For some reason I find vests, and specifically down vests very comfortable. I know that some of you have problems with polyester though, so I’d love to hear about your comfy clothes! (I kinda wanna test out some new stuff)

100% cotton in layers.
I like loose clothes - baggy chinos or cargo pants (or shorts made out of old pants that have started ripping out at the knees) and t-shirts, henleys, chamois work shirts, zippered (never pullover) hooded sweatshirts and down vests. I add layers in the fall (I generally max out at six in the dead of winter) and subtract them in the spring.
Do you feel more comfortable with less or more layers? I personally always keep my thinner jacket on me cuz i don’t like seeing my hairy arms…
Shaveing them is an option. I (30M) just did for my legs. Fuck societal norms, do what you feel is right for you.
Trust me, I’m on it!
More, definitely.
Even in the summer, as soon as I can get away with it, I go to a second layer. I prefer two light layers over one heavy one.
That’s my go-to as well, loose fit and lots of cotton layers. For the colder seasons, if there’s at least 2 layers of tshirt and longsleeve I also throw some woolen pieces and a down vest on top, it’s surprisingly warm, breathy and comfy to wear even if it’s minus degrees out.
I like wool, but I don’t currently own any. It’s of very limited use, since it itches abominably.
It strikes me though - I should keep my eyes open for a good, heavy wool cardigan. In the winter, I wear some number of t-shirts/henleys plus a chamois shirt and a hooded sweatshirt, then some top layer - either a down vest or coat. A big, heavy wool cardigan would work well for that top layer too.
