Fellow winter rider here, hailing from Alaska! Good advice couple things to add and or expand on. I'm a fan of the Carhart lined as well but I just rock the jeans. The liner in the pants is like a pajama type- super comfy plus they have other colors like black. Black keeps from showing stains etc. Thats what we wear for work pants. For footwear I would suggest ones with a little extra room in the toe box if you have longer, colder rides. I find the extra room to wiggle my toes for warmth helps since you cant really move your feet. -Keep Stokin'-
I switched out my wrist guards for good motorcycle gloves. I feel like the wrist guards would have better protection for OWing, but the motorcycle gloves are much warmer.
Greatly appreciate this video, def wanna get the right gear to continue one wheeling comfortably in the cold. Seeing u OW in NY gives me confidence that I can continue to commute confidently in NC with the right equipment.
the TAC pants look sick! wish they came in black tho... i love my fullfinger flatland carbons, they arent the warmest gloves but theyre rly nice. i end up wearing so much more gear in the cold haha
I'm in FL, this morning it was 38 degrees with 80% humidity. My setup was a nice decently thick hoodie, neck gaiter, TFL windbreaker jacket, REI trailmade pants which are windproof, and long johns thermal layer underneath them. Oh and my Ombraz glasses which kept most of the wind out of my eyes but some still got in and my eyes teared up from the cold. That Carhart overalls and TFL TAC pants look great but they'd probably be too hot for FL 10 months out of the year.
I have Raynaud's disease so my hands are always frozen and after about 10 mins on the wheel in the cold my hands hurt so much i have to turn around. Got a pair of the F(x)nction full fingers and even with those im trying to figure out a pair of heated gloves to fit underneath lol. BBut for normal people without hands made of ice there great :D Oh well it's only cold only almost half the year, that's not too long right? lol

I ride with a full face helmet and a snowboard jacket for winter riding. Anything to block the wind is huge in staying warm.
Another great video 🙌🏼🛞💯

I like my tac pants my only complaint is the front pockets being so tight. Thanks for the tip I will definitely be looking for some carhartt overalls.
Love love love my T.A.C. Pants!
*Yes dude!*
🤙🏽⚡️🤟🏽⚡️👌🏽
My fingers and toes go numb when it's super cold, and as I get older I feel I need more upper body layers lol.

Bro I literally just asked about cold weather gear in the OW Owners FB group a couple days ago.
