What to Wear

DRESS IN LAYERS.

Tight is COLD, dress in loose fitted clothing

• Base Layer: Wear synthetic thermals that are tight fitting for your top and bottom pieces. Tuck your top layer into your bottom layer to ensure your midsection stays warm and your shirt does not ride up.
• Mid Layer: Fleece is a comfortable and affordable midlayer to wear. We recommend fleece pajama bottoms paired with a hoodie. This can be loose fitting.
• Outer Layer: Snow pants and a PUFF jacket (down or synthetic) are the warmest.
• Feet: Tight boots mean COLD FEET! We will provide arctic rated boots that will allow your toes wiggle room to stay warm.
