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)

    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.

      pure Cashmere or Cashmere-Wool blend is usually not as itchy (I am similarily sensitive) and work great as a in-between layer. No turtlenecks! I own a Cashmere Hoodie for instance, which is great. Unfortunately a bit more pricey but keeps you a long way if you take care of it. I lost the perfect heavy woolen cardigan to a washing accident, so need to find a new one too :/
