I agree - a proper leather or sheepskin Jerkin is a very useful outdoor garment I find - gives the arms room to work but insulates the torso. Often much better than a coat - especially with a warm shirt underneath
Whats your favourite piece of winter clothing?

Got a fleecy buff thing (its like a fleecy neck tube and it urinates on the poxy Shemagh thing I previously had from a great height) and I think I got it for free with Superbike Magazine years ago.
Best motorcycle mag freebee ever. The sidestand pucks were handy though.

I really like my dachstein jumper if just sitting about outside, other wise it gets a tad warm, I really love the merino/possum fur beanies, and Swedish army wool scarf as its not Dr. Who sized and they are cheap too.
Shorts ant t-shirt....
Well I am in Saudi.
Seriously though, I've got a M65 jacket that gets broken out in winter for the mornings (It actually does get cold here sometimes), and a fleece lined waistcoat from B&Q.
Back in the UK, it's a down filled bodywarmer. very light, very cosy.

Well I know it looks like a blatent sale pitch but it isn't
For me it is my wool bushshirt with a woolpower base layer and Dutch army HH fleece , worked really well in Lapland warm and self ventilating .
Red that sheepskin body warmer looks the biz ...

Having lived in my twodogs wool boreal shirt this last week I reckon its gonna be a firm favourite this year.
Buffalo Special Six in combo with Woolpower 200 grams. Easy to ventilate, windproof, good price.
That looks really nice.
I'd imagine it lets you work without getting too hot.
It is a toss up between my gloves and my boots.
When working outdoors I need my feet to be cosy,my hands stay pretty comfy through the work.
While out for shopping or some other boring mundane activity then gloves tend to take priority...........
unless we are snowed in..... then it is both, extremities need looking after, layers look after my core, arms and legs.

Hi.
Im pretty sure the TwoDogs bush shirt/parka will be in my favourites from this year! Im really looking forwad to testing it out so we need some nice cold weather!
That sheepskin waist coat looks great!
I forgot to put my RN wool duffel coat in there too!
Last year I tried out a pair of army sleeping bag/tent foot warmers. (I think that's what they are called). Kept my feel real cosy!
