I get all my winter gear at LL Bean........
There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

The long underwear I have now I bought at Gander Mountain.
Now, if you REALLY want to stay warm, here's a couple of tips. First, visit an outdoor supply store. Those people tend to use undergarments - especially for the lower half. The sweater stuff helps too. Second, visit a motorcycle accessory shop. Bikers stay warm using outer clothing from head to toe.
Here's what I typically wear for a ride when it's cold enough to warrant the full gear...
First layers:
Good socks
Longjohns
Jeans
T-shirt
Sweatshirt
Outer layers:
Tour Master pants w/ both liners (see link above)
Insulated boots
Fieldsheer Quatro jacket (the neon green-yellow model!)
Form fitting thin mask that fits under helmet
Fleece neck warmer tucked into gap between chin and helmet
Heavy insulated gloves.
By the time I'm done, I've put on 20 pounds, and need to get outside just to keep from overheating!
