- Clark from INRugCO gives us some valuable information about how to dress for winter sports. Do you hike, snowboard, ski, mountain bike, or snowshoe during the winter months? Then learning how to properly layer clothing is an important skill to learn.
Staying warm is crucial when you are out in cold weather temperatures and knowing that right materials to wear is just as important.
In this video, we go over the types of layers and clothing that is important to wear if you plan on being outside for any time during the winter months.
Indiana and the midwest have 3-4 cold months out of the year. The winter is still a great time to go outside and be active doing winter sports. Snowmobiling, snowboarding, sledding, ice fishing, fat tire biking, hiking, cross county skiing, snowshoeing, etc, these are winter sports that people actively engage in around the Michiana area.

In the winter, I ride 90% of the time in stretch denim jeans. I find them super comfortable and warm to about 20F. In colder temps I use stretch denim jeans also ........but fleece lined. And yes layering is the key to winter fat biking. Keeping hands and feet warm in frigid temps is always a challenge, particularly because I don't like using pogies so I wear electric heated gloves under oversized fleece gloves.........perfect solution for me. Also removable liner boots are my "go to" in frigid temps. Thanks for all the useful info and ride on! BTW: another good way to beat the cold is "get out there" daily and get climatized!
Getting out there daily is a great tip, thanks!
Great content. It is funny how most rides want to upgrade their bikes, but ignore aspects like this. Proper clothing, gloves and shoes are game changing indeed.
I couldn’t agree more! It goes even beyond biking or sports. Living in a region, where the weather is harsh for 3-4 months of the year, knowing how to properly layer makes a huge difference in every day life as well.
I appreciate you watching and leaving a comment!
Great information!
Game changing.
@@MichianaMadman The store is really cool too! A lot of different things
It really is an awesome shop and they are trying to get more men in there.
great video!, how ironic is it that the sport is mainly practiced with flats, but the only very specific flat snowshoes that I am aware of are the 45NRTH, but the sole of the shoes is not very grippy at least not as the Fiveten are...
Great footwear is hard to find when it comes to winter riding.
Curious about what kind of hybrid jacket that is
Hi Mike, in the video I'm wearing an older Pearl Izumi jacket. The 2022 version is called the Canyon ECO Loft. It's been a great versatile jacket for me. Let me know if you have any other questions. Cheers.
One thing that Clark gets right but doesnt is that Cotton is actually terrible at absorbing moisture per gram of cloth, Wool, Linnen and some synthetic Fabrics can absord WAY more Moisture and therefore, not feel wet when Cotton long is soaked. Wool just gets heavier and heavier, while wicking the moisture out to basically the entire piece.
Great explanation,Thank you!
