Waterproof Clothing Starts With Waterproof Snow Pants
09 November 2009
A waterproof, breathable bib pant is the place to start to build a warm, comfortable, versatile winter clothing system. The snow pant should be made of waterproof, breathable materials that allow air circulation, repel rain and snow, and aid in moving moisture away from the body. A liner made of an insulation material rated for the lowest temperature expected by the user is worn under the waterproof snow pant shell. A waterproof clothing system like this protects elite dog sled racers in competitions like the Iditarod or Yukon Quest. This is the system that keeps the scientific crews in Antarctica warm. It is simply the best waterproof clothing system available.
