Some southern nations where summer time highs are above human body temperature traditionally were wearing for centuries thick cotton coats to protect themselves from excessive heat (and drink hot tea during the day - even more counter intuitive) and it works for them...
If you think about it - insulation doesn't make you warm, it just maintains your body temperature and doesn't allow it vent as efficiently.
if I had a $20 REI gift card I might buy some firestarter supplies...strikers and tinder and stuff like that
Darn Tough socks.
Jeez...gotta go look into the wool buff thing. I've got th HF original from Dutch last summer and it's an every trip carry(saved my ears this morning on a sudden, unexpected temp drop). I'm pro wool on every other piece of gear, why not this...
My wife hates you guys, just fyi
On topic: stoves. Have an alchy? Buy an esbit. Jet stove? Get a wood burner. Have all that? In titanium then. Look at the vargo xe, alchy can, esbit stand, works for utility gel...man I love stove options...
I don't know if it's all stores or just mine, but the merino wool buff is on sale. I know the printed one is on sale online for $15
Ordered it last night
You won't be disappointed with it
