We get sub zero temps for a couple of weeks here, west of Brissie.
Layering is best.
I made myself a set of polar fleece long johns. Made extra long to cover the ankles and half my hands.
Water proof ski pants
Water proof hooded jacket lined with polar fleece.
An over sized mans knitted jumper
2 pair of socks, first pair on are cotton.
Snow boots, mine are rated down to -15
Around my neck I wear, again home made, a double thickness , polar fleece neck muffler. It can be pulled up above my ears
On my head is a fleece lined knitted beanie with ear flaps.
Most important though is to keep moving. Take a stroll around the yard, keep the blood circulating.
Oh, and my latest purchase is a pair of USB heated gloves. I also have powered heat pads that I can slip into my shoes. They both can run off a separate power pack so I'm not tethered to the computer. But I'm an imager, I'm tethered to it anyway. LOLOL
