Do you own long johns?

Not anymore. It isn’t cold enough here. Living in Upstate New York, I lived in silk long Johns during the winter.

I live several states south of the DC area and wear Uniqlo heatech leggings and long sleeves or turtlenecks regularly in the winter. They make a world of difference.

I wear them now for walks here. Its so much better especially with the wind. I get the 100% cottons ones but DH swears by the cotton/poly blend ones.

I wear heattech from Uniqlo or the 32 degrees brand. They are thin enough to wear under pants. It’s been very cold in December.

I wear thick, stretchy tights under pants all winter long. Much warmer!

Yes because I walk the dogs early morning and evening every day.

Yes, several pairs in different weights. I spend a lot of time outdoors, including going camping in sub-freezing temps. So I mostly own them for camping, skiing, etc. But since I have them ... if it's chilly out, I'll wear them under my work clothes (my office gets cold), under a lightweight pair of pants on the weekend, or for hanging out around the fire pit on a cold evening.

For lightweight, the Costco brand is pretty good. If I need more insulation, I use wool.

+1.

Absolutely not - I’m from out west and this is just absurd. Why can people not dress appropriately here?

I do not even wear them sub zero - layers people, layers.

Yes. From Costco. I have dogs so I’m out walking a lot.

Same.

I do have a knee length down coat that I wear when it's below 20 degrees.

This is why I'm concerned for the future.

Um, are we talking about the same thing? Long johns is just another name for "base layer".

-Also from out west
