I am looking for a good winter base layer -- something to keep me warm while I walk from the car to the office or a store, etc... (and also for doing outdoors stuff)
I've tried the Under Armour ColdGear --- nice stuff, but way too thin to block the cold -- only way to stay warm is to be really active.
I looked at the SmartWool, but it is $75+ PER section... and it is made in China...
Today I picked up a Patagonia Capilene 3 top and bottom, $45 each side - going to give those a try next time it falls in the low 40s.
I've heard Duofold is decent... their prices range from $16-$35 each side -- not sure which model of those to get yet... it will likely be the $35 model with my luck....
So what does the forum like?
