Merino Clothing (base layers, etc)

Have a look at M&S merino wool thermals, that what I use on the motorbike when going traveling to the really cold places.

Its around £30 for a set and I find them to be comfortable and warm.

My Dad was speaking to a roofer who did a lot of climbing and mountaineering (all three of which combine wind wet cold and exposed) last year and this guy recommended M&S thermals over all the other expensive brands. I had forgotten about the recommendation I'll check them out this year. Ta.
