Reddit mentions of ELIXIR NECK WARMER Polar Fleece Tube Scarf Cowl UNISEX, FNW-O

I've lived in Canada for 15 years and don't own a car. My work commute used to be 3 miles one way, on foot. Here's what I wear. (Links below are just to give you an idea of what things look like, because I didn't know a half-zip sweater was called a half-zip sweater.)

Head:

• Stocking cap
  
  
  Neck (inner to outer):
  
  
• Polar fleece cowl
  
• Scarf
  
  I used to wear just the scarf, but with the cowl, everything is easier to keep in place if I want to cover my face on a windy winter day.
  
  
  Upper body (inner to outer):
  
  
• Cotton undershirt
  
• Long-sleeved cotton button-down shirt with collar (office drone-style)
  
• Half-zip sweater
  
• Lined peacoat
  
  
  Hands
  
  
• Gloves. Mitts if it's really cold.
  
  
  Legs:
  
  
• Jeans
  
  Long underwear feels good when you're outside. Personally, I find it too hot when indoors. What can you do with it? Go to the bathroom and take it off? Then put it back on when you want to leave? Too much hassle for me unless we're talking -20 F or lower.
  
  
  Feet:
  
  
• Single pair of cotton socks
  
• Waterproof boots - I wear these.
  
  
  
  Protip 1: You probably don't need a big puffy coat if you wear layers.
  
  Protip 2: It's going to be cold. Your body will adapt more quickly if you resist the temptation to heat your home, etc. to tropical temperatures.
