WINTER GEAR GENERAL

WINTER IS COMING!

What gear will you be getting to face the winter in your part of the world?

I'm wanting to splash out on some really good gloves that are waterproof and can ideally layer with a liner glove.
I'd also like a hat that doubles as a balaclava. I remember seeing a Fjallraven one on here a while back.

Anybody have experience with the Carhartt "Peninsula Trapper Hat"? Looks pretty comfy tbh.

I'm facing winter right now. What have I got? Let's see...
A Carhartt WIP Chore Coat and a couple of Carhartt WIP beanies.
A bunch of Icebreaker stuff. Long johns, tracksuit pants, socks with sock liners.
A Swanndri Bush Shirt.
A pair of Merrell Moabs which I'm very pleased to find probably fit decently well after all.
An 80/20 wool sweater.
Some wool gloves which include possum fur.

Winter isn't that big of a deal here.

Got pic related last fall for $15 and it holds up great in sub-zero temperatures.
Well worth the price of looking slightly autistic.

Mein neger. I got the same coat off of ebay and I love it. I wish the storm flap had snaps instead of buttons though.

Moabs aren't great for winter. You should get some boots that are water proof not ventilated.

wrangler makes some too and they're cheep and warm but they're not of the same quality. don't wash them hot, they shrink too much and the fleece/flannel lining wears out really fast from hot water. use a cold wash... probably a good practice for any lined jeans tbh.

Winter Fuck Yeah!

Mostly the same gear as last year... new jacket (which I need to talk to my embroidery lady and have her do some artwork on real soon), and I need a new pair of boots this year. Probably pick up a few more pairs of gloves since I'm putting an order in anyways.

Sled's getting a lot of clutch work done... waiting on parts, send the primary out for some machine shop work. Once that's in, install both clutches and get them lined up, some chassis work (bushings/spacers), install new carbides that should be here tomorrow, and ... add fuel, go.

if you're frugal check out clearance sites like Sierratradingpost, Backcountry, Moosejaw, etc. They sell last year's stuff at a significant discount, especially if you're not as picky regarding the colour. Also, once you're ready to purchase search for discount codes for the website you're on, I usually get an extra 20% off and free shipping, on top of the original discount.

After the bad winter of two years ago, I was going to buy an L.L.Bean Maine Warden's parka, with a down inner coat and GoreTex outer shell (with detachable hood) but they're pretty expensive and the nearest L.L.Bean store where I could check one out, is in Chicago (and I'm in Detroit).

Ended up buying a cheep pair of insulated nylon bibs off Amazon and that along with my existing winter jacket, (Cabela's 3-Season jacket) has worked out pretty well for snowblowing and ice fishing.
