Location: Dearing, GA | Its no where close to winter here in Memphis, but it has been unseasonably cool these past two days which has me thinking of winter.
What coveralls/bibs/overalls do y'all wear for harsh winter weather, and where do you buy them?
Do you ride in them too? |

Location: London Ontario | I have used Carhartts, Tough Duck, and I now have a pair of Work Horse just cause they were cheap. I like all three to far, I usually start my day off in bibs and a jacket and usually strip down to just a jacket once I get working. They are awesome, just make sure when you wash them to get something to water proof them with. |

Location: a secret | I use ski suits/pants I find they are much more flexible to ride and move around in not bulky. Most are really warm are water and wind proof. A bit more expensive but worth it can size up and wear thermals underneath when it's really cold... |

Yep. That's when we break out the shorts. 50-100 degrees = summer. 35-50 degrees = crisp fall days
0-35 = winter annnnnnd -50 to 0 = WHY THE F DO I LIVE HERE. LOL

Location: KS | I wear the Carhardt also, can get them size to fit just about perfect. The ski pants mentioned above sound comfy, sometimes I get so confined in covs. |

| I went to the flannel lined jeans. Got them a size or so larger so I could put extra on underneath if I had to. I live in Oklahoma so just the lined jeans worked for me last winter. I found in the coveralls that I couldn't move and they actually made me colder. |

Holy cow I would die! I'm in long sleeves at 65-70 degrees. I wear sweatpants during the summer when hanging out in the house because I'll get cold with the thermostat set at 74. |

Maybe we aren't allowed to post to these weather threads cause the difference in what "cold" or "bloody cold" is to us is off the scale for most others.....just saying ....got to go feed my polar bear....

| I really like the Arctic Carhartts...the ones with the red lining. We get some pretty nasty winter weather here and they're good. |
