We run silk first, as a light layer, if need more then all the top layers are merino wool. Followed by wool pants is our next choice, and a berber fleece top tossed in for upper insulation, and final top layer is good wool jacket. By good I say thats next on the list, the wool we have needs a wind break, but if not windy its the cats azz, but I hear top dollar wool needs nothing to keep the wind at bay.
