Seal Skins merino liner socks
Seal skins waterproof merino socks

BTW - the thread's a bit pointless without indicating what temp you're dressing up for. I wear entirely different gear for -10C to 0C to +10C. Even -10C to -5C removes a layer.

Just a thought

Toasty, if not somewhat poncy.

So, does the combined value of your clothing (excl. watch) exceed the value of your bike?

Yesterday I was in bibtights, sheepskin boots, fleece socks, dress, fleece and a waxed jacket. Oh and some gloves.

lastant

Pretty similar to iPete's set-up - for me it's...

Gore Path Jacket (if it's raining / snowing / sleeting)
or a Gore Phantom II Softshell (if it's not!)

Merino Buff (Balaclava style)
Canterbury 'cold' short sleeved baselayer
Bib-shorts
Santini Roubaix Leg-warmers
Surface shorts
Woolie Boolie socks
Pro X-Pert WP Gloves

Could do with getting some overshoes or winter boots, but will see how I get on and work on that for next year I reckon...

Inside helmet, two Buff ski "snoods" for toasty double layer effect.

Top half - two base layers (one from Decathlon), a Decathlon fleece and on top an Altura night vision top in glorious hi-viz yellow.

Bottom half - Tschibo ski long johns, Lidl padded tights on top (vintage 2005)

Feet - Decathlon socks, Shimano MTB shoes.

My middle name is Cheapskate, by the way, but this stuff does the job.

Happy sliding chaps!
