Would be fun to see what the average newschooler uses for their layers.

Top: -0-10c = Wool base layer, Wool medium thick sweater.
-7-20 = Wool base layer, Wool medium sweater, Wool medium thick sweater.
-20-35C = Wool base layer, Wool medium sweater, Wool thick sweater.


Bottom: -0-10C = Wool long underwear thin and fleece pants.
-10-30C = Wool long underwear thick and fleece pants.

Always wool socks.

All merino wool.

HH Warm Thermals + T-shirt + Shell Jacket, I put on a microfleece if it gets to -20

HH Alpine Ski socks, I have some Falke ones that are wool but my feet get too hot and then the sweat freezes.

Oh and I wear this powerskin balaclava thing which is fleecey on the bottom and like spandex around the head so its nice and thin.
