What types of cloth i should wear when visit clod countries?
I am from Canada. For more than half the year we are freezing, and I can help with the type of clothing you should wear. Always wear a coat, hat, and gloves. Remember: wet=cold=bad. Also remember: Wool is warm even when wool is wet. 1: When you are going to be outside for long time in the cold, you should wear these layers: wicking (which will soak up any sweat preventing it from cooling you, an example would be long johns), warming (to keep you warm, an example would be a wool sweater, because wool is warm even when wool is wet), and waterproofing (you must stay dry if you don't want to freeze. An example would a be a coat or waterproof boots). 2: If you are going to a very wet and snowy place (the maritimes) you will want to wear snow pants or splash pants, the most waterproof gloves you can possibly get, waterproof boots, and most importantly, wool socks. Remember: wool is warm even when wool is wet. 3: If you are going to cold places with less snow, you can go without snow pants, but try not to get wet. However, these places can be deceptively cold, so wear a smaller pair of gloves underneath the ones you should have on, and maybe two pairs of socks. 4: If you are going to the incredibly cold but beautiful polar regions (might I suggest Nunavut), you're going to wear an extremely thick parka and ski gloves (expensive, but totally worth it) AND snowpants. I suggest doubling up on sweaters socks and gloves.
