Dress in layers on your winter-adventures!
Whether you're climbing mountains, wrestling bears or walking the dog, we have the perfect clothes for your adventures! Learn how to stay warm with these simple tricks!
Layer 1 - base layer
– The garment you wear closest to your body, such as base layers, underwear or socks. When it comes to base layers, it's primary job is to help wick moisture away and keep you warm regardless on what temperature you are in.
Think of:
The garment fit should be snug without being to tight
The garment's moisture-transporting ability
In colder weather, choose our warmest base layer - HiBall Waffle Baselayer
In warmer weather, bamboo, wool or synthetic material are preferable.
Avoid:
Cotton, as the material absorbs moisture and heats extremely poorly when it gets damp.

Layer 2 - mid layer
– Layer 2 is worn between the inner layer and the protective shell layer. The perfect mid layer transports the moisture further away from layer 1 while keeping the body heat so you wont get cold.
Think of:
The insulation of the mid layer comes from the air that the material contains.
In cold weather - use double mid layers.
In warmer weather - use a thinner mid layer.
Can be used as a lighter jacket.
Adjust layer 2 according to temperature and activity.
Both synthetic and wool materials are suitable in a mid layer.
Tip! Down heats extremely poorly when it gets wet and takes a long time to dry. Therefore, have a rain jacket ready to put over the down jacket on rainy days.

Layer 3 - shell layer
– Clothes that protect you from wind, rain and other outer elements, while retaining heat from the inner layers.

More tips
Check out our Weather Guide → for more information on how to dress depending on the season
Its better to dress in warmer clothes than in cold. You can always remove clothes during the activity.
Choose hiking/rain pants that have ventilation zippers along the legs so that you can open up if you feel hot.
Change into dry socks when you take a break. If possible, try to bathe your feet in a stream or lake during the change.
When staying overnight in cold weather - boil hot water and pour into a PET bottle and place at your feet.
