I wish to go to Finland one day, I wish to test mine cold resistance against theirs. My best is -10 in a suede jacket, t-shirt, and standard cargo pants because I put my jeep into a ditch because fucking black ice.
The duration really makes the difference here. I went to school in a tshirt at - 5°C several times because I wasnt outside for mor than five minutes in one go. But I really felt it when my train got cancelled one time and I had to wait 45 minutes in the shade for the next one.
Wind and humidity also play a big role. I am fairly cold resistant but as soon as you add wind to the equation thin single linen or cotton layers become inadequate for the occasion.
About 4 hours maybe more, IDK that’s just around the amount I was bored for and there was a solid chunk of time where I just stood around like a jackass.
See that makes the Suede jacket acceptable - since the thread is about Finland, I’d personally assumed -10C when reading your comment and in that case, nothing more than a t-shirt would’ve been necessary.
Yeah -10 C is definitely t-shirt weather assuming it’s not wind-chill, seriously I hate wind-chill. Also it should be noted that I am always wearing a jacket, doesn’t matter if it’s -10 F or 95 F I am wearing a jacket.

But for how long?
Until I get really sleepy.

I’ve been outside completely naked in -35C, right out of the sauna. Would’t stay too long thought.

C or F?
