Here is my winter gear.

Jacket: Joe Rocket Honda Endurance Textile Jacket

http://www.newenough.com/closeouts/t...le_jacket.html

Gloves: Tour Master Winter Elite

http://www.newenough.com/gloves/insu...le_gloves.html

Thermals: Military 100% Polypropylene. Top & bottom

Pants: Jeans

Boots: Wolverine work boots. LOL

Over pants: I have two different ones. For extreme cold I have a pair of military 100% Nylon pants. They say "Extreme Cold" on them LOL. I have a lighter insulated pull over with suspenders I got from Academy for $25.

Armor: Alpinestar *hybrid*. I call it a hybrid cause it's has the looks of both versions 1 and 2.

Yes I do wear all of these at once sometimes. LOL Over my armor I usually wear one sweater.

I did come home sunday from a trip and it was foggy and in the low 30's. I did fine about half the way, then finally started feeling the cold through my gloves. The jacket is nice but it fits rather large around the stomach/waist.

Might have to check these out. Being a girl, I have a hard time finding decent gloves that fit me well enough that I can still function comfortably.

Gaitor! This is the word I was trying to think of the other day.
