[QUOTE="bigbrownhen, post: 763920, member: 20495"] I can't stand to wear a hat. I use the ear covers(headband type) and have a scarf for those really cold windy days. The scarf is one you can wrap around your neck or open it and pull over your head and be able to use like a balaclava face mask. It's brown and fuzzy, my hubby calls it "Mr. Snuffalufagus". This thing is unbelieveably warm and versatile. I use turtle necks under my UPS shirt, black or brown, not white, the collars get too dirty. I haven't tried the under armor ones, think I may splurge on them this year though. I have the UPS jacket that is water resistant and a removable liner that came with it, works good enough for me. Wearing layers is vital, you can add or remove as the temperatures change throughout the day. As for gloves, I just use the little cheapy ones (not jersey) you can get 2 pair for a couple of bucks. They will last a couple months usually. I go through about 4 pair a season. They fit tight enough to work the Diad and are warm enough and are great for small hands. Most gloves are too big for us ladies. I have a pair of Danner boots for winter. They are pricey, but will last a few years. Good wicking socks are also vital. [/QUOTE]
