I just purchased the Sarma TST thermal Clock. I have to say, this is by far one of the BEST pieces of kit I own, and i have alot of gear. I tested it the other night, I set up a 5X7 Kifaru Sheep Tarp (excellent piece of kit as well) and used an old thermarest sleeping pad which I've owned since 1991, and just used the Sarma TST Cloak to sleep in. I wore just wool socks, pair of sweat pants, long sleeve sweat shirt and wool hat. It dropped to °19 F and the cloak kept me warm and dry. This cloak and Kifaru sheep tarp will always be with me during my winter bushcraft adventures & hikes should i get stuck over night, get hurt, turned around/lost etc, this will do the job and keep me alive.
@@varusteleka Next ill probably be getting your Sarma TST RP80 Recon Pack, that thing looks great. Luke from the outdoor gear review did an excellent test and review on it and said it was one of the most comfortable military packs he ever tested.

It`s snowing and he`s just wearing long johns and a super thin turtleneck under his shell? Was he doing sprints just before shooting? How is he warm enough? I have the L2 long johns and the L1 shirt. There's no way I'd be out in that without a thick sweater and a jacket.
That's pretty much the maximum layers I use when on the move with skis, up to -15°C. Otherwise it gets too hot and I start sweating which isn't a good thing when in cold.
if you're moving you don't need a puffy layer -- you only need that when you're resting/not moving -- unless it's below -15°C (5°F) -- when wearing the puffy layer you also need to slow down so you don't sweat as much.
Tämänkaltaiset videot kiinnostaa. Ois hienoo jos tekisitte vaatetusohjeistuksen vaikka 5 celsiusasteen välein. eli mitä päälle kun liikutaan ettei tule kylmä ja mitä päälle paikalla ollessaan ettei tule kylmä
if you're out camping, it's very important to stay warm at all times, but not to the point of sweating. so you add and remove layers as needed. temperatures therefore are not so important.
I got -2c or 28F outside now. so I would use longjohns, a sweater, pants, a shirt and a wind jacket if i was moving. put on a termojacket for rest. even if it goes down to -12 c or 10F my way of dressing would not change. some pepole looks like they are going to arctics as soon as it hits Oc or 32F.
We Finns just need L1 underwear when bbqing sausages in (Northern Finnish) winter. Only when it gets below -30 I will start to use socks with my sandals. Perkele.
And when you reach level 7 you gotta fight a boss battle that is someone working in Varusteleka
TheFranss I'm on board with this.
He comes out wearing nothing but tube socks and a gas mask, wielding two entrenching tools
UsedMeat don't forget his NVA body condom that can't be pierced. Only when he does his charge move and it comes loose can you damage him.

I wish he had taken an awkward 5 second pause after saying hello to just stare at the camera before the next cut.
This takes winter-wearing to the next level!

Real deal tactical Nomad operational
info , thanks mate ! Cheers !!🍀👍🍀
Men I like the Finns they are top notch fighters respect from Poland.
Would love to try the sarma tst clothes out to bad i cant afford em. Seams like very good quality
I liked this ad, I wish I had the money to grab some of the kit on your website, I like the knives!
been trying to get a hold of one of those cloaks all year!
Should be coming soon, right in time for the summer... 😅
HEY YOU GUYS !!!!
🏴 love from Scotland 🏴
Well for sure keep you warm no matter what!
That's a nice Finnish robot you have there, Varusteleka. It almost manages real human emotions. It even does a cool robotic voice. Is it for sale?
You need to get Finnish friends and go the woods with them. You'll get the experience for free!
@@varusteleka there is one drawback that is getting mouthful of fishcock

Time for a new video on laying. How do you incorporate the Sarma TST Woolshell jacket into the layering system?
it's a shell -- so you use it instead of the shell jacket and pants he is using in the video (level 4)
@@IrregularPineapples Is the shell wind or moisture resistant?
@@David-vg1wl normally the shell is made mostly of cotton which makes it breathable (good when you're active) and abrasion resistant (good when moving through branches) -- it's OK against wind (but not what you would call windproof because it's designed to be breathable) -- it's not very good vs rain but is good with moisture because it breathes and lets out perspiration -- cotton shells are not fire resistant but won't melt (sparks from fire can create holes) -- cotton is very good at absorbing water and moisture and can work as towels better than any other fabric -- they make for a great all around shell fabric for average weather -- additionally cotton is the only fabric you can enhance with wax to make it more wind and water proof.
a wool shell is warmer, even more breathable and excellent against moisture and rain -- but it's worse against wind (it lets more air through -- wind will feel colder) and it's not as good against abrasion (branches will more easily snag and tear down wool) -- wool is also excellent against fire (sparks from fire almost never create holes) -- due to the microscopic makeup of wool fibers it doesn't smell because bacteria has a hard time living there (this is also why most wool is itchy) -- merino wool is a finer wool that is less itchy but still resistant to bacterial growth (bad smells) -- great as base layers and insulation
the third big category is synthetic (plastic) -- these are usually of windproof or insulation variety -- synthetics can do most of the jobs of cotton or wool depending on its construction and is the only fabric that can be 100% water proof and non-breathable -- except fire -- they are extremely susceptible to fire and are never, EVER, worn by firefighters (as an example) -- sparks from fire will instantly melt and create large holes -- can cause severe burns -- they tend to smell more than other fabrics after use because the microscopic fibers are smooth and bacteria is able to setup shop there more easily -- great for most things except near fire -- the only material that can be stretchy and tight fitting
then we have combinations...
Oh damn, the L stands for level and not layer...
Mind = blown
Im almost at lv50😎
Good ;-)
tää oli hyvä äijä

Very good very Finnish
I like how he's wearing a woodland camo in the snow lol
And somhow u not find him, before the snow start speak finnish 😂
it's the Finnish cold weather camouflage pattern, it's officially issued to the FDF, so it must be tested and approved
You didnt see his 2 finnish friends doing the same thing, so thats why one of them had "woodland"

komia reppu!
he ain't freezing that's for sure
how cold is it when you need all that stuff.
if you really need all that i think it has to be like -15 C or colder :D
-30.
So cold that cars will catch on fire. On their own.

Fins are cool people. Just the way he talked made me scared..
I like that most of the cold weather gear at Varusteleka is more appropriate for a European "winter", and not the ball-crushing cold of Canada.
Trent Gerein who woulda thunk that a finnish store sells a lot of winter gear for finnish weather
Just add more layers lol.

Gekkibi -30? Only if spring has come early!
Yes, I only use socks with sandals when it's spring...
