Quote: CVPost-Richard G. (quoted from post at 13:33:06 01/12/22) What kind of thermal underwear and boots do yall use to stay warm?

My legs and feet get cold when it gets down to freezing here in NW SC.

I know getting older does not help matters.

I can't imagine South Carolina getting really cold, but I'll give you my 2 cents as someone who's lived in the North all my life. Wool! I wear poly/wool long johns, heavy wool pants if it's -10F or lower, turtle neck, sweatshirt with wool vest, a knee length Swedish surplus parka, wool lined chopper mitts with light wool gloves under them, a wool, brimmed hat with ear flaps, a wool scarf if needed. For my feet I used surplus "Mickey Mouse" boots for years, but they tear my knees up. So I'm back to pack boots, American made Lacrosse "Icemans" with a wool liner and 2 pair of wool socks. Probably overkill for South Carolina, but if I'm out in -20F weather on an open tractor in a 20mph breeze... I don't freeze!





The vast majority of my stuff I buy for cheap off Ebay and it lasts for decades. There's a big difference between going from the house to the heated cab and calling it being outside and actually working out in the weather for hours at a time. It depends on what you're doing, but layers work.

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and ... [Read Article]
