not for your needs, you can give them to your female friends without much regret.

    If you use mittens or gloves, I would also go for a double layer. For mittens I would go for a thin thermal inner/liner gloves with the mittens over them. In this case when you want to take off the mittens, you don't have your hands completely naked. For normal gloves you can also buy double layered gloves. Both versions have the advantage that they dry quicker and are usually warmer.

      Very good piece of advice! I do a lot of ice-fishing in the cold winter months, and I have finally learnt that the best way to keep Your hands warm while handling all kinds of fishing gear, is to go for a double layer solution. Thin wool gloves inside some windproof mittens.

    An update/advice on this guide I’ve found:
    In winter it’d frequently drop below 10F and have nasty winds, all at night.
    I’d be able to get away with two polartec 100 fleece (and poly pros underneath, the HEAVY type, not those dinky silk weight “poly pros”) no parka or goretex jacket over it.
    I didn’t use the same gloves, or boots or hat. Here is what I used:
    *G.I trigger finger gloves with wool inserts
    *Desert military goretex boots
    *nomex balaclava
    I tried using the N-1B arctic boots, but compared to the Gi Desert boots, they were heavy as all hell, and my feet would sweat from being overly warm, and then I’d get cold. The fabric is made of cotton.
    With the trigger gloves I’d find myself taking off the shell and just using wool gloves if there was no wind.
    For the head, the nomex balaclava worked wonders! I’d find myself having to take it off to cool off. There is a way to slip it off and wear it like a tight scarf, and then you can slip it back over your head when you’ve cooled down sufficiently.
    However, with the balaclava my glasses fog up. The ones in this video are great, up until you have your nose covered and until there is a blizzard. I’m still looking for something antifog. But for blizzard conditions, get actual ski goggles (with or without a tinted lens) I’d keep those in your b.o.b as a switch.
    Also keep the fleece cap as a switch. In the day time, the sun can make your head sweat when there’s no wind.
    I’d highly recommend you do follow the guide and get a polartec 300 or ECWCS fleece jacket to layer over a thinner one. It makes the difference. If you don’t, the wind will cut right through it!
    *Do not however, buy Columbia for fleece jackets!They do NOT hold up in the drier and are a waste of money. A polartec 300 is $30, vs Columbia $50 (and is thin) My zipper on my Columbia died within a month and it pills extremely fast.
    **I would also buy something like an M65 parka/field jacket to go over the 2 layers of fleece, WITH the green liner in the m65 field jacket.
    Make sure you get the extreme cold weather hood attachment that goes with the m65 jacket/parka. The attached hood on the m65 is meant for concealment and *not* warmth. You will freeze, and die with the attached hood only.
    I’ve read the comments that criticize this load out and I can tell you, they have not been in real blizzard/winter conditions. Or they have a cabin nearby. I had to walk frequently for business last year, in a blizzard once, to and from places and with just two polartecs it was like I was walking in summer!
    Last recommendation: as a switch, take leather gloves in place of heavy duty gloves for the dexterity if you need to do any kind of work with logs/fire making. Dense forestry/industrial forest work will eventually tear holes in any regular, non leather workman’s gloves.

    I agree with you on the majority of this list, but my personal base layer of choice is a union suit. Specifically, I use the LL Bean union suit. It's managed to keep me warm when just using it and blended under shirt on top, and has never stayed wet. And yes, it has a butt flap. Would recommend it to anyone. What're your thoughts on products like that?

    Layering works great in dry-cold, but in very humid cold or if you're cold and wet then a fire is really the only way to go.
    Fire with the layers that is.

    Great video & your links for each item’s names is AWESOMENESS!! I read some people’s surprise at the layers you wear & obviously they aren’t aged (I’m now pushing 60!) and know little about two facts: 1. Older people’s blood ‘thins’ [not the professional term, but this is YT].., Which means they wear more layers than the more youthful viewers & 2. Everyone has varying body temp ranges - even young people!!! Hopefully, some will temper their responses & adjust their ignorance w/ tads Of wisdom after thinking/reading, before engaging their mouths..?? As I said, GREAT Video & JUST The Right Amount Of Info w/ each item, before you moved on. 🇺🇸

    Sorry, but I have done a considerable amount of research on cold weather gear, and I find something funny. If all those synthetic fabrics work, how come cultures that are in far colder climates(i.e Scandinavian, Greenland, Iceland, even Russian) ALL seem to prefer WOOL.....100% Wool for pretty much everything? Also, a really good outter sheel alternative would be a layered Cloak, particularly if its outter layer is waxed canvas with a wool liner....

      For non-scratchy wool, try Minus 33. I use Minus33 tee shirts right against my skin when Summer hiking (lots of sweat) and no scratching, truly, no scratching, NONE. These tees feel somewhat like silk, really!!! Try one.

    Just wondering how many of the products you review are ones you buy and try - or is this just advertising/sponsorship? I'm trying to sift through ads to get to someone who actually uses the stuff. I've never seen you say "Product X is not suitable" - ever. Have you never found something unsuitable?
