Frist Layer

[Mr. Pike1]

I pretty much have my standard ice uniform. It varies a bit depending on the temp. My question is does anyone have a favorite first layer. There is so much new Ice Armor etc out there and most and a pretty high price point. I was looking at picking up something. Any feedback on what you find to be your go to first layer for fighting the cold and also allowing you to breath.

yes its called under armour cold gear ,, just go buy some ,, Ill put my money on you liking it!!

[Captain B.R.K]

Under Armor Cold Wear is great stuff and would highly recommend it.

I too put that on as a first layer and have been very happy with it's performance. It keeping me comfortable on the ice.

fleece would be best

Any type of polypropylene under ware should suffice you want something that will wick away the moisture from your skin

Ditto here. You don't need to spend a fortune. All the under armour stuff is great but any polypropolene or moisture wicking layer is going to work well. Silk is another one that suposidly wicks well (although I've not used silk) And there are many variations. I'm as happy with my el cheapo brand polypropolene as I am with my spendy Pattagonia poly.

Silk weight next to your skin is the best.. then you can either go with a medium weight poly or even a medium fleece... and then so on and so on...
