go to postie plus and buy some thermals in NATO GREEN they cheap as chips (under $20) wear pair of the leggings under pair of rugger shorts from warehouse (again cheap)
hot day its now a airmesh type top...colder day polar fleece either a tee shirt or long sleeved. the warehouse tees are lighter weight than others so good on warmer days. top to toe pack long sleave top is light and ok on all but really warm days,if it gets cooler I stick a tee over it. vest over that if cold,rain proof coat tops it off on wet day.
warehouse kids widebrimmed school hat is awesome out in open on sunny day and surprisingly good when its persisting down as it keeps water off shoulders n neck too. polarfleece beanie,gloves and Crawford/neck scarf go in day bag....... the crawford is by far the best piece of kid ever for those really cold days.
along with washing tips given above...FFS hang cloths INSIDE OUT on washing line,they fade in sunlight and that pattern you paid so much for lasts for years if it doesnt get sunburnt everytime it gets washed.the difference is very noticable.
mustnt forget ashley laceup gumboots and gaiters. if its persisting down and cold and you wearing trousers stick your gaiters over boots like normal but wear trousers OVER TOP so water runs down the fabric and onto boots then ground instead of filling your boots up,its amazing how long your feet stay dry this way.
