Recommended Stuff
There were a few things that really helped during the cold spell that others might like to have around.
LL Bean calls them fleece slipper socks, but they are based on a common form of Inuit mukluks (boot). The heavyweight fleece uppers have a leather sole attached, and my feet stayed warm in the house.
When I went outside I was wearing Duluth Trading’s fleece-lined jeans and their fleece vest. They both just work. They are not inexpensive, but if you have to be outside in cold weather, they are definitely worth the money. The stuff from Duluth tends to be bigger than normal, but they have decent customer service.
The other stuff I used is so old that you probably can’t buy it anymore.
