It's like a cross between an extensible turtleneck (with no shirt attached) and a really fitted scarf. The double layers ensure that no cold makes it to your lungs. Wonderful!<br /><br />You're right--I wouldn't recommend naked outside in this weather, and frankly, naked outside any time in Chicago is a risky proposition.<br /><br />Victoria If it’s breathing the cold air that’s trouble for you (as it is for me with my cold- and exercise-induced asthma, what fun!), you should consider getting one of those polarfleece neck gaiters.

You’re right–I wouldn’t recommend naked outside in this weather, and frankly, naked outside any time in Chicago is a risky proposition.

However, it's important to note that Rochester is a driving city. So I haven't spent this much time walking out in the cold in quite a while. Since my undergraduate in fact. So yes, I've definitely gone a little soft. However there's a difference between being a little soft and running naked through the snow.<br /><br />And your right, trudging through snow is a great exercise. The blood’s pretty thick.

And your right, trudging through snow is a great exercise.

It's a mixed blessing for you not to have to shovel--every time I feel a little chill (my house has no intramural insulation), I just go out and clear the walk again to warm up. At the rate the snow's falling, I'll have met the government's guidelines for moderate-to-vigorous exercise for the week by the end of the day.<br /><br />Cheers and hot cocoa,<br />Victoria I would’ve thought someone from Rochester would have somewhat thicker blood!
