Wabo, Here's what works for me in extreme cold.

1) Stay inside..I found it works quite well. If I do have to venture out:

2) Dress in layers; Moisture wicking base layers, then wool or heavy weight fleece, topped of with a Parka with a hood and wind breaking membrane. A Blaclava for the head/face. Two pair of socks, one moisture wicking the other heavy wool. Pack boots with felt liners. Don't forget the chopper mitts and liners for your hands.

Notice the term moisture wicking appears several times. That eliminates cotton.
