    LPH and BSG - I've done both of what you suggested in the past in temps below 20F. Thing is, once I get moving, I hate having my neck covered....I just get too hot. And this is ONLY when I'm exercising, otherwise I'm a big fan of turtlenecks and scarves and such for non-active situations.

    What I need is a jacket with a big stand up collar. Then I can wear it up over my lower face while I'm cold and then unzip it down to my chest as I warm up. I actually kind of did this with my Icebreaker top. If the neck were slightly longer, it would have been perfect!

    CA - yeah, I looked at the amfib gloves and they seemed too much for me. I'd rather just layer in a wool or cashmere liner if it's really cold. I even have amfib booties that I've never used...I just don't get THAT cold (usually).

    I do like the booties. And the tights. But don't wear the tights when it's above 40 or you'll burn up!
