When participating in any Outdoor Activity it’s important to Dress Appropriately and this is especially true for Winter Adventures!

How to Dress Warm:   Buy purchasing yourself proper winter clothing, it will enable you to partake in outdoor winter activities for years to come while staying comfortable, warm and dry. Stores that carry such clothing our: MEC, SALE, Canadian Tire, Marks Work Warehouse, and many more outdoor stores.

We’ve listed below some of our Top Tips for Dressing Right for Winter Adventure:

  • Dress in layers so that you can easily add or remove layers throughout the trip to regulate your temperature as needed.
  • Bring more layers that you think you’ll need, you can always remove them during the trip.
  • water resistant / warm Winter Jacket.
  • Nylon or Winter Snow Pants.
  • Comfortable, loose fitting pants, they even sell insulated pants
  • Long underwear, an easy replacement for long underwear is flannel PJ pants.
  • Long sleeve undershirt
  • a warm outer layer shirt
  • warm, WOOL socks, why wool, because wool is warm, even when wet.
  • Winter Boots.  Not dress-up boots but WINTER BOOTS.
  • Warm Mittens or Gloves ( mittens are warmer than gloves, plus your fingers will have some friends to play with)
  • Warm Wool Hat.  If it is extremely cold you can get a hat that even covers your face, great for robbing banks.
  • Scarf.  A long wool scarf can make you extra warm.
  • Bring a pair of shades… Yes, it’s even brighter in the winter!
  • You know yourself best, if you get cold easily bring extra layers.
  • We will be exercising so you will most likely get quite warm out there… Don’t forget to remove layers before you get too hot!
  • Ladies, no yoga pants, unless they are being used a your under layer and topped with warm pants or snow pants.
  • Guys, no running shoes.  We are tired of watching you freeze.

Imagine what winter will be like when you have all these winter cloths to enable you to enjoy winter fun !
