from the desert: thanks for this. a lot of people assume layering is common knowledge, but it isn’t when you’re used to heat. super helpful!

Decathlon really has some good base layers for winter trips!

Respect for you wearing just your base layer in the freezing temperature.

I’m one who sweats more than most do. So base layer choice is critical for me. You pointed out the problem with Merino- it holds about 30% moisture and once saturated it does not readily dry. I’ve found a Merino/synthetic blend to be better suited in this regard. The fastest moisture transfer base layer I’ve found is the Brenja (a Norwegian company) “fishnet” base layer. Nothing else I’ve tried comes close. This past year I trained all winter for a trek in Iceland. I got an Alpaca mid layer hoodie and I have to say Alpaca is the real deal: Warmer than Merino, only holds 10% moisture and dries faster. Worked so well for me, I left my puffy coat at home and was very comfortable. Obviously, not sufficient for the weather depicted in this video (it would be my go to mid layer). Downside to Alpaca is it is quite expensive compared to synthetics but it functions better for my high sweat needs when active. Having once traveled to the Arctic in winter, the info in this video is spot on.

I just prefer warmer weather!! It’s going to be 8 degrees in my part of Texas on Friday or colder! We are not equipped for that. My poor pipes.

I would trust this guy over others since he lives in the cold verse someone who lives in the desert

Great approach. I am going to have to check out the Decathlon gear.

One good-looking socked foot 6:16 Nice. Thanks for the sweaty feet/socks tips. Superb presentation skills and background scenery.

a lot of outer layers like my ski jacket does have insulation. It’s made to be both warm and protect you from the elements. In fact it’s warmer than all of my mid layers.

Been looking for these types of videos. Thank you

Another banger of a video, Justin. For my socks I'll often hike in one pair, put on another pair as soon as I get to camp, and then I actually use a 3rd pair that is thicker and taller, just for sleeping in. The next day for the hike back out I put on socks #2 that should be minimally damp still but are just going to get wet with sweat as I hike out anyway. If I kept them in my sleeping bag overnight they're likely to be pretty close to dry by the next morning, though.

Hi Justin great video. Thanks. Which boots are you using for snow shoeing, skiing ?

[lilianlee]

I don't want to wear bulky in winter so I just bought an Arris heated jacket. It keeps me warm when I work outside. Very usefuly.

[thewildblake]

Great Video! Can you make a video on snow/cold footware for hiking?

[teekaytrailers]

Quality video and nice editing Justin! I carry two base layers myself, my layer for hiking, and then I wear my merino base layer once I get to camp.

[TrekkingPackingGear]

Damn I am so jealous of the weather you got already!

[magicworldbyjorg]

So, instead of Merino Base Layers when being active, what do you choose? Obviously a synthetic, but what?
Personally, I hate polyester. I have an Icebreaker Merino Base Layer, but I find its too thick and I feel wet cold spots. When I stop being active, I can feel that it helps repell the sweat better, but its probably because its too thick (260). So Im considering a thinner version, or your opinion for an alternative?
